 Booked this caravan site some months ago so that we could use it to visit Old Trafford for the Rugby League play off final. Stayed 3 nights, Thursday to Sunday. A really good site just outside Bury town centre on the edge of the country park.
Very welcoming lady on reception on our arrival and other members of staff we saw during our stay were friendly & helpful. The toilet block facilities were excellent & very clean at all times. The shower cubicles were a good size and I liked the step down into the shower area which meant the standing area where you dress was clean & dry. Pitches are large & almost everyone was on hard standing as the grass pitches were very wet.
The country park is a dog walkers paradise with paths criss-crossing the grassed areas. Also the river Irlam & canals which previously served the old mills made walking a pleasure.
We visited Bury town centre on 2 occasions and parking was very easy although cost £2 for 2 hours. The Rock & Millgate shopping centres were excellent according to my wife and even I visited the market and enjoyed it.
We visited the Brown Cow pub just outside the caravan park entrance and found it friendly with a good selection of beers and the food was typical pub grub and was of a reasonable standard for the price.
We had a good long weekend & will definitely return in the future.

We were very scared to return to Burrs after our last experience - nothing to do with the site just the caravan & the weather. We were worried! I have to say we had an absolutely fabulous time. No problems with caravan and the weather was great. The site access is cobbles and I would advise extreme caution go slow and it'll be fine! The site itself is lovely with the steam train going past regularly, although if your not fussy on the noise don't go on the weekend of the stream train event - woke us up at 7am on a Sunday & continued going up & down the track hooting for all its worth for an hour or more! Shower a great size better than most cc sites I've visited and up to cc standard for cleanliness as is the site. Surrounding countryside fabulous for long leisurely walks and the Brown Cow pun highly recommended. The river and the canal are within 5 mins walk. Went into Bury market to get provisions on Saturday morning, great is all I can say. All in all a great site will be going back soon. It is a little more expensive than most of cc sites not sure if I'd say value for money but as it is a lovely site in a lovely position you decide if you want to pay the extra.

A quite excellent site with a real queer entrance!
There are two entrance barriers operated by card. The card contact for the first barrier is at the left hand side of the car! I kid you not!
There is a bit of noise from the park but it's not a problem - just the sound of people enjoying themselves. More of a nuisance during the weekends of our stay was the noise of loud music from the nearby pub from mid afternoon but it finished early enough that it wasn't a bedtime problem.

A fantastic caravan club site on the edge of the Burrs Country Park at Bury. Friendly wardens keep the site and shower block immaculate. There are many walks straight from the site, we went for 10 days and didn't move our car once!
A 15 minute walk gets you to Bury town centre, with its super world famous market, excellent shopping centres (The Rock and Millgate) as well as art gallery and museums. We went on the East Lancashire Railway, the station is in central Bury, and the steam trains travel alongside the caravan site. Great for enthusiasts! You can buy an all-line ticket so you can get on and off the train at different stations along the route as many times as you like. If you're caravan club members remember to take a Great Days Out voucher and your membership card, so you get 2 tickets for the price of 1.
We also made use of our bus passes to explore the surrounding area, the bus stop being just a 5 minute walk from the site. A bus or tram from Bury soon gets you to Manchester with all its attractions. We would recommend the Industry and Science Museum, and the People's History museum, both free entry and perfect for a rainy day! Give yourself plenty of time to get round them as the Science museum in particular is huge.
There is no playground on the actual site but a very good one on Woodhill Road, again only 5 minutes from the site. The Brown Cow pub situated next to the site seemed to be popular but we didn't go there so cannot comment on that. We can however, recommend the fish and chip shop on Brandlesholme Road! This was our second visit to this site and will not be our last.

Visited this site over the new year. We arrived on a wet and windy Sunday. Beware the cobbled entrance quite a bumpy ride that shook us to the bones - best take it as slow as possible. Pitches are large and we had hard standing as the grass was very boggy due to the weather. The electrics kept blowing and the warden was really helpful, they had only arrived a day or two before but were in full swing already.
The site itself is in a lovely location close to the town centre and the steam train passing by makes it really picturesque. Facilities are great warm and spacious showers await after a cold and wet walk - lovely. The pub at the entrance of the pub sells good food and real ale but prices are higher than usual - a captive market.
All in all despite the weather, the electrics and a mountain of issues with our van we had a lovely time & will be visiting again when it gets warmer!

Love this site and everything about it and the surrounding areas. Will visit again as I cannot give any negatives about it. For me, being able to sit and watch steam trains and the odd plane fly over in the sunshine and watch the world go by was heaven. Dog walks a plenty. Very basic shop in reception but Bury is a short walk away for stocking up. Loads to do in the area or you can do nothing and just relax. Typical Caravan Club standards, no issues there.

