More than just a stopping off site!

We recently had two nights at Burrs Country Park enroute to Southport and were certainly pleasantly surprised. So close to major cities but very rural. The site was very spacious, the wardens great with high quality facilities. Having a good pub on the doorstep and the East Lancs steam railway on the site perimeter was a bonus. Maybe one day there could be a small station in country park? The country park although not as big as expected is good for walking with lots to look at. Not so good for cycling however although there are routes further afield. Recommended!

April 16

We had 6 nights in early April. Very pleasant and helpful Wardens. Spacious Site which has matured since the Caravan Club video was made making a very pleasant environment. There are ducks wandering around and rabbits could been seen playing during the day. From the bus stop, which is about a 10 minute walk, you can catch the bus into town or for £3 per person or for £6.30 buy a 'Day Rider' ticket which covers the bus and trams to get into Manchester. The trams run until past midnight so it's no problem to see a show in Manchester, you won't find a bus that late but a taxi back from the station was around £6, all very easy. We will be back again in June to see another show. Don't forget if you want to ride on the steam train you can get a voucher from the Warden for 2 for 1, we walked to the station from the site, about 40 mins.

A Hidden Gem!

We booked this site blind and were a bit concerned about its location, but what a surprise when we arrived! Beautifully laid out site, perfect pitches and extremely friendly staff. The facilities were perfect with a perfectly clean and warm shower block. Its close proximity to Bury Town centre meant that we were able to walk there in about 25 mins and spend time (and money!) at the Market and ride the delightful East Lancashire Heritage Railway. We will definitely return later in the year with our bikes as there are plenty of routes to explore. There is also a Bus stop just outside the site offering a convenient service into Town. The Pub adjacent to the Site was also a charming and convenient place to visit. We would thoroughly recommend this Site for a very comfortable and convenient place to stay whilst en-route or just to chill out for a break without having to travel a great distance if you are in the North West area.

Nice!

Nice site, excellent washroom facilities. It rained a lot when we were there and our pitch flooded but I don't know if there was anything that could have prevented that. Country park next door is nice and a pub with good food a 2 minute walk away. Overall would come back hopefully to a dryer stay!

Easter Break.

Found the site under new Wardens who are EXCELLENT, they were so helpful this year, kept the site quiet and under control, which we have not had previously. Still needs more washing machines please, so that one does not have to wait hours while on holiday to wash the family clothes. Also more service pitches please. Any hope of the slope up to the caravan site being improved??? pretty rough on expensive outfits. Thank you.

Good pubs nearby with good food

A very nice site. There are steam trains running along the side of the site, it would be nice if you could get on one of the trains at the site instead of having to go into Bury town Centre, ( about 2-3 miles walking, There was not anywhere to buy a morning paper on site, but we are told that the wardens are going to get a contract set up with a newsagent to bring them to the site. all in all very nice site. Good food in the 2 pubs near buy and nice walks around are interesting as well.

Great Little Site

Our first visit to this site we had a warm welcome from the on site wardens. Great location close to Bury town centre. Good pub on site with good food. Lovely walks along the river into Ramsbottom. Will definitely visit again.

SERVICED PITCH

We had a very warm welcome from the on duty warden who was very helpful. Our only concern was that the pitch we were on-No4-was muddy due to there being lack of chippings. It badly needed resurfacing, otherwise a lovely site which we have visited many times.
