We went to this site and found it to be great. The facilities were very clean and showers warm and free. It was reasonably priced at £10 per night per tent. The owners were excellent, very helpful and did not come around checking up on you like many other sites. All in all we had a good time and would definitely visit this site again.

My wife and I stayed for two single nights, as a stopover point on our way to and from North Wales. The site is ideally suited for that, but it is also a good site for a longer stay, as there is plenty to do locally. As we had our dog with us, we found the dog walk very useful - it is long enough to allow a dog to stretch its legs, and wide enough to keep dogs apart if necessary.
The toilet and shower block was a little behind the times, but was kept in spotless condition, and had all that was needed. That is not a complaint, by the way! The main caravan site is quite small, catering for around 20 units, but there was plenty of room for all.
Considering all the rain we had in June, the site drained very well, allowing a car to pull a caravan off the grass without any problems. The owners (the two Chrises) were very helpful, even to the extent of lending us an extra power lead, as the hookup was too far for ours to reach. As has been said before, the small shop has enough to get by on, and the ability to order a daily newspaper was very useful. The site has all the facilities necessary for comfort.
I would recommend this site to anyone going to mid-Cheshire; it is inexpensive, and very good value for money. The Shrewsbury Arms, a quarter-mile along the Chester road, serves very good food, with good service to go with it. We found that a boon, as I do not think it gives my wife a holiday if she has to cook.

Stayed at this site for the early may BH. What a peaceful site. Spacious pitches. Toilets and showers clean. No playground but a great camping field with loads of room for kids to run. Good dog walk. Nice little owl sanctuary on site that you can look round. Newspapers can be ordered daily. Not over crowded. Reasonable rates. Close enough to visit Chester, Zoo and Jodrell Bank both worth a visit. Near to Winsford shopping area. Pub about 200 metres away. Couldn't fault it. Definitely will be revisiting.

Just spent a great weekend on this site. First time out in our trailer tent, Chris was very helpful with set up and even lent us a longer lead for hook up. Lots of hanging baskets and planters, grass all neatly trimmed, toilets and showers very clean, site is very attractive, even has it's own Owl sanctuary. Shop is small but has all the basic requirements, daily papers by pre-ordering. Cannot fault this site at all, will definitely return!

Very clean site, very organised, and owner friendly and sociable.
A part of their garden that you are allowed to enter contains aviaries of the most beautiful owls, that pose on perches just behind the wire, for you to photograph them! There is a decent view of fields and woods to one side of the site. It was very windy on my first day there, but I pitched my tent near the hedge on the western side of the site, where I was sheltered. The pub is just 5 minutes walk along the road outside (I took a short cut over a 5-bar gate in the corner of the camp site) , not the greatest range of beers maybe, and the food is certainly not haute cuisine, but it is sufficient.
The site is ideally situated for visiting Crewe, Manchester, Bridgemere Garden World etc.
The site has two major downsides as far as I am concerned: there was constant traffic noise throughout the Friday night, building up again from 5:45 am on the Saturday morning, and I hardly slept a wink. It's a long straight stretch of road, and you hear the tyre noise of each vehicle for some time. Saturday night was much quieter, with no "rush hour" on Sunday morning.
Secondly, in spite of the £10 a night charge, the facilities are inadequate. The gents was cramped and contained no urinal, just 2 toilets, 2 handbasins and 1 shaver socket. There is one gents shower in the entrance to the block, and a unisex one. There was a rally with about 20 tents on the weekend I was there, something I had hoped to avoid, without them there would have been just 3 tents. On the Saturday morning, when I needed to get ready, I sneaked into the disabled washroom and used that. I would have liked to have "spent a penny" before I went out for the day, but every time I tried, everything was occupied, so I had to cross my legs.

We stayed here as part of a group in the Rally area. Everything was excellent, the hosts were very welcoming. If you are thinking of having a rally, the barn is excellent and great value.
The shop is also very reasonable.
All in all, one of the better sites I have stayed in. Toilets and showers are clean, everything is relaxed and they have some great owls!

Couple with dog. We stopped at Elm Cottage for a long weekend just because it wasn't too far away from Oulton Park (where we were going to watch the British Superbike Championship). We were pleasantly surprised to find that it was such a nice site and we really enjoyed our stay there. The owners were very helpful and pleasant and the site was peaceful and well maintained. The newspaper ordering service was great.
We were in the center area on elec hook up and had plenty of room for our caravan, car and windbreaks etc. The washing-up facilities were good and the showers were hot and free. Some of the facilities are a bit dated but they are perfectly serviceable so no problems there. The site was well laid out and I would have liked to be there when all the flower displays were in bloom. There is a huge tent/rally field adjacent to the main site area. The dog walking area is pretty good too as it borders the main rally field and is therefore a good walk round.
The pub down the road is a typical country pub with a nice beer garden where we sat out with the dog. It serves Stella which was a bonus but they didn't serve food until the time advertised on the board in the evening so I didn't get a night off from caravan cooking as planned. The walk along a narrow footpath to get to the pub is a bit hairy as the road is a fast one - so don't have too many Stella's!
I would definitely recommend the site to family and friends and wouldn't hesitate to stop there again.

We have stayed at this site a couple of times now. We think it is a very good with friendly and helpful owners (the two Chris's). We always stay on hard-standing as we tend to go later in year. Pitches have plenty of room for van and car. The area where we park is level. There is a small shop on site with basics and you can order you paper for the morning.
There is a pub which serves food down the road a little is ok but nothing to jump up and down about.
Facilities are very clean and the site is well cared for.
Would recommend this site highly.

Went with a large family group . 4 tents (20 people) for 3 nights , plenty of space for the kids to play football/cricket etc, reasonably short grass and nice clean toilet/shower block. Really enjoyed our stay here and will use the site again.

Quite often return to this site, it is quite local to us and so is good for long weekends etc. I love it. There is not much on the site except owls. But it is just a lovely site, it is so well looked after and the owner is very nice too. Very cheep but then it is basic. If you are in the area it is worth a stay. I don't quite know what it is that I like about it so much, but you just have a feel that everything around your is nice, the grass is kept green, there is flowers all year round etc. The only down side is it runs along an A road, but it is quite at night.

Just got back from our first visit to the site and really enjoyed our break. The site will suit those looking for a quite time and is not the 'noisy club house' type. There are only two toilets and one shower for each sex (Plus a unisex shower) which doubtless will lead to delays at peak periods but we didn't encounter any issues during our stay.
The site is spotlessly clean and maintained to a very high level and the staff were very helpful and friendly. It will be our pleasure to visit again and I would encourage anyone looking to stay in mid-Cheshire to do the same.

I only stayed for one night, but it was a very pleasant stay!
The site is well looked after, very clean and tidy. Staff were friendly and helpful.
I camped on the big field near the road, some vehicles were a little noisy but I didn't find it too intrusive and it certainly didn't keep me awake! It's a big field so there is an opportunity to pitch further from the road.
Showers and toilets were very clean. All you could want in a quiet campsite is here, I recommend it!

Well kept and clean site staff pleasant and helpful. Toilet block and washing facilities kept very clean. If had to have one moan it would be that the camping field is very close to the main road which is busy day and night and can be a little noisy so be careful when choosing where to pitch your tent, worth a weekend visit

I visited this site with my wife, daughter and grandson, The site was mainly level with some slightly sloping parts , the grass was kept well mown and the whole site was very clean and tidy. not anything to do on site but relax ( perfect ) the toilet and washing facilities were kept clean at all times but when the park is full maybe there would be a need to be patiant, we found loads to do in the surrounding area, a holiday we all enjoyed and intend to repeat this year.
