  • Peaceful, well-maintained and family-run park in a central setting
  • Safe direct access link to the Shropshire Union Canal for strolls
  • Fish at two fishing lakes for a fee; bar serving food on site
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.

Kaz A.

Sunny Field powered grass campsite

Liked Beautiful park. Lots of touring caravans with no one in them so this day was really quiet which we loved. Friday and Saturday there were a few people. This is mid September.
The staff at Coole fisheries are amazing. Answered enquiries immediately via messenger. Food amazing and bar and grounds so pretty and vast.

Disliked No one at the shop or reception so have to phone for any enquiries like password to wifi. No one about to help. Snack van never opened as specified either. I did email to ask but no one answered.
Disabled shower is useless. Too small for my carer to help me and seat out of shower not inside which is pointless.Shower comes on for a few seconds so impossible to wash plus no removable shower head.
Disabled toilet is ok I guess but barely.
The worst thing which is common but such a problem for wheelchairs is that it’s impossible to get across. I managed to get across the grass and some empty caravan pitches at the fishery and make it to the pub but never got to see the lakes.
There’s also a grass section in the middle so children congregate and play games and squeal which drove me mad
For £42 a night I would have expected better customer service and better facilities for disabled people

Liz R.

Powered gravel and cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Very welcoming. Nice size fully serviced pitch. Everywhere very clean and tidy. Very peaceful location, some nice walks from site to the marina or if you want bit longer along the canal into Audlem. Had Sunday lunch in the Stagger Inn the onsite pub, it was delicious and very reasonably priced.

Disliked The showers were nice and hot but they don't stay on at all. Had to keep my hand on the push switch on shower to keep it on which is a bit annoying when trying to wash.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Nice site, with a pub that sells food. Close to plenty of walks and local towns

Disliked Shop and catering van wasnt open much in Sept this year so had to purchase breakfast from the pub which is quite expensive. Easily resolved by being more prepared though.

Liked The site was beautiful and well maintained onsite bar which served food..staff were friendly and made you feel welcome

Disliked Confusion over the fishing...pitch up says guests can fish at a cost....Nope that wasn't the case..on arrival we was told we couldn't fish 2 of the lakes as they were fully booked that you have to book in advance..pitch up doesn't state that...very disappointed

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.
