 Chose Elm Cottage from a search of reviews here on UKCS.
Four couples were in my group and the booking in process was simple and quickly done. Jackie & James arranged for us all to be together and even changed our initial location to allow the use of our 'community' gazebo.
It was quite windy when we arrived and being quite a raised site we had fun putting the tents up, however, we all mucked in and the job was soon done. The ground has a slight slope to it but don't let that put you off the pegs went in easily and the grass was very short. All the EHU worked without a hitch.
Toilet block was clean and well stocked with loo paper etc. Three showers and closets in the gents with free hot water via push button taps. We didn't use the barn or try the curry night as we used a local pub (Shrewsbury Arms) that is a five minute walk away. Excellent food here by the way. We did make use of the sites Pizza oven on our first evening and to be totally honest we were a bit underwhelmed by what was offered for the price. (Hence the three pub meal visits later on)
The site has perhaps the smallest shop I have ever seen, but they did seem to sell all the essentials plus lots of leaflets for days out
That said a great site in an excellent location for Chester races and Aulton park. Hope to visit again.

Friendly family run campsite. Great for children, space to relax. Fantastic pub a walk away and nearby Delamere, Chester and loads of places to visit! Our 9 and 12 year old can't wait to go back next year.

Chose this site from the web, needed to be handy for friends in Manchester and be on the road back to the Holyhead Ferry. We were on a 'Grand Tour' of friends and relatives over 3 weeks staying at 8 different sites. Elm Cottage was by far the best site for facilities we enjoy, having two golden retrievers we found the on site extensive dog walk fantastic. The touring site is separate from the seasonal pitches with super pitches available. The site was superbly maintained and very clean. Good wifi albeit expensive at £5 per day. Owners have had the site for 3 years and their hard work can be seen everywhere, they inherited an aviary of owls (mostly eagle owls) visitors are welcome to view them. Close to Oulton Park motor circuit. Delighted we found it and will be sure to return.

We visited during the May Bank Holiday and our party consisted of 3 touring caravans and one tent with elec hook-up, and we were able to all be pitched together.
Jackie, James and all the staff were very friendly, relaxed and keen to ensure that our visit was an enjoyable one, which it most certainly was. From the warm reception, the delicious handmade pizza cooked to order on-site as well as an equally tasty bacon butty the next morning, and the Saturday evening entertainment with thai curry, I couldn't fault the unexpected extras this site had to offer.
The facilities were basic and clean and although there were only 3 showers available (3 women, 3 gents) for the site, I didn't experience any queues despite the site being full.
During our visit, there was a Superbike event at Oulton Park. The bikes were audible but not unpleasant.
Our party will definitely be returning to this lovely site.
P. S. Check out the Owls!

Nice site but unfortunately the pitch we had chosen had a huge tree directly above it (pitch21), the weather that weekend was awful with high winds and heavy rain and the looming tree made for a nervous night. The bathroom was lovely and clean and tidy but I hated the fact that the showers were cubicles and the neighbouring water flowed into yours. The owners where away when we arrived but their parents were there to welcome us and they were lovely. Would not hesitate to visit here again.

Convenient site for visiting Oulton Park. Not far from Winsford. Shower block ok. Site seems geared up for rallies. Staff friendly. Not far to Shrewsbury Arms a traditional local pub for meals Dog walk on site. However pitches are bumpy in places some are ok. However A54 is very busy and the road is noisy. Quieter during the night. We enjoyed our stay but thought the pitch prices were quite steep compared to other sites.

Just back from a 1-nighter at Elm Cottage. Lovely clean site off main A54 to Chester. Not disturbed by traffic, even though it is a busy road. Good dog walk along 2 sides of the site. The owner provided a map to get to the Egerton Arms using mainly footpaths and bridleways (30 mins approx). Still had to use the narrow pavement of the A54 for 5 minutes, which was pretty hair-raising. Pub well worth it. (Child and dog friendly. Fantastic Sunday lunch - not the cheapest, but definitely one of the best. ) The camping/rally field was closed for the winter and just the marked out serviced pitches were in use. Facilities warm and clean, with free showers and hairdryer. Good weekend, all in all. (Called at Middlewich - Kings Lock - for wonderful fish and chips en route - shame about roadworks on M6 which made the journey a little longer than expected)

This was our first visit under new family ownership and we received a very warm welcome on our arrival. The site was immaculately kept and the shower/toilet block was spotlessly clean. We were also please to see the Owl Collection was still there being looked after by the new owners.
A newly finished traditional wood burning pizza oven offering freshly baked home made pizzas was fired up in the early evening and proved very popular.
There is pub grub available within half a mile approx. And a further selection of pub restaurants within a 5 min. Drive.
The new team are all very friendly and keen to help visitors.
This site is a must for anyone visiting the area to explore the local attractions. We will be staying again without fail.

A very, clean touring site as others have commented previously so will only add a few things not mentioned. Besides the local pub down the road Shrewsbury Arms which does food and a couple of Robinsons real ales, the Egerton Arms, Little Budworth is worth seeking out, we walked there in about 20 mins however there is no pavement along the lane so care has to be taken, this GBG listed pub is quite quirky, has several real ales and has a nice menu. There was only about a 10 min wait for food here as opposed to an hour wait at the Shrewsbury Arms. For those with good navigational skills the Egerton can be reached via bridleway/public footpaths from the site. Paid £27/night for an all weather pitch which I thought was a bit high but I noticed they do a mid-week offer there. Didn't here any road noise.

Just spent a great weekend at this little gem of a site, not that it's that little! We booked a fully serviced pitch, which was fantastic. There was a hook-up, water, waste water, a picnic bench and a dustbin. The showers and toilets are spotless. Superb dog exercise area around edge of site, which is secure and safe from the road. Very friendly owners. Just up the road is the Shrewsbury Arms, where we went for drinks. Great little pub which does food. We will definitely be back soon, and really recommend this lovely site.

Just returned from a great few days at Elm Cottage one of the nicest sites I've ever stayed at in 50 years of camping caravans and now motor home the amenities are great clean hot showers hair dryer plus extra hair care if required block is heated so no chilly changing. The grounds are immaculate. Motor home service point very good electric hook up fully serviced pitches if required but plenty of water points and emptying points a little shop for the basics. It is run but a lovely couple friendly and so helpful. With plenty to do in the surrounding area most highly recommended

Well I am in 2 minds to leave a review as when I book again I am sure there will be no space!
We stayed here for 10 days from the 1st June, we were on pitch 20. We took in the touring cars at Oulton Park, Llandudno, Blackpool, Liverpool, Chester, Cheshire Oaks, and much more, such a great base for visitng the area.
The facilities were immaculate every time we used them, I do wonder if there are enough showers if expansion continues, (although we did not have to queue). The washing up area was always clean and I used the washing machine and this was very reasonably priced.
Some people mentioned the road noise, (which is not bad, (we have stayed at noisier) but this is inevetable if you want a site that has good travel links to the area, the road never bothered us. There is a pub just down the road but we didn't manage to get there, we did use the Jade Buddah Chinese which is about 10 minuites drive and it will NOT dissapoint!
As it was busy due to the touring cars Elm Cottage even have a breakfast van at peak times! Brilliant
Then a chippy van arrived on the Saturday evening and all of the orders were cooked fresh.
We would not hesitate to return.
Considering Jackie & James have only been the owners since August, I would like to thank them for being helpful and keeping such a lovely site.
