We visited this site, after reading the reviews, as a one night stop off on our way home from Wales. Absolutely lovely! small site, good and plentiful facilities, wooded location, lots of rabbits to keep the JR amused. Great walking close by, along the canal and over the aqueducts, or to Chirk Castle and back along the 'woodland walk'. Chirk is an attractive town. Very friendly site, highly recommended ! We always look for walking close by, as, once parked up we don't want to be driving until the next move, this site is ideal !
Very spacious site with good sized pitches in lovely wooded location just one mile outside Chirk, on the edge of Chirk castle estate. An ideal base for walking and cycling direct from site. Llangollen canal is ½ mile away with towpath walks/bike rides, and the Aquaduct. Valley bottom walks along River Ceirog offering spectacular views of both Aquaduct and the parallel railway Viaduct. Chirk Castle is 1 ½ miles from the site. Chirk has local shops, butchers, bakers and grocers shop plus Spar, and Co-op at outskirts of Chirk.
The site facilities are dated for Caravan Club standards, the three wash up sinks located outside the toilet block under cover. Unusual for the Caravan Club, this is a child friendly site with play area and playing field to actually encourage sports and ball games.
Overall great site and location, friendly wardens, but dated facilities.
Took my new caravan here to try everything out, only hardstanding open due to early season. Excellent weekend, shower blocks lovely and clean and showers hot at any time of day, site really well kept and wardens most helpful at all times. There is a path around the site which takes you down to the canal and over the aquaduct, lovely pubs along the way to eat at or just have a drink. This is my third visit and I will be returning many more times I'm sure. Access really good off main road through Chirk and up the road to Chirk Castle into the site
Finally after two years of trying to get here, we finally made it and spent a lovely weekend at LMP club site. The site, situated right next to the Chirk Castle estate is what we’ve come to expect from a CC site.
The facilities are all the usual – heated toilet / shower block, dish wash, laundry, numerous chemical disposal points with fresh water, motorhome waste point, information room and children’s play area all of which are maintained to the expected high standards by the friendly wardens.
The site itself is split into three sort of camping areas; two wooded dells where the pitches are located in amongst the tress and the main camping area out in the open. We managed to baggsy a pitch in one of the dells – looking forward to going back again in the summer when all the trees are in leaf.
Although there is a dog walk on site, didn’t use it as the site is surrounded by woodlands so plenty of area to walk off site. The site information sheet does warn about noise form the local factories if the wind is in the wrong direction but that, or the sound of trains stopping at the local station never bothered us.
Chick Castle itself is a National Trust property. The grounds in general are open to the public with several permissive footpaths crossing the estate so plenty of walking available. The castle and gardens are also open to the public (check on opening times) subject to an entrance fee although it's free to members.
Chirk itself isn't very big and as we walked through late on a Saturday afternoon, most shops seemed to be closing so can’t comment on places to eat, etc. For a bit of excitement whilst you’re there, have a walk down to the canal and walk across the aqueduct or through the 450yd tunnel (don’t forget your torch). !
This is a lovely campsite set in woodland on the edge of Chirk. It has all the facilities you would expect from a CC site and the wardens are very welcoming and helpful.
There are lovely walks from here up to Chirk Castle which has lovely gardens to explore, Offahs Dyke runs close by, Llangollen is a very cheap (£2. 50 day rider) bus ride away and has a Llangollen History Trail to walk, there is the Pontcysyllte aqueduct and Chirk marina an easy walk along the canal from just by the railway station. Also just at the bottom of the campsite is the Chirk Tunnel which is worth doing but take a torch. All in all lots to do if you love walking and exploring the area.
The village itself has a couple of pubs although we did not use them and a Spar and a great vegetable shop. It also has a butchers shop which looks good but again we did not use this.
We were snowed in which was lovely until we came to leave for home! Even with snow tyres on the motorhome would not quite make the top of the small slope from the bottom section of the site but the warden was brilliant and came out to help us dig our way out. He certainly went beyond the call of duty. This site is a must for a revisit perhaps in spring when the bluebells are out.
Beautifully maintained site with attractive, wooded drive leading to it, right by Chirk Castle grounds. Wardens (& assistants) were informative and friendly and kept the site in very good order.
Toilet block had enough toilet/shower and washbasin cubicles to avoid queueing.
A fish and chip stall visited the site one evening a week and a free meal was raffled. Otherwise there are some good shops/restaurants within walking distance.
We had booked the site specifically to visit the Castle. This was a one and half mile walk but it was uphill so be warned! We also walked through the tunnel and would recommend a torch as it was pitch black even in the daytime.
What a fantastic little site. Some of the nicest CC wardens we've ever met. They had allocated us a hardstanding pitch due to the previous rain they had suffered and when we were levelling up came to apologise because the pitch wasn't flat. It certainly wasn't a problem for us. The site is separated into different area/sections, all pretty and close to all facilities.
