What visitors say
Booked this campsite last minute for 2 nights, even though it didn't have supervised staff clear instructions were emailed to me prior to arrival. It was lovely and quiet, clean toilets, hot showers and a place to plug in my hairdryer. I would have liked to see clearly labelled recycle bins because I like to do my bit. The pitch was grass the only issue was a few mole hills but that's nature. Lovely to be on a campsite surrounded by open fields.

What a wonderful campsite. We found it friendly, clean and in such a great location. Warm welcome. Clean toilets. Never had to queue at toilets or showers. Well planned out and managed site. It had the best play facilities a campsite could have....an open field with no playground. This meant the kids all made friends and played together (including a five family water fight on the hottest day) Wonderful location, we managed 5 castles, 2 cities, kids' destinations, and a wonderful village down the road. Wonderful dark skies meant we saw aurora and two shooting stars on loo runs at night. Only down side was the wind changing its mind which direction to blow and how strong. We will return and highly recommend.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming on our arrival. This is a well maintained site, with clean toilet/shower blocks, a washing up area for pots, and the pitches are spacious with a big open area in the middle of the site for kids to play. There local village (Tattenhall) and the Ice Cream farm are only a few minutes drive away, alternatively there are off-road walking routes to both directly from the camp. Overall a great stay and would definitely visit again in the future.

Really liked the site and probably would go again, couple of stars knocked off on this occasion as did feel more cleaning and checking on facilities needed (as ran out of toilet roll) and as other reviews mention did find the limited reception hours a bit strange. There was building work on site (which I know could not be helped) but would have been nice to be advised about as was pretty loud. Great location for Ice cream farm which is definitely worth a visit and decent showers etc (just more checking needed)