Have just returned from a weekend break at Burrs Country Park Caravan Club Site. It was our first time on a Club site. You can't fault this site, the pitches are a good size, toilets and showers immaculate and the East Lancashire Steam Railway runs right next to the site which is lovely. The wardens were very friendly and helpful.
We had a nice weekend. However my only personal negative is that I did find the way the pitches are laid out a bit 'car park' ish. Not much character, clean and tidy but without personality ! This is only my personal opinion and I do still highly recommend the site if you are visiting the Bury area.
Only a 20 minute walk into Bury where you can catch the tram straight into Manchester. Tried the Brown Cow Pub at the entrance to the site for lunch and it was very nice and close and handy for the site.

This is a lovely site within reach of Bury town centre. The site was excellently kept & the wardens obviously spend a lot of time on keeping it looking great.
The toilet block is very modern & was clean at all times. The showers are some of the best I have seen on any site.
Burrs country park is on the doorstep with some lovely walks & plenty of activities.
The site is an easy walk from the Tram station which goes straight into Manchester.

Beautiful site. Lovely staff. Clean / modern toilet/shower block. Ideal for a quiet break with plenty of walking straight from your van. Overlooking Burrs Country Park.
A steam train passes the site a few times a day which is such a treat. People from the train are waving - take your camera. We loved it so much we booked again and stayed for the weekend two weeks later.
The pub just off site is OK, lots of locals in my opinion in the room to the left as you go in (avoid), but the other room is great. We sat outside though in the garden. Can't comment on food, but menu looks great and there were lots of people eating.
Bury town centre was fantastic. Shopping centre great most of which is in a very large precinct. Market is the best I've ever been to. All I can say is enjoy and I'm sure you will!

First trip out in our new to us caravan. Burrs is a fabulous site that is very clean and tidy. The site is ideal for dog lovers and adventure people alike, the country park is a really good facility. The Brown Cow pub is just 2 mins walk with real ale, reasonable food and loads of outside tables with an 'assault course' for kids
The town centre of Bury is only 5 min drive away, with all the usual shops, supermarkets etc.
The wardens were very helpful and receptive.
I would recommend this site to all caravanners.

Spent our second visit at this site, and we absolutely love it!
The location is fantastic for near bury / ramsbottom / manchester, and the country park is great for the dog.
The credit to the site for us, is when you pitch up and in your front window is the steam railway, just an amazing sight to see.
The site is very clean, no matter what time of day we went the toilet block was immaculate, and the site is VERY secure.
We fell in love with this site last year, and have tried to book in various times but the site was full, that says it all itself!
We totally recommend this site, we have stayed at a few caravan club sites, but this is our favourite!
Such a shame they don't do seasonal pitches!

Just returned from a weeks stay at Burrs. Have stayed here numerous times in the past and love the site, despite it being only 30mins from home.
The site is all you would expect of a club site. The toilet and shower facilities are clean modern and bright. There were always free cubicles despite the site being busy.
There is no play area for children on site but there's the country park for them to play in, also the steam trains run right by the site which is nice to see.
The staff were very friendly and there is a pub just outside the barrier, the Brown Cow. I have eaten here a few times but the food is pretty average.
There are plenty of walks for dogs and Bury is only a 25min walk away with its shops and famous market.
I already have several forward bookings for this site so am definitely going to return

Just returned from this site and have to say it wont be our last visit.
This is a typical caravan club site with the large pitches and excellent wash facilities. The grounds were very well maintained. The site is in a great location close to bury town centre, great for any walkers and people with dogs.
There are some lovely walks just outside the site and even more handy there is a pub right outside gates (Brown cow).
I suppose the only downside to the site is there is no play area for kids so we found all the kids would play on the roads, this was a bit of a a pain as it was right outside our caravan.
The staff seamed friendly even though we were a bit early, but we did leave very early as well. Will go to this site again and would highly recommend

Our first trip to Burrs Country Park and the start of our caravanning season. This is a lovely site with a good welcome from the Caravan Club wardens.
The site has good size pitches but with it being reasonably new the trees and bushes are still developing making it look a bit bare, a very well maintained site. It has a lovely relaxing feel.
There is one toilet block with all facilities, always clean and tidy and never having to queue.
We over looked the very large dog walking area, nice to see the training and walking of the dogs in the morning, there were paths (no need to get muddy), benches and plenty of trees, the dogs were running off their leads.
Plenty of walking in the Country Park or along the river. The old mill ruins is on site nice for a look around. There is an old canal to see with a bridge going across to walk in a wooded area.
Two pubs close by, one by the gates the Brown Cow and another 10 mins walk away this one was serving very good meals, ask for the mixed grill and you will need four of you to eat it!
Bury market is a famous large market, many people come on bus trips to see it.
No play ground for children. Enough to do around the country Park.
We will be back

Family of 4 in a touring caravan stayed in March as wanted to try out the caravan for the 1st time. Excellent site with good facilities. Near Bury market and Bury town centre but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet.
As this is in a country park lots of lovely walks and dog friendly. There is a lovely pub the brown cow just a wuick 2 mins walk from the main site and can highly recommend the food,
Will definitely be visiting again.
