We visited here for two nights as a treat for our 7 year old granddaughter, her first time away with us in Millie! We arrived just after 1.15pm and there was already a queue of units waiting to check in, the queue snaked back out onto the road. We realised as we went got further in it was because a caravan in front of us had decided to change their whole booking at the desk, hence the delay. Staff were very helpful and dealt with this as quickly as possible. Once inside the site we drove around to pick a pitch, we stopped at a water point only to be told we had to use the MSP further along, which we'd missed so had to go back out through the barrier then in again!
Got our tank full and went to our pitch, we chose one near the entrance, it was in a lovely spot, in full sunshine and overlooking fields full of horses. Our pitch was a good size and almost level, no need to use ramps.
This is such a lovely site, full of gorgeous flowers, well laid out and obviously very well mantained. It's in a superb position too as you're so close to so many amenities yet far enough away from the main traffic junction so to not be disturbed by road noise.
A 15 minute walk will take you over to Cheshire Oaks if shopping is your thing, plus plenty of places to eat here. From here you can pick up the X1 bus which can take you to Chester, the Zoo and into Liverpool.
Also close by are a few delighful pubs, all within easy walking distance, this site really does tick all the boxes!
Our first evening was very relaxed, we had a BBQ and Lottie was quite happy riding around on her scooter and soon made friends at the play area! Our neighbours also had grandchildren with them so Lottie was constantly off and away with them, she loved the freedom!
On our second day as a surprise, we walked over for the bus and went to Chester Zoo. As we're from Liverpool, we have visited Chester Zoo numerous times but not for several years. It had changed to so much with so much more to see and do-we had an amazing day!
This site is definitely worth a visit especially if you have young children with you! Having said that we will probably return as a couple as it's so nice-well done Chester Fairoaks!