One central toilet block, spotless all the time and never had to queue once. Covered washing-up section and plenty of water points, bins and recycling around the site. Dog walk on site but we didn't use it this time - used the leafy lane outside the site as it was closer to our pitch.
Chirk village is a 10/15 minute wander away and had a Spar, butchers, bakers, pub, hotel, Indian restaurant and other shops in the main street. The Hand Hotel does a CC special menu BUT not on a Sunday (the day we went there!). Chirk Tandoori does a Sunday all day help yourself buffet - highly recommended!
Chirk Castle (National Trust) and grounds are right next to this CC site. You can walk around the grounds for free, but access to the castle and gardens is chargeable. We did the 1. 5 mile walk up to the castle and back - well worth it.
Chirk aqueduct is well worth a visit too. Apparently you can walk through the tunnel to the aqueduct via the site but we chose to bike there (5/10 minutes at the most). It's a stunning place. We also biked along the tow path (in the other direction) to the Pontcysyllte aqueduct. Sadly (!) we couldn't cross it on our bikes/trailer. From there we biked to Llangollen (8 miles each way from the site) and had lunch sat outside the tea room on the Wharf. Another lovely thing to do.
As previously mentioned there is a chocolate factory nearby. There was a hum from it but to us it almost sounded like the roar of the sea, which we hear from home so it didn't bother us in the least. Strangely some mornings we woke up to the smell of hot chocolate and wild garlic which I found quite pleasant.
This was our first visit to this wonderful site and it certainly won't be our last. We would highly recommend this site but I'd guess you'd need to book early, especially for weekends, bank holidays and school holidays.
Great Caravan club site at Chirk, on the Wales border. Mostly hard standings, good flat pitches with some grass pitches.
Good Big pitches, fitted car, caravan, awning easily, found the pitch was Very hard to get awning pegs in, even using rock pegs, they just couldn't get gripped in some places. Stones marked awning/ belongings in a grey mud?
2 toilet blocks, the largest has 4 showers, plenty of toilets and privacy cubicles. Its clean, but a little more attention to detailed cleaning needed, some cobwebs there all week. Nice and warm, showers hot and never had to queue. Ladies- 1 hairdyer out in the main area of room. The other block, opposite it has 4 showers and 1 toilet, it isn't as modern and a bit cool.
Good washing up area, undercover. Seemed to be a washing machine etc and disabled toilet/shower room.
Small children's play area inc a castle fort.
Wardens seemed to keep the grass cut- a lot! a bit strict in the office I found, which put me off going back in for anything. Good information hut, but I found it lacking in local attractions and information on walks from site.
Dog walk is a wooded area, bit muddy, ok for quick exercise, but head along the little lane at the site entrance for best walks we had a dog with us. Also playing field at bottom of site to play with a ball.
Walk from site to the aquaduct, can walk across it or through the tunnel in the other direction. Easy walk into Chirk town which has some nice shops. Spar, chemist, greengrocers, a lovely little home shop opp church, and hardware/all sorts shop opp Hand hotel, who has some funny caravan magnets/signs!
Visited -Rhaeadr waterfall.
Lake Vyrnwy is fantastic, sculpture park dog friendly and a RSPB hide in carpark is even dog friendly. Parking is FREE too, toilets and cafe handy.
Mawr Country park, lovely walk and great to access farm animals, all dog friendly and FREE, a well kept park.
Llangollen, lovely canals, lots of tourist shops. We drove up to Chirk castle twice on our first visit we walked for 2hrs around the grounds, a bit hairy walking through the field with a bull in! The second time, we visited as there was a fete on which was small but very nice, great cakes from the shop. Sadly the garden and castle are not dog friendly, would have been nice to look around the garden. A NT property, but free parking for all.
Hum from factory- noticeable on some days when the wind blew from that direction, especially in the morning when it was quiet, a bit annoying to light sleepers, but then it disappeared on other days! Not hugely intrusive and it wouldn't put me off going back.
A good site for a stop over, I think a few motor homes and caravans used it for this as it has easy access from main roads.
The area is lovely and the site is well positioned.
Having spent 4 nights here over Easter on our way back from Snowdon, I really want to go back for longer.
A lovely clean, well kept site in a lovely location. The assistant wardens are probably the friendliest in the network, or at least they we're the most friendly we have ever come across in 9 years of membership.
The pitches are a nice size and my 4 year old loved the play area shaped like a castle.
There is a good dog walk or if you prefer you can walk off the site into the village, or down a little path through the woods towards the canal and walk over Chirk Aquaduct (there is also a pub not to far off the towpath if you get thirsty on the way back!).
Chirk village has a number of shops, including an excellent butchers, there is a spar shop, a hardware shop, bakery and a few others. Oswestry isn't far if you need a larger supermarket (Sainsburys).
