Reviewer: E11en 1 review from this member

 'Go Ape' was our reason behind staying on this camp-site. Its 10 mins from the 'Go Ape' station which was brilliant for us 40 somethings, as we have been known to get lost in Asda.

The campsite: idyllic and beautifully kept. The shower / toilet facilities: immaculate, but closed between 11am and 12.30 for cleaning which was inconvenient - departure time 12pm.

Main gripe, strictly, after 11pm, no talking above a whisper and definitely no laughing.

Would recommend this site to the over 60's only, not big enough site for families with children.

Reviewer: Caffers 1 review from this member

 This was the first site we have used as brand new members of the Caravan & Camping Club being new to family camping.

We booked two nights at this site as it is close to home (in case of disasters with weather etc) and because it looks great in the club brochure. We were not disappointed.

The site is lovely and is very well run by really pleasant & friendly people who are there if you need them but leave you alone if you don't - the perfect blend. Very relaxed. Other things to note:

> The toilet/shower blocks are immaculate and the facilities overall are well kept and clean as a whistle.

> The pitches are level and well prepared

> There are baskets of flowers on top of the wooden bollards between sections of the site - a really pretty touch.

> Ancient Citroen Pizza van (with it's own chimney!) on Saturday nights is a great idea and good value.

> Go to the butchers in Kelsall for your barbie meat / sausage / burgers etc - the nicest we have had for some time, especially their home-made sausages.

> Delamere Stores close to the site in case you've forgotten anything, plus the site shop has a small selection of essentials.

> The information 'Summerhouse' on the site is has a wealth of really well researched and presented local information - even though we are from down the road, it proved very handy.

> Very close to and within a couple of minutes walk from Delamere Forest - brilliant waymarked walks, cycling etc and a lovely environment. (Our 5 yr old walked there in her Crocs, did a 3 mile walk in the forest, and walked back with no great issue as the paths are so well prepared)

> We didn't try it, but Go Ape (a short walk away in the forest) looks fantastic - next time!

> Snugbury's Ice Cream at the picturesque Railway Station - beautiful and guilt free if you have walked there! (2 minutes away on foot)

> Very little on the downside. The road that runs alongside the site can be a little noisy on occasion during the night as it's fast and straight, so take some earplugs if you're a light sleeper. Not a major issue at all - just be prepared especially if you are in a tent.

> There was a small issue with noise after 11pm from one group of campers on the first night, but this was dealt with very well by the site team and the second night brought a wonderful night's sleep.

Overall, this site gets 9 1/2 out of ten from us - a very high standard all round, very well run by lovely people and in a beautiful area. Go there.

 Just wanted to say, lovely little site but management were rude!

Toilets great, clean and well stocked.

Forest right on the doorstep and fantastic for walking bike riding and dog friendly.

Would visit the are again but unfortunately not this site.

Local area is fantastic, loads to see and do, right in the heart of Cheshire, close to Chester and Frodsham being a great place to eat out.

Reviewer: Jms1968 1 review from this member

 First visit to this site.

Great location parked the car on arrival and spent the week getting out and about on bikes buses and trains.

Very handy for train station and short trip into Chester. Friends and family railcard well worth getting for the amazing savings even on the shortest of trips.

Lovely bike rides around the forest & well marked out.

As for the campsite I found it to be very clean and tidy, lovely hot clean showers.

Just a few Gripes.

The keypad entry system proved to be a pain initially as it required reading glasses & paper with code on to be found prior to mid night essential visit (soon memorised keypad)

This is probably essential due to proximity of the site to visitor centres and train station but does remind you of being at work!

My main gripe is that all facilities are closed for an hour and a half from 11am for cleaning. Not sure what the reason for this is, usually not a problem as off site by then but on packing up day it would be nice to freshen up prior to departure that is due to be before 12.

I gather this is standard practice for many sites but does seem odd.

Would visit the site again as plenty in the area still to see.

 Just got back from this cracking site. Staff friendly but not too intrusive. Toilet, shower and dishwashing facilities were immaculate. Pitches seem to be mostly flat. Non-electric field at the front of the park did seem to be a little prone to flooding in the middle but then again we did have some very heavy showers. Eleven o'clock curfew very well observed and as far as I know did not have to be enforced. A few too many caravans for my liking but yet to find a site where there isn't. Overall 9/10, nothing can be perfect.

Reviewer: Gilly16 12 reviews from this member

 Only spent 2 nights on site as a stop over on our way back to Devon. Wardens were very friendly and helpful, showed us to our site and pointed out all facilities on our arrival. Lovely clean toilet and shower facilities.Good little shop but not open very long hours. Great walks in forest adjoining site, ideal for dogs. Ideally situated for visiting interesting areas in Cheshire, ei. Anderson Lift well worth a visit.Would certainly recommend this site for a longer stay.

