What customers say
Big, family-friendly spot with a pool, play areas & entertainment. Guests love the spacious pitches, friendly staff & clean loos. Some mention dated facilities & noise from fellow campers on busy weekends. Management is sorting out shower block lights.

A lovely place to stay, we will definitely be back.
Fully-serviced grass and gravel pitch (super)
Liked Lovely site with good facilities, absolutely incredible staff who don't hesitate to help, the wardens were fantastic. Lots of different type of pitches so some would be louder than others. Two good parks for kids and a great ' no photo' policy at the swimming pool. Great area to do washing up.
Disliked It would be nicer to have a longer slot in the pool as 45 minutes isn't that long for a larger family however we appreciate you are trying to accommodate everyone.

Retro
Electric grass pitch (large, no pets)
Liked Great location an hour outside of wales/chester. Enjoyed the friendly geordies on site and the majority of the staff were helpful and friendly. Big pitch on orange field, lots of parks and farm animals for the kids and a pool. Entertainment was decent, shop onsite and cafe serving good, basic food. Major plus is the campers actually seemed to respect the quiet hours too, maybe the 24/7 wardens and owners on site make some think twice. Overall great experience, would be great for families with little ones.
Disliked Quite a retro vibe, feels like it could do with modernising. Showers I would have appreciated a mixer so you can choose the temperature.
