Newnes Touring Caravan Park

Gostou Beautiful, peaceful site. The owner communicated with us really well with a phonecall and came to greet us. Bathroom facilities are being updated soon so the owner explained we were free to use more modern ones in other fields but they were lovely and clean so no issues there.

Não gostou Please review your dog policy as it states you don't allow Rottweilers (I know this can be insurance rather than yourselves). Apologies that we never read this before booking and we brought our 11 week old Rottweiler puppy and I'm assuming it wasn't an issue as he isn't yet being walked about yet or mixing with other people and dogs. But unfortunately we won't be able to visit again due to this.

Gostou A rural site with 3 fields,one for tourers,one for seasonal and one split between the two,this last one with a slope boarders the A495 but the noise is generally quite muted,levelish hard standings with EHU and water,newish toilet block with 4 shower rooms,a grey waste emptying point, a dog wash but no chemical toilet point which is down the lower part of the field,no wifi but there was a reasonable phone (EE and vodafone)+ tv signal,I liked the fact you only pay a deposit then the remainder on arrival through bank transfer,owner seemed friendly and we enjoyed our visit.

Gostou A very friendly, well-maintained adults-only site with good facilities.
Pitches are generally level, offering lovely countryside views.
It's a 20 min walk along road or a 40min walk along canal to the pretty Ellesmere town centre.
Good selection of pubs offering good food choices and local beers.
Walks all around in the area and easily accessible from the site.
I would consider this site great value for money and ideal for a peaceful and relaxing break.

Não gostou A little tlc required in places but nothing that deterred from our stay.

Gostou We’re fairly local to the site and are familiar with its location. However, we were pleasantly surprised with just how nice it is. The site is divided into 3 fields which makes it feel quite cosy and no doubt helps shelter it from the wind being in an elevated position. We were put up in the corner of the third field which gave us an excellent view of the surrounding countryside. We were placed adjacent to the recently constructed excellent shower and toilet block which was convenient and quite secluded. The hard standing was nice, level and easy to manoeuvre into, within easy reach of the hook up. We looked down over the fishpond and towards Ellesmere which is within easy walking distance with a gate from field 3 leading directly towards it. Apart from one recent housing estate, that was at quite a distance Ellesmere is nevertheless hardly visible and you do feel like you’re out in the countryside. Noise from the road wasn’t intrusive. Robin the owner who came to say hello and collect the balance of his fee was friendly, approachable and informative.

Being quite late season and a lot of the site housing seasonal pitches for touring caravans, the vibe was very quiet and chilled. This is an ‘adult only’ site so should still be pretty mellow even in the school holidays.

In the evening we walked into Ellesmere and had a nice Indian meal at the Asian Spice restaurant and in the afternoon just chilled at the campsite. All in all a nice experience and it felt like a proper mini getaway even though we are very familiar with Ellesmere. A different perspective I guess!

Não gostou Very little. A shame about the new housing estate slightly spoiling the view but that’s progress I guess?!

Gostou Lovely adults only site. The toilets and shower blocks are immaculate and the owner very helpful. We arrived a bit early, but he still allowed us on the pitch. A short walking distance into Ellsmere, we ate in the red lion, the food was good and large potions. They had a pool table and darts in the back room and there is also an outside seating area. Would definitely recommend staying at this campsite.

Gostou Good well spaced flat pitches, clean toilet and shower blocks. Local vendors arrived at the pitch Friday evening selling honey and meats. Short walk into town. Water and electric points close to pitches.

Não gostou Dogs barking and off leads at times despite signs stating to keep them on leads but nothing to do with the site.

Gostou Nice site, well spaced out , owners really nice, can't comment on shower block as did not use, only 20min walk into town, easy route, sheep cows horses to look at ,honey lady came one day selling items, and the butcher van came too, pizza sometimes on site , kebab house and chinese take away dlv for small cost , overall a very pleasant stay and very reasonably on price

Não gostou Only thing we thought is the hedges/trees on sharp bend passed the farm coming in on the right could be trimmed to make it a little clearer for coming in and stop catching caravan, but could be due to time of year so not allowed to cut them, apart from that nothing else

Gostou Amazing site. We were in field 1, great views. Site is lovely, quiet, clean and plenty of room on pitches. Had a local butcher, lady with honey and there was supposed to be a pizza guy but sadly he couldn’t make it. Toilets and showers are clean and tidy, just what you need. 10/10 all round.
