Oakwood Campsite

Ik was blij met: Modern and clean. All very new. Lovely lady who met us on arrival. Clean and tidy all round. Big sky so lovely views looking up at night.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Few minor issues need to be looked at. No grey waste disposal. Wash basin in bathroom was one big one rather than individual, which didn’t seem appropriate. No separate tap to clean toilet waste. It’s a lovely site. Felt like it needed ‘finishing off’.

Van de manager: Hi Andrew, Thank you for your comments. I am sorry I did not specify the grey waste, as there is somewhere to put it. Washbasins are installed now, so I'm sorry you don't like them. There is a tap right next to the chemical waste store as other guests asked for it and I installed it recently. I look forward to seeing you again.

Ik was blij met: The shower and toilet block was the cleanest I have ever seen. All facilities were of the highest quality. It was warm and bright. Welcoming site owner, who asked if we needed local information. She stayed and chatted which was lovely. Pitches level and roomy. Evidence of a good level of maintenance. Fresh plantings of trees and shrubs.

Ik was blij met: For those that love spotlessly clean toilet blocks you'll love this place 15-minute walk to the nearest pub the does a really nice Sunday roast

Ik was niet zo blij met: The post to enter the code to open the gate is too far away and you have to get out of the car the waterpoint nearest star pitch is also next to the chemical waste tank and people use this to clean out their toilet cassettes another tap is needed also the tank hasn't been buried so you have to lift your grey water tank three foot high to be able to empty it and the site could do with much better drainage please don't get me wrong we had a great time but a new size needs to know it's teething problems

Van de manager: Dear Colin, Thank you for your comments. For clarity: The gate post was deliberately set back to avoid collisions with wide vehicles (ie. caravans ) The chemical waste is for chemical waste NOT grey water. It is located above ground to enable me to move it easily if needed. The tap was put there by request (of previous guests) to facilitate the washing of vessels. There are more taps on site, which might involve a 100m walk. Regarding drainage, the weekend you visited was probably the wettest, compounded by months of unseasonal rain. The field is drained and other guests commented how quickly the water had gone away. The grass pitches are not open at this time of year for that very reason.

Ik was blij met: Friendly greeting upon arrival. Great location. Plenty of walks in the area. There is a gate at bottom of site to avoid walking on the road. Across a couple of fields to the canal. Walks to marina or Church Minshull. (muddy when wet though). Fantastic facilities.

Ik was niet zo blij met: 11am checkout on day of departure. Usual 12 noon would give that extra hour for relaxing breakfast.

Van de manager: Hello Yvonne, Thankyou for your kind comments. I am considering altering the checkout time!

Ik was blij met: Everything. This site is a real treat. A lot of money and thought has gone into creating this. Let's get serious: Clear, professional, well communicated instructions for your stay. Not far from M6 on good roads; easy wide site access; well signposted; hard access road to hardstanding pitches and grass pitches so no soft grass to sink in thank goodness. (of course the grass pitches are grass!); level pitches; close hookup; plenty of water tap points; spacious layout; modern well kept facilities; friendly owners.... I could go on but am already risking making this so popular that it will be full, all the time, so no room for me. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Ik was niet zo blij met: No pegs in facility doors.

Van de manager: Oh my goodness Peter! Thank you for your glowing review. I will get some pegs on the toilet doors.

Ik was blij met: Great site, very new, but well thought out. Spacious pitches, quiet countryside with walks from the site. Looking forward to going back in the future to see how the site develops. Lovely amenity block. Well done Lucy and all the best for the future of your business

Ik was niet zo blij met: Nothing to dislike.
