Never tire of Overwater

Overwater Marina
We've just come home from our 3rd visit to Overwater and I've booked already for next Easter. I will never tire of this site, the ambience, the welcome, highly maintained facilities, great cafe and beautiful setting. We stayed on the CL as usual although their main site did appear to be slightly quieter than Easter last year. The relentless winter rains have left all grass areas around the site boggy, proper squelchy slippy mud in parts but all sites we've visited over the last 4 months up and down the country have been the same. The site forewarned us before arriving of a local road closure affecting access to the site but included diversion details for us to follow. The EHU bollards within the CL have been recently upgraded so no more long cable required, our shorter one was perfect and again much appreciated due to the waterlogged condition of the grass. The picnic bench alongside each pitch went unused however due to inclement weather and ground conditions. Facilities 5* in our opinion. This is a very easy site to chill and while away the hours or as a base for exploring the wider area. The reception staff were warm and welcoming and the small shop within reception had plenty of basic supplies as well as very nice local biscuits / treats. Have already booked for next Easter and am already looking forward to it.

Could be perfect

Overwater Marina
This is a lovely CL but could be better as it’s let down by a couple of things. The hard standing pitches are not wide enough to take the caravan and awning so if you need to use an awning it is half way on the grass, which in November was just ankle deep mud & because you set up with the caravan as close to the left to try and fit the awning on you’re needing to wade through the mud for water, waste & loo. The other downside is the CL pitches are next to the driveway for the other caravan pitches, cafe & marina and the speed that some people go past is worrying. Moan over besides these issues the site would be perfect and even better if the pitches where serviced.

Excellent

Overwater Marina
We can only agree with all the other reviews left previously. Arrived and had a very friendly and informative welcome from the reception. The facilities offered were excellent, shop and cafe onsite was a bonus. Good towpath to walk on to the local village, enjoyed watching the narrowboats moving through the locks, very friendly people on and off the site. Our only gripe is that we only booked for two nights instead of five!

almost perfect

Overwater Marina
the CL is the first set of pitches you come to on entering the Marina gate, you book your designated pitch so set up & let reception know you have arrived, a couple of site plans given when checking in. The pitches are very generous with plenty of grass around the h/s and a picnic table for each pitch, but bear in mind you need very long ehu leads on some of the pitches, There is a separate touring park further into the marina, which has been extended to include a seasonal area with some glamping lodges. Facilities include showers/toilets, a dishwashing sink, a dog wash area & an automatic black waste cassette cleaner. There is also a cafe on site. Access to the canal is via farm track at top of site, about 40 mins to reach Audlum along the towpath, 2 pubs on the wharf, we had a fabulous meal in the Shroppie Fly, the village itself is pretty with a few independent shops, butchers post office & a small Co-op, if you carry on up the flight of Audlem locks, its about an hour and 10 mins from the site. The opposite direction you can walk to Nantwich, around 5 miles. the nearest bus stop is in Audlum, so we walked in and got the bus back, bear in mind its then another 40 min walk along towpath back to the marina. There is a local bus service you can book to collect you from the marina but it doesnt accept dogs other than assistance dogs. Its a lovely area, quite busy with all the canal boats and there is a boat repair area so the tractor is out first think manoeuvring boats. Bear in mind as the CL is right by the entrance all site traffic will pass by including all the delivery lorries for the cafe, parcel delivery vans & supermarket delivery vans, I suppose we noticed it more as we had just come off an extremely quiet CL in the country but it wouldnt put us off returning

A perfect Easter!

Overwater Marina
Our 2nd stay here at Overwater and can't praise the site and its staff and fellow holiday makers enough for the special ambience felt around this site. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast on site and a few walks around the site looking at the narrow boats and the geese, swans, ducks and other wildfowl, even spotted a heron. We stayed on the CL, the pitches are more than adequate, long ehu leads required however. The small commercial site was beautifully maintained as were the spotless facilities which are available to use by all staying on site. There are also electric car charging points and a dog wash. Lots of seating around the marina itself, nothing better than a gentle amble and then a sit down to watch the world go by. The Audlem Lass boat service was running from the site into the village, all monies go to charity I believe. Well stocked shop at reception and the on site cafe serves fabulous home cooked fayre. We had Sunday lunch at the Bridge Inn in Audlem. Very pleased with the price, service and quality of our roast dinner. We have already booked again at Overwater Marina for next Easter.
