  • Peaceful, well-maintained and family-run park in a central setting
  • Safe direct access link to the Shropshire Union Canal for strolls
  • Fish at one of the two specimen lakes for a fee; bar serving food
Cheshire countryside, anyone? In a setting that's quite rightly been pointed out as central to pretty much anywhere? Easily sorted when pitching up at Sunny Side Touring Park. Set in green countryside with loads of open space, this site is central indeed: it's about 20 minutes by car to the Welsh border from here, 45 minutes to Wrexham, 50 to Shrewsbury and Chester, an hour to Alton Towers, and an hour and 15 minutes to both Liverpool and Manchester. And if you're after a peaceful base where you don't want to wander far at all? Also easily sorted, as Sunny Side Touring Park's Nantwich setting is metres from the Shropshire Union Canal for spectacularly scenic strolls or bike rides along the water. There's also a warm, welcoming bar serving delicious food on site. On site, there are two specimen fishing lakes where guests can fish for an extra cost. They stock carp up to 40 pounds and catfish up to 70 pounds. The site is family-run, quiet and relaxed. Barbecues and campfires (off-ground only) are both allowed, and logs are for sale on site. Sort other supplies a couple of miles away in the friendly little village of Audlem, where there are restaurants and pubs as well as shops. A handy utilities room on site gives guests access to a washing machine, washing-up sinks, a microwave and a kettle.

This clean, well-kept campground has roomy, level sites & friendly staff. Enjoy the peaceful vibe, great views & on-site pub. Canal walks are a hit! Showers are clean but limited & timed. Great for anglers.

Liked Location excellent
On site pub
Pitch sizes

Disliked Chemical waste and grey waste being so far away from pitch (our porch was around lake) appreciate these pitches are intended for statics long term but as they are presently being used for tourers it would be nice to have something installed around this area

From the manager: Hi Thank you for the review
It does say on pitchup confirmation that you are a walk to the facilities and also when you book. Its not really that far it doesn't take 5 mins to get there. We do also have a chemical disposal point on our adult only pitches on the main fishery touring pitches. The lakeside pitches are intended for fishing enthusiast. With saying that most people who book on the main touring park request to stay on the lakeside pitches as its so beautiful on those pitches
Hope we see you again x

Sunny Field powered grass campsite

Liked Site was lovely and clean, staff very helpful. Facilities very clean.

Disliked The facilities were nice and clean, but more are needed and need to be much closer to the tenting area on the field. It’s quite a trek to have to make as they are right at the entrance.

Paradise lake powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite (adults only, lake view)

Liked Nice site with bar, food & fishing

Disliked Unfortunately there are rules in place but they are not enforced.
Camping in Coolacres is stated adults only - lots of kids
No entering fishing area without adult - lots of kids fishing without adults
Kids screaming and running around at 11:30pm and then again at 5:30am
Could be a really good site but unfortunately it’s not

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review. Sorry its not for you. i din't hear kids screaming or running around until 11.30.And i did stop the one kid that was talking quite loud to his brother. obviously you will see and hear kids as its only the pitches on the lake that are adult only not the rest of the park

Local attractions

The canal and a public footpath alongside are steps from the site. From Nantwich, stroll the couple of miles along the level canal towpath for views over town and the Cheshire countryside, passing the Chester Road viaduct and many moored and cruising narrowboats (to get truly envious, lurk around the marina at Basin End). A couple of pubs at Audlem overlook the canal if/when you require a pitstop. To dive into all things canal and have a natter on the same with knowledgeable types, drop into the Nantwich Canal Centre within 10 minutes' drive. You could also have mightily peaceful potters around the town's shops and wine bars, or the market that runs most days. The leisure centre has an outdoor saltwater pool for dips. Another market town is at Whitchurch, 20 minutes' drive away and two miles from the Welsh border. It's well worth a wander to see its 100+ listed buildings, and to bag foodie supplies from the specialty shops in town: cheese and pork pies are the top picks to hunt down here. From Whitchurch, you can take the train to Manchester, reachable in an hour to the north, or Shrewsbury, half an hour south.
