 A quiet adults only campsite. Showers and toilets very clean. Well positioned for cycling and walking.

Ellesmere half a mile away. Good butcher, baker and general stores for stocking up.

We would use this campsite again and would recommend it.

 Lovely site. Our first time here, but we'd love to come back. Great views, and the facilities were the best we've experienced in over 20 years and really clean.

Never had to wait for a shower or loo even though we were there just before bank holiday.

Good walking into Ellesmere direct from site, and staff very friendly.

 We really liked this site.

We were on pitch no 10 which was at the top of the first field (there are three fields). We had a fantastic view of the countryside. There were horses in the next field which we watched from our van. There were sheep and hens in another adjacent field. The toilet block was modern and clean. We did not go into the shower block.

We walked through the second field into the third field where the fishing pond is. It is not a big pond but there are lots of fish in there. There is a dog walk at the bottom of the field. Ellesmere is within walking distance.

All the other campers were friendly and the owners were nice. We had a great time here.

 Any negative comments I give would not stop me going back here as its great value and gave us nearly everything we needed. Plus points.

Adults only, good size pitch, 16amp, friendly owners, close to supermarket, own water tap, clean toilet block although we had the brand new one to use I am guessing they are having teething problems with it, as there was no heating in there and the showers were luke warm but water from hand basin was piping hot, so not sure whats going on there as other older block was warm and showers fine.

The site seems designed more for vans than tents as there is no freezer to keep ice blocks etc in. I did suggest getting one to Robin and he agreed it would be a good idea. On our field the toilet block had 2 male and 2 female toilet and shower rooms in.

It is a nice site and access is easy being close to the main road. Small pond that people did use to fish. Some lovely views too.

All in all a great place to stay.

Reviewer: Demijohn 1 review from this member

 Visited this site before the owners are excellent hosts and very amiable. The facilities are very good and always spotless.

The site itself is very well laid out and easy to find with good signage off the main road

The additional pitches which have been installed for this season are a credit to the owners with excellent levelling technique to take in the natural surroundings With good views all round

It nice to see camping pitches well catered for

Excellent value for the money. We will be returning

Reviewer: Muddtfunkstarr 29 reviews from this member

 Robin has created a lovely site just outside Ellesmere. 3 fields hillside location, and a clever use of terraces in the bottom field makes the most of the site giving generous pitch sizes.

Easy walk into Ellesmere 20 minutes, maybe another 5 to the mere.

Decent sized Tesco for supplies.

Gorgeous walks alongside the canal from the Ellesmere arm of the Langollen canal. Turn left for walks to Colemere and Right to head into peaceful Shropshire countryside.

Didn't use the on site facilities due to Covid, Looked beautiful, brand new shower/toilet block in the 3rd field. Nothing is too much trouble for Robin.

A really relaxing break.

Reviewer: RIMMER 207 reviews from this member

 We stayed in the top field, an all grass site but as the ground was very soft after all the rain the owner let us pitch on the gravel area next to the toilets.

An exceptionally quiet site with a reasonable £18/night fee and very clean, modern toilets. As others have said an easy walk into town via the two bottom fields.

In town a visit to the Vault micro bar is a must for beer enthusiasts which has a rather comfortable, quirky interior

And would also prove popular with the ladies.

 A lovely, quiet site and great value for money.

Only 10/15 minutes easy walk from Ellesmere town centre & 20/25 mins to the Meres. I can see that the showers/WCs on site may be busy/a need to queue at peak times however we had no trouble at all. Plenty of hot water and absolutely spotless.

The staff are second to none; welcoming, friendly and helpful. Ellesmere is not the party capital of North Shropshire but is an interesting little town with some decent cafes & pubs and and well worth a visit.

We cycle (in a very leisurely sort of way) and the Newnes site is very well located for several circular cycle routes on quiet country lanes (helpful guides available from the local tourist info).

We also found it fairly straightforward to reach Chirk and the Pontcysyllte aqueduct using the lanes and the canal towpath (the stretch from Chirk to the aqueduct is an absolute joy).

The Newnes site is in process of expansion into the field adjacent with a fishing lake and views across the town etc. And additional facilities are to be incorporated.

We will definitely return, not least to cycle the LLangollen stretch of the canal.