There is also a train station which I presume goes to wrexham which is a short walk from the site. You can walk off the site to Chirk Castle which is a national trust property, this is well worth a visit. It has a small play area for kids and ride on tractors as well as the grounds of the castle itself and all the rooms inside the castle. You can easily spend a day out here, There is also a large field with goal posts in to keep older children entertained. For us, with Children aged 18 months, 4 and 15 and with our 2 dogs this site ticked all of the boxes we could wish for. Just wish we could have stayed for longer.
I suppose the only downside is the factory's that you have to pass on the way to the site and you can also see them off the dog walk, but you cannot do a lot about that.
A lovely, well maintained caravan club site, in an ideal position to visit Chirk castle, you can walk up the castle exit road from the site entrance, (if you are fit) or take the car, there is a very steep hill from the car park to the castle, with a mini bus for those who find it difficult.
While you are at the site visit Erddig house near Wrexham its great.
You could also try Sunday lunch on a narrow boat as it makes its way over the Pontcysyllite aquaduct, we enjoyed this even in the wet weather.
If you pitch in either of the dells you must be prepared for some factory noise, which seems louder at night, it did not stop us sleeping.
The pitches sizes vary so make sure you choose one big enough for your unit.
Just come back from 3 nights stay at this site, arrived at 12. 30 on the sunday it was quite busy with arrivals but didn't have to wait too long I chose a pitch close to the dog walk(ideal for me and my four legged friend) This site is on the doorstep for Chirk Castle(National Trust) Train station about 10 mins walk and chirk about 15mins. Decided to take the train to Wrexham with dog in tow, however if I had been more knowledgable I could have gone to Llandudno. There is a dog friendly pub at the 'Hands Hotel' (not restaurant area) Having got in with the 'locals' I was told they have a large car boot in the old airfield so if you are a car booting fan this sounds a good place to go.
There are many walks from the site, I particular liked the walk down to the aqeduct, and walked further along the canal, there was a pub called The Bridge but I didn't pay a visit.
I really enjoyed this site the staff were very helpful and the site is well maintained. I noted previous comments regarding the 'humming' noise, I was aware but to be honest its not that bad it didn't bother me at all, however it wasn't windy when I stayed so whether the sound is more apparent I don't know.
Just returned from a weekend at this site. It is in a lovely setting next to the castle.
There are lots of walks straight from the site and Chirk is within easy walking distance about 15 mins away. We walked along the river bit muddy to get onto but great listening to the rushing water - sheep in the field so watch the dog if you have one!
We also walked along the canal to the bridge inn - good beer, good wine and friendly locals. They were advertising sunday lunch for £5 but had to come home so didn't try it.
The site is caravan club so facilities to usual cc standard. The dog walk is adequate for the usual early morning and late evening constitutional but with so many walks around your spoilt for choice anyway.
There is a factory nearby and we heard a constant droning noise around 10pm which went on all night so may need to put sound up on tv to drown it out!
Other than that a fab site in a fab location and only 50mins from home we'll be back asap.
Just back from our annual visit to this site (only 1 hour drive from home) and it still met all our expectations. Good spaced pitches, well kept grounds, clean toilet block etc - all the usual Caravan Club standards - can't be beaten.
Apart from booking in, no contact with wardens so can't comment on them. Fabulous walks from site, over the aqueduct or in the Castle grounds.
This time we went to the Poachers Pub (within walking distance along canal path or short drive on the Oswestry road) for Sunday lunch but think we'll venture further afield in future, only cheap but it shows. Perhaps better for an outside drink on a nice afternoon.
We also went into Wrexham on the train - station just down road from site, within walking distance - and had an afternoon shopping and looking about - bit different for us whilst away in caravan.
Stayed at this lovely site for a couple of nights on our way to the Gower Coast. It is a lovely site, staffed by very helpful and friendly people.
There's a good choice of pitches (if available) - some under pine trees, etc. and some on more open spaces. The whole site seemed sheltered and quiet. The facilities were excellent - clean and very well appointed, as you'd expect from a Caravan Club site.
There is a bit of a hum from the nearby factory, but it's not enough to fuss about!
There are indeed some lovely walks near the site and the 24 hours we spent exploring the area made us think that we will definitely return at some stage.
This was our first visit to this site and we were very pleasantly surprised. Pitches are well spaced out and facilities are very clean as expected from a CC site. Wardens were very friendly and helpful.
There were some lovely walks from the site- through the woods to the canal, along the aqueduct and through the 450m tunnel in the dark. Fun when one of you has the 3 dogs and one is pushing a wheelchair with no torch. There is a handrail! Another lovely walk is up to Chirk Castle - lovely views from the top but cafe is closed on a Monday and Tuesday.
Llangollen is a great place to visit and is only about 5 miles away. Good shops and places to eat. Horse drawn canal boat rides and walks along the canal all make for a busy afternoon.
Reading other reviews it is mentioned about noise from the MDF factory in the town. We didn't hear anything at all. Infact it was a very peaceful site and we will certainly be visiting again.