Reviewer: PaulineMRoss 16 reviews from this member

 A lovely setting, with trees and walks all round. The site itself is spacious, with wide roads and large pitches, but the access involves a tight turn off a narrow country road and there are two gates to open/close. All the facilities are immaculate, with full recycling, but what a pity almost everything is clustered around the entrance, making a long walk from the far end of the site.

This is a great site for those who like walking or cycling, and for dog-owners too.

Reviewer: Janbo25 17 reviews from this member

 We booked this site for a weekend as not to far from home and having been members with c&cc for nearly 12 months and not having tried any of there sites thought we would give it a go.

We were very impressed with the site, our hardstanding pitch was a very good size and level which made setting up really easy.

All the facilities on the site were spotless which is a credit to the management on site.

We went with some friends and the children took there bikes, the site is fantastic location for both walks and bike rides and we had some great fun in the forest which you can get to straight from the site. My son learnt to ride his bike without stabilisers on the site to because of how safe it was.

We could hear both the road and the trains but within an hour or so of arriving you forget completly about them both and it did not affect any part of our weekend.

We will definitely be booking onto this site again and would highly recommend to others.

Reviewer: Stewmunn 12 reviews from this member

 Another great site for the Camping and Caravaning Club. From the moment that we arrived we were welcomed with open arms. The facilities are excellent, the staff very friendly.

It was recommended that we order a home baked pie on the Tuesday evening for delivery on the Wednesday and we were not dissappointed, it was very meaty and tasty.

We visited Chester and took a trip in to North Wales, both of which we would recommend although we were dissapointed when we went in to Rhyll, probably not our scene.

Reviewer: JazzyJaz 5 reviews from this member

 Our first visit here. Would definitely go again and recommend with no hesitation.

Shown where all the facilities were, which are absolutely spotless, as soon as we arrived and then shown to a choice of pitch.

Plenty of space between the pitches with room in front also so you weren't too close to the road round the site.

Great location for walks and cycling around the forest. Go Ape within walking distance.

Pitches have lighting next to them at night so if you do need to visit the facilities at least you can find your way there without any difficulty.

Nice ice cream by the station.

Didn't venture anywhere by car but as we went for the walking & cycling there was no need to.

Very clean well maintained site with pleasant staff.

Would be good idea if they could have a small area where the kids could play ball games although appreciate not everybody wants that.

Reviewer: Barlowkandh 2 reviews from this member

 We have just returned from a 9 night stay at this site. The site was smaller than we expected with no facilities for children to play.

The shower and washing facilities were very clean and it was ideally located for visiting Chester and surrounding areas, Go Ape & forest walks, but 9 nights was too long on such a small site.

The staff weren't quite as friendly and helpful as for example the Winderemere Camping & Caravan Club site - our favourite.

The shop could barely be described as stocking the basic essentials and was only open for 1 hour in morning & 1 in afternoon.

Not really our cup of tea!

Reviewer: MarkyJ1 3 reviews from this member

 Great little site. Ideal location for the zoo & chester town centre. Facilities were clean & well looked after.

Only draw back with the site was the shops opening hours are very limited, but great little shop a mile down the road.

Very friendly people all round. I will go back

Reviewer: Joona 14 reviews from this member

 Had a cracking week, weather was brilliant and the site typical cc club standard. It is right by the train station with trains running to chester and manchester.
A mile down the road is a shop which on certain days deliver meat pies to the site shop and I can certainly recommend them. For the energetic amongst you go ape is next to the station.
On the down side to my visit I couldn't use my awning due to a mistake in the booking but this didn't spoil a great stay. Shall definitely return.
This site has no facilities for children as this is a new site .

 This is a great site second time we've been. Just through a gate and your in the forest great for the dog many beautiful walks. No shops or pubs nearby, on site shop carries a few items.
Managers are very friendly and helpful you can order papers for following morning. Train next door is a request stop takes you into Chester. Showers are clean with plenty of hot water keypad on door.

 We have just returned from a lovely long weekend stay at this site - The Delamere Forest Camping & Caravanning Site!

The staff are really pleasant, helpful & friendly.

The toilets were clean. My eldest daughter said the showers were fine, no problems at all. I didn't use the showers as we used the family bathroom. I was a little disappointed with the family bathroom, I would've liked a bath for my 2 smaller children, but they enjoyed the shower none the less!

The site is in a brilliant location for walking and cycling and to visit 'go ape' which is a short walk away. The handmade Ice cream next to the train station is a must!

The reception carries all the essentials if you have forgotten something! You can also order your morning paper from them!

There is also a little village shop approx 30 mins walk away - (its only a couple of mins by car!) Please note: The lovely walk is along a busy road but you do have a path to walk on, we also had 2 small children with us, we just made sure we kept hold of them at all times (like you would!)

There was only one more thing I would change about the site if I could, and that would be to add a play area for the small ones, there was a little area where all the children seemed to gather, but nothing for them to play on!

We would definitely stay here again!
