 Just stayed at this campsite, lovely site, people and location, handy for Delamere Forest, Chester, Wirral etc etc.
Working farm with shower and toilet block, electric hookup, excellent value for money and lovely people,
will most definitely be going back again.
£17 for two in a camper van with a dog including electric hookup - excellent value.

Just visited this site, well maintained grass pitches with electric hook ups.
However the toilet/showers need bringing up to date, only one toilet, sink and shower for gents and ladies, no hand drying facilities,
owner did make us welcome and said he was thinking of upgrading the block, it's not altered since we stayed there 9 years ago.
Dishwashing facilities need updating too, a canopy would help as it's in the open, alright if it's fine weather but not if it's inclement.
Found it a little noisy on our first night, laughing and shouting till early hours from campers. Dogs running loose, woke up to find dog mess outside our van.
Would still visit again due to locality to Chester. It's a working farm so animal noise is expected.
Generally its a lovely little site.

What a lovely campsite, so very peaceful even though it's a working farm too. Lovely owners, very helpful.
Facilities are basic but clean and all working fine. 15 minutes walk away from the plough pub which serves lovely food and allows dog's.
And 30 minutes walk away from a park and ride for a bus to Chester, £2 per adult.
Will definitely be back.

Just come home from a lovely relaxing weekend from this campsites. Such good value for money, £17 for two adults, dog and electric for our campervan, site owner very friendly,
if you are looking for luxury then this is not the site for you but if you would like to stay on a working farm in the country side then try this site,
the toilet\shower block is very old and basic but the shower is free and works well.
You can walk into Christleton which is a beautiful old village with pub (half hour walk) or you can keep on walking along the canal tow path into Chester city centre, we will definitely be back.

Approach to the camping field behind the red brick farmhouse and buildings is across the old cobbled farmyard, so take it nice and slowly. Owner is pleasant and helpful, dog has a big bark but is a big softie.
When I went the field was very well mown, pretty much level, grass slightly longer under the double row of old fruit trees to one side, but still perfectly usable. Fire points are well lit at night and wash-up light is on a sensor. Ladies (I can't speak for the Gents!) is basic but clean, one of everything with a push-button shower.
A couple of coat hooks inside the outer door would have been handy but there is a large ledge for washbag, towel etc. The cattle were a novelty to watch; I didn't find the mooing a problem, didn't notice any before about 7am. It's a pleasant landscape to enjoy; seems popular with people bringing bikes to ride along the canal, which is accessible from nearby Christleton.
There is some road noise but not enough to put me off. I heard owls at night; would imagine there would be bats around too, but I didn't do any bat-watching this time. For a single camper, so often penalised at 'pay per pitch' sites, it's great value at £6 and I would go back.

We have stayed on many farm campsites - certified locations. Our expectations are that it is perfectly reasonable that there should be farm noise - eg cows and farm dogs roaming.
Also basic facilities are to be expected too.
What we don't expect is to be charged £21. 50 per night then asked for a further £3 each per night for our 2 x 16 year olds totalling £27. 50 per night (this price is the going rate for large sites with extensive facilities not a basic farmers field!)
Price - particularly the charge for our 'teenage' adults not made clear when booking.
For a basic site with frankly dirty toilet and shower facilities/ noisy cattle/ farm dogs emptying our awning bins this is just unacceptable.
We have stayed at sites for £12 - £15 per night that far exceed what was on offer here and only used the site due to its proximity to Car fest.
We did not use any of the facilities as they were dirty and I felt sorry for campers having to use them and the open air/ un covered dish washing facilities - all very basic.
Owners seem friendly but they need to review and improve their facilities or reduce their prices!
We will not be returning!

Fantastic site, lovely surroundings, quiet, yet only 15 minutes from Chester city centre.
Showers and toilets are basic, only one of each, but it is just a small site and they were always clean and fresh.
Ideal site for exploring west Cheshire, or just visiting the city of Chester, plenty of space for kids to play safe, even with cars and caravans moving around, great for dogs too, plenty of room in the field for exercising them.
It is a working farm with a lovely friendly dog, that the kids enjoyed petting, so did I !
The site owners are friendly and helpful. We will visit again.

Always enjoy my stay. The owner is a nice bloke who makes you feel welcome.
Comfortable farm site with reasonable toilets and washing up facilities, the terrain can be a bit hard but pick a good speck and your good to go.
He has plenty of cattle in near fields I think they are bred for beef not milk, also the site is quite good value for solo campers like my self.

This is a lovely small campsite which just what we like with a great view over the countryside.
The owners were very relaxed. The toilets and showers are basic by modern standards but kept very clean. HOWEVER, they had allowed their lovely and friendly dog to use the campsite as its toilet so we discovered that we were walking in the dog mess and had actually pitched our tent in it.
For this reason we would not be returning to the campsite.

Pretty much echoing that which has already been written.
It's a working farm (Beef farming) which results in early morning alarm calls (Mooing). Helpful, easy going owners. Great views of the rolling hills (park nose away from the farm building for the views).
10 years on, comments on toilet & wash up facilities still sum it up pretty accurately, although they are kept clean.
Parents please bear in mind that this is a working farm and that means there are many dangers. Whilst kids will love the animals and exploring, they need to be watched for their own safety.
