 We like the area and this time tried this site. The grounds are well maintained with further improvements in the waste and recycle area underway at the present time.

The amenities were very clean, the showers are push button but gave adequate time.

The site has an electric pizza oven and because there were over 20 ordered they were able provide this facility and the pizzas were really good, a limited choice but the extra toppings enhanced the pizzas.

The hardstanding pitches aren't huge, but more than adequate. The roads were tarmac and there was site lighting.

The grass next to the pitch was very muddy mainly through wormcasts and it was easy to walk mud in onto the caravan carpets.

The acid test for any site is would you go there again and my response is "Probably".

Reviewer: DylanOES 44 reviews from this member

 Overall a good site, especially due to the fantastic friendliness and helpfulness of the site staff.

There was never a moment that you could not find somebody, and mostly they were doing cleaning and maintenance, so all facilities were kept in tip-top condition. However. That leads to an explanation for the low facilities score - they are woefully small for the site capacity and over the busy bank holiday weekend, queueing was inevitable. They really do need extending.

As for location, this is reasonable with Winsford 10-mins and Chester 30-mins away. The busy A54 does run alongside, but buildings, an earth bank and a large hedge do mitigate traffic noise, and it isn't intrusive.

There is an extensive dog-walking area along two sides of the site, safe for off-lead for well controlled dogs.

The reception shop is small but has all the basics needed, along with 'farm shop' sausages, bacon, eggs, etc.

There is a 'crepe wagon' open on Sat / Sun mornings and on Friday (and Wednesday if enough demand) evenings they fire up a proper wood-fired pizza oven. The pizzas are truly excellent - tasty, thin crusts and heaps of toppings - definitely not to be missed.

 What a little gem of a site this is, made very welcome on arrival by a lovely lady who showed us to our pitch and told us where all the facilities were.

Site is kept immaculate and facilities are spotless.

There is a small shop on site that sells all the basics including bacon and sausage from local butcher.

On Friday night they do pizzas from their on site oven and Saturday and Sunday morning they do crepes.

Pub 10 min walk away farm shop and café further up road.

Can recommend this site.

Date of Visit: February 2023 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Nights stayed: 3 Travelling as:  With friends
Reviewer: Ina 38 reviews from this member

 Last minute decision to go here for 3 nights. At the time there was an offer on: 3 nights for the price of 2 from Sunday-Thursday (we went Tuesday-Friday).

The website states you have to ring up for that offer, which I did anyway, as we only booked the night before going.

Owner very pleasant to deal with; sorted out the 2 pitches we wanted and went next day. Arrival time is a bit late at 1. 30pm; you can ask for earlier, for an extra cost of £5. On arrival the office was closed, but there is a bell and the owner came out straight away to book us in.

Told us where everything was etc and as our friends were already there, our pitch next to them was easy to spot, so off we went to pitch up. I can't comment on child friendliness, as we were 2 retired couples without children.

Pros: very clean and warm toiletblock, immaculately clean at all times. Showers adjustable, and very hot with a good flow. They are push button, but run for quite a while, so you don't have to keep pressing the button every 10 seconds, like on some other sites.

There is a laundry room and a washing-up room, with 2 sinks and plenty of hot water. Recycling bins opposite. Site neat and well kept. During our visit someone was clearing any weeds from pitches every day.

There weren't many weeds, but also the edges of the pitches were tidied, where some of the grass had strayed onto pitches. Can walk from site to several footpaths, or along minor roads, amongst others to the Whitegate Way, or Little Budworth and Oulton park.

We didn't use the car, but Delamere Forest is quite close, , would imagine about 15 minutes by car. Nearest pub, Shrewsbury Arms, is within walking distance, about 15 minutes. We used it 1 night to have a meal, and can recommend it. Portions are huge, and very reasonably priced.

Cons: site is off the A54, which is a busy road. We were away from the road, but could hear the traffic although it didn't bother us and didn't keep us awake. It eases off at night.

If you were on one of the pitches near the road though, I'd imagine it could be very noisy, especially in summer if you were sitting outside.

Gravel pitches were quite narrow; there were a number of caravans (which were obviously sited long-term) with awnings, which left no room for the car on the pitch. One near us was occupied, and cars were parked on the adjacent empty pitch.

If the site is full, presumably cars should be parked on the grass between pitches. We didn't have an awning up, our car just fitted on the pitch next to the caravan. There are some service pitches, which appeared wider than the standard gravel pitches.

Although the pub nearby is within walking distance, the footpath is narrow and only wide enough to walk single file. If you go at night, take a torch, there are no lights at all.

Nights stayed: 3 Travelling as:  Group
Reviewer: RebeccaH 2 reviews from this member

 We stayed here over the Easter Weekend as part of a family group. The owners made sure we were all together.

The pitches are generously sized (we have a huge tent and had plenty of space).

We had pizzas from the pizza oven and crepes the following morning which were great.

The facilities were always clean and tidy and despite the site being pretty much full, we never had to queue, however, I did find that when I got a later shower the water wasn't warm.

The smaller children enjoyed the play park and the dogs enjoyed the dog walking area.

The site is a short drive to Delamere Forest and you can enjoy open water swimming at Wild Shore Delamere again a quick car journey away and a couple of welcoming country pubs within walking distance.

We would definitely recommend and would return in the future.

 Friendly staff and clean and tidy park. Our spot. 26 was very quiet and just what we needed before and after a family funeral.

The dog walk is excellent and not just for dogs.

There are other services on offer and no reason to think they would be anything other than excellent.

 Just spent the bank holiday at Elm Cottage Touring Park and found the site to be one of the best we have stayed at,

Very clean and well presented, plus considering it must have been almost full to capacity it was very quiet.

We will definitely book again

 Site was clean and tidy with good facilities.

Friday night pizza from the stone baked oven on site was very good and good value for money.

If you go to the Shrewsbury Arms 5 minutes walk make sure you book a table.

 Excellent well maintained site with good facilities, the wardens are friendly and very helpful,

The Shrewsbury Arms is a short walk away, beyond that the Hollies Farm Shop and Cafe and the Tarporley Garden Centre (excellent cafe in the garden centre) are within walking distance.

There is a pavement, but it is narrow and the A54 is very busy. There is some road noise, but we did not find it intrusive and the wardens are quite strict about noise late at night, so we had a relaxing couple of days.

We can't wait to go back again.

 This has to be the most impressive site we have ever been to

The staff were fantastic friendly and helpful

It is a beautifully well maintained site, spotless toilets and showers, a small well stocked shop and a pizza van but only on a Friday night, should be every night. also a snack van chip van or some such thing would do well.

Overall an excellent site we will be back.

Reviewer: Malcbev 15 reviews from this member

 We love this site so clean and tidy and somewhere lovely to relax.

It was pretty full on arrival but there was no queuing for the showers or any of the facilities.

Returning home we actually said it felt 'normal' even though the pandemic is still ongoing.

My only qualm would be we were parked under a tree which made a mess of the caravan roof so had to wash it!

Reviewer: Danielle Goodwin 1 review from this member

 The campsite was absolutely lovely, really clean and great facilities, even though it was really busy.

Shop was good and staff were great and I loved the information/map that we were given at the start.

The only constructive feedback was that the pitch sizes were quite small, possibly the smallest we have stayed on. You couldn't get a bigger tent on that we have which is 7m long and even then, there wasn't enough space between tents for safety reasons.
