 Lovely site. Very clean toilet facilities. The pitches are right on the canal side and in sight of the fabulous triple lock.

Tom, the owner, was especially helpful.

We walked 15min to the village pub on the tow path and walked past another couple of locks, luckily enough it was busy with boats working through the locks, lovely to see.

Pub was nice, good menu and very hospitality.

 No problems with Grindley Brook campsite have stayed there over many years

Site itself kept very clean tidy

Facilities also kept to a very high standard

Also the owners very helpful, they on arrival wil over to put your caravan on to the pitch as they have a levelling system so that caravan will be level and the security on site is one of the best systems I have seen

I am pleased to leave a review on this site. welsh wanderer

 A lovely little site, spotlessly clean facilities and in a perfect location.

The hosts were great.

We were on the overspill field but it was lovely.

Would definitely stay again.

Reviewer: Bizz 2 reviews from this member

 This site is a little gem we found a number of years ago now and have returned to over and over.

The site is managed at an extremely high standard by the owners.

The facilities are excellent and attention to hygiene in the public areas is scrupulous.

The owners are very friendly, going out if their way to be as helpful as they can.

The area is perfect for walking and relaxing with the Llangollen canal just out of 'the back gate', literally.

All in all a perfect place for a holiday!

 Super site, lovely owners, just what the doctor ordered.

Great welcome, lovely position right next to the canal.

Older facilities but very clean.

A number of people had been using the site for years, always a good sign.

Have already booked for later on.

 This site is very well organised, they pitch your caravan for you,

Fully serviced hardstanding pitches.

Toilets were always very clean and tidy, bins were emptied regularly.

Owners could not do enough for you, we stayed later on the departure day and only charged £5.

Overall a great site

Reviewer: Daisymaywru 22 reviews from this member

 Always receive a warm welcome here. Easy too book.

Secure gates and vehicle gates.

Lovely site close too Canal. Lovely walk too Whitchurch. Around 1 hrs walk for me a slow walker.

Close to shop and filling station. Horse and Jockey pub. Lovely place. Walk the opposite way too Williey tavern pub.

Electric hook up ariel and water. Hard standing pitch

Little dog area and large run off field up top.

Busy site. All people we ever met there are very friendly and helpful.

We love this site.

Recently just found a take away in Whitchurch who delivers. Great.

Shower on site but we don't use them. L think cost 50p.

Reviewer: Foxypig 1 review from this member

 We have visited this site several times, on our own and with friends.

Love the location of this site; it has direct access to the canal towpath, a nice dog-friendly pub across the road and another approx 40 minute walk in the opposite direction. Whitchurch is approx an hours' walk along the towpath, where there are plenty of pubs and independent shops.

The site itself is directly off the main road, therefore some road noise can be heard if you listen for it, I was more tuned in to the noise of boats chugging and the birds!

There are toilets and showers and recycling facilities.

The showers are 50p and are lovely, warm and clean. They last long enough for a wash - no titivation! If you have long hair, or want a more luxurious shower, I would suggest £1.

 Very good site with serviced pitches standard, (water and electricity )

In rural country side adjacent to Llangollen canal, but little shade unfortunately in this very hot weather.

Excellent pub over the road.

Enjoyed our short break very much.

 Friendly laidback site. We forgot our tv aerial cable so were lent one by the owner.

Nice walk along the canal to Whitchurch and a lovely pub in the opposite direction along the towpath.

Site fees are very reasonable considering some prices other sites are charging this year.

Would definitely return if we were in the vicinity.

Reviewer: Lancashirelass57 1 review from this member

 A lovely quiet adult only site next to the canal. Great location, water and electric on each pitch. Great value for money.

The site managers are helpful and friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

The toilets and showers are clean and tidy and cleaned regularly to comply with Covid rules.

Pitches are adequate for a van and awning and the grass is cut daily.

There is a lovely lock side cafe about a 10 minute stroll for the retired camper !

And a shop and garage next door to the site which sells all the basic necessities.

The local pub is just across the road from the site and serves food.

An ideal site to relax or walk the canal l if feeling energetic
