Lovely site near the lake08/13/2024

    We really liked the layout of the campsite, which is well kept and landscaped, also each pitch had its own bit of privacy and space. It is also really close to the lake and canal walks.

    Disliked: 

    There is a lack of phone signal across the site. However not a huge issue as nice to not use our phones so much.
    Also a lot of midgies but to be expected when near water at this time of year and had no bites.

    Campsite had lot of variable pitches, some with views, some in quite little spots. Good walks to Ellesmere straight off the campsite. Lots of other attractions within an easy drive.

Great facilities but not for us08/12/2024

    The setting, the facilities and the hosts.

    Disliked: 

    The fact that there was a rowdy flag bearing group next to us having a party until gone past 11pm talking at the top of their voices, women cackling and swearing showed us that this was not the serene peaceful camp as advertised! The first night I had 2hrs sleep and my husband had to ask them to keep the noise down (which they didn’t) and the 2nd night we had to sleep in our van to deaden the noise because the party continued. Our weekend was spoilt because we really wanted peace and quiet and to be able to relax. The website said no hen parties etc are allowed, that’s why we chose it! Don’t get me wrong, we are in our early 50s, but we’re also cool, done it all and worn the t shirt old skool and traveled the world. We wouldn’t be moaning unless it was bad. For a campsite, the noise from this one group hijacked our weekend. Yes we could have found another pitch, but after driving then spending an hour putting up our tent and arranging stove, beds etc we just didn’t think we should have to, and didn’t expect it to go on for 2 nights. We probably won’t stay again, just because despite what the site says, peace and quiet is not guaranteed.

From the manager...

Hi Jasmine ,

Thanks' for your review ! I am fully aware of the six people your referring to as I received a text from you highlighting the people in question ! On the first night my wife & I walked the site around 12.00 & didn't see anything untoward ! Just people talking around a camp fire which of course we allow !The second evening my wife & I actually went to talk the party again ! And again ,they were talking around the camp fire ! We left them around 12.00 when they were all going to bed ! I appreciate some people by nature talk louder than others , but we really can't stop people talking !! As I saw it they were not doing anything wrong ! You will be very hard pressed to find a site quieter than ours ! You must realise that August is all sites busiest time ! From the months September through to June such is the scope & nature , It is possible to find pitches here 50m away from anyone else , so I really do think your over reacting !

Many thanks

Dave Allen

    Everything was lovely and clean and in a beautiful setting with Ellesmere lake just through a gate so great for walking, the hosts also gave you a map of the local area and walks and on the back were places to visit and activities near by,showers and toilets clean,lovely hosts David and Ingrid very helpful and friendly. The site is also dog friendly and offers other types of accommodation so you don't need to own a Caravan/Motorhome or Tent to use this site.
