Needs improvement
Chester Fairoaks Club Campsite
Okay so it was November but lots of the pitches were flooded as were a lot of the site roadways. These all need raising/levelling so they are higher than the surrounding grass. Gone are the bins at each water point - there is 1 bin compound only and its near the exit so its a fair walk to take your rubbish from pitches at the other end of site. This is a so called environment saving to reduce bin bags but imo its just another job saving for Wardens that's now passed onto guests.
This site is no good for dogs because there is nowhere to walk them. There is a dog exercise area but its about the size of a tennis court and muddy. The road to the site has no footpath & is 50mph so not really safe to walk any distance to find better walking for them.
Onto the positives its close to Cheshire Oaks if you like shopping & the Rake Hall pub next door was really nice & the food good.

Not perfect but Okay
Chester Fairoaks Club Campsite
The negatives: Site could do with some surface drainage, large puddles on roadway after rain. The water to the basins in gents was not very hot, just above luke warm. Only one amenities block and it closes every day between 10:15 and 12:00 just when departures need it most (there is a "service toilet"). The pitches seem a little tight - with my caravan positioned between the posts as required only just enough room to open the car door when parked alongside.
The positives: Good location for city visits. Good mobile and TV reception. Close to pubs (although torch required at night and no pavements on 40mph limit road). Close to Cheshire Oaks Outlet village, if that is your kind of thing.
Disappointing stay
Chester Fairoaks Club Campsite
Stayed for 3 night very good location for shops ect being coming for years to this site mostly bank holidays and school holidays. Very disappointed by site this year all hard stand pitched where in a poor state and in need of lot of attention and maintenance. Toilet facility looking very very tired and again no maintenance and attention to detail being given to these facilities. Night lighting to the camp non existence so if you need water do it in the day time. I was lucky it was a full moon when I wanted to top my water up one evening so I could see what I was doing!!! All wardens very pleasant but didn't see much off them really as they no longer come round to pick the bins up around the camp you have to go to a main bin compound at the exit of the camp. would of been nice to have some pumpkins at reception or something to celebrate the season. This camp used to do so much for the Halloween season in the past.

Three cheers for the wardens!
Chester Fairoaks Club Campsite
I fail to understand why some people who obviously have delusions of grandeur and self importance find it necessary to castigate the wardens on this site for issues that most of the general public would regard as absolute nonsense. Whilst I realise the wardens are employed by the CAMC to undertake the maintenance, cleanliness and efficient running of the site they should not be expected to deal with some of the worst traits my fellow campers feel is acceptable.
For example on our latest visit to this site we witnessed a who man disappeared into the male toilets carrying a full dog poo bag. Two minutes he reappeared minus the poo bag. Yep too lazy to find the appropriate receptacle he had dumped it in the waste paper bin! How about soiled nappies stuffed behind the cysteine or human faeces clinging to the lid of the chemical disposal point. Let’s face it, it wasn’t the wardens! But who’s left to clean it up then try to maintain a happy smiling face? …The wardens!
This site is immaculate, well maintained and well placed for loads of local attractions and eateries. The toilets, save for the actions of the individuals I have alluded to are pristine.
Finally the wardens are lovely, friendly and very accommodating. So the next time you think one of them has been short with you or your precious pride has been hurt think again!
I don't complain often but with this site I have to.

First impressions -
Strange to be greated by security guards at the entrance of the site. Not sure why, didn't ask.
Doesn't look good but I guess if they had troubles in the past then it's reassuring to have them there.
Negative points-
I felt abit frustrated that my son (who is autistic) couldn't play soft tennis by our pitch. Even thou he was using a soft sponge ball (there wouldn't be any damage caused to any vehicle or to any awning) but was told off by a warden.
Playground is hidden by trees so vision is blocked, there's no way of seeing them playing on thier own.
So not very child friendly.
Hot water wasn't hot as I like, other CAMC sites that we've stayed at have been hotter.
Some club members/non club members didn't show any respect for the shower block. Disgusting toilets.
Bins are by the exit.
The walk out of the site- minor road but very busy, there's no pathway,very narrow grass verge to walk on. Ok if you are adult, but quite dangerous when you have a toddler and an autistic child at tow, as some vehicles speed along the road, with no consideration to the public.
What it had going for it -
A very nice pub called Rake Hall, which we stopped at for dinner on our first night. It's the first pub you come to, when walking out of the site towards Cheshire Oaks.
Friendly staff and the site itself is looked after. Good location for Cheshire Oak retail outlet and Chester Zoo. A quiet and peaceful campsite.
Would I return again? Probably not. This site isn't for us.
