Quiet yet convenient - Brilliant staff

We were nervous about this when we booked it given the proximity of the 2 motorways and nearby Airport but it turned out this site was lovely and quiet. There is so much to do in the area. Couple of things we found were: - Chester by bus was easy and cheap - Crazy Golf at Paradise Island in the Cheshire Oaks shopping Complex was superb. - Cheshire Oaks shopping had great discounts - Ellesmere Port Waterways museum - wonderful and definitely worth the visit - Speke Hall (National Trust) and gardens were well worth the visit (but watch out for the toll bridge cost - you may want to find an alternate route) All that plus the staff were brilliant given we had a puncture on the way up. They were really helpful throughout our stay. Will definitely think about going back

Excellent site. Generous, friendly and helpful staff

Excellent site. Generous, friendly and helpful staff. Wonderful selection of unusual herbs available to try, with suggestions for use. The whole site is immaculate and beautifully cared for and well run. Recommend Premier plans nearby for healthy plant bargains and a good cuppa.

Nice clean site

We were here in July and unfortunately had a couple of days of really heavy rain, so experienced the slight pitch flooding. However, the water disappeared very quickly between showers! Our main concerns - with every club site and not just Chester - are the new reductions in site services. The site bin areas dotted around have been replaced by one large communal Biffa bin area, and this can be a long walk for some people. It will prove to be problematic; people will no longer separate their recycling and will just dump large bags of mixed rubbish which can already be seen to be happening. There are no light bollards at night which is just asking for trouble from a safety point of view. It seems we are paying more for membership yet receiving less. What are we paying forty pounds a night for? Useable WiFi is NOT included, the free WiFi cannot be relied upon which is why Premium is offered at a high price. We use very little electricity, basically TV and charging two phones. We are being asked by signage to use our own facilities where possible, to ‘save the planet’ by emissions, light pollution etc….but really it’s just to save CAMC money. The toilets are always clean, which is a given, not an extra. The site was clean and tidy, but could do with a drop box at the exit barrier for key fobs.

Nice site, handy location

We went in February, it was a bit wet but our pitch was fine. Pitch was massive, had loads of room. Toilets were spotless, possibly the cleanest we've seen. Play area is a massive bonus for the kids. Hand location for Chester Zoo, Cheshire oaks and other bits around.

Visit March 2024

Have been to the site many times, in sunshine, rain and even snow. This time it was when it had been raining. Sadly the site was extremely water logged. The pitch we chose was for an awning but we were not putting ours up on this occasion due to the really bad weather. The pitch itself had a part where the previous occupants caravan had sunk (wheel) into the pitch. When we came to hook up to the electricity, the grass was submerged under water. I informed the wardens and was advised to put down cardboard so that we could walk on it! On a positive note, the site is really close to Cheshire Oaks and there are so many great places to eat. It really is ideally placed. Despite being waterlogged I am still going to visit again, but possibly when the weather is better and the site not waterlogged.

Excellent

Just returned from a four night stay at this site. The first thing to say was the facilities were the cleanest we have ever seen on a club site. Every time we went in they looked as if they were brand new and had never been used. Plenty of hot water and nice cubicles for the showers, you could actually have a shower without getting any of your clothes wet. Bus stop about 10 to 15 minutes walk away, bus service to Chester good with a stop at the zoo. Chester itself is very clean and welcoming and we will certainly return to this excellent site. Some people have previously complained about surface water on the site but let’s be honest here, we have had unprecedented rainfall in recent months and travelling there you only have to look at the flooded fields. The wardens are doing their best.

Excellent site

This really is a fantastic site in the perfect location to explore all that this area has to offer. Lovely welcome from the South African couple when we arrived, who gave plenty of information on local attractions, pubs, shops and bus timetables. All the facilities were lovely and clean. All heated and cosy. Spacious pitches. Walking distance to nice pubs and Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet where you can get the buses for trips to Chester and Liverpool. Good idea to take a torch for the walk back to the site after a day out, as the last part of the walk doesn't have a pavement. Not the sites fault! Would definitely use this site again.

Miles too expensive

Miles too expensive for what it is. Basically a car park. Very wet poor drainage, most signs fallen over, roadways not well defined and need maintaining, Bins (skips)only on exit, a bit of a walk with yr rubbish. Washrooms ok. Dog area was small and lacked drainage so un able to use. Will not be returning.
