Three days of peace and relaxation

The reviews about this park are all correct, it is a little tired and needs some TLC, there are potholes on the road in (similar to other sites we have visited) but all this is of no importance when you consider the amazing position within reach of the lovely village of Chirk (great local shops including two lovely gift shops), fabulous walks and cycle routes, the Llangollen canal and great viaducts, great wildlife and views within a peaceful setting.  Yes there is a factory nearby, but this does not affect the site or nearby beauty spots but does give local employment. The wardens are extremely helpful and do their best to find you the type of pitch you want but this is a popular site and not always possible. In addition we walked into Chirk and had an amazing lunch with friends at the Hand Hotel, good service,  not overpriced and good food. I have to say we were extremely lucky in that we had probably the best and warmest 3 days that we have had this April and that probably helped!  But, we will be back, a great site.

Quiet site

As always we read the reviews before we booked.  The approach road is not great as does have pot holes.   The shower block why old was serviceable and up to cc standards they were spotless clean however water pressure was low.  We experienced no notice from the factory and only time we noticed a smell was when out for a walk and as it was melted chocolate it was not unpleasant.  There is a children's playground but it was not in use when we visited and only suitable for small children.  The site is well placed and near to both bus stop and railway station.  You can easily walk into Chirk and to the nearby aqueaduct if you do go through canal tunnel you will need a touch.  Chirk has a lovely butcher and greengrocers well worth visiting but butchers does shut dearly on Saturday.  If you need a supermarket there is a Morrison's and Sainsburys in Oswestry along with a lovely sweet shop complete with train track and train around the store. If you visit the cafe by the aqueaduct it is nice although staff can be off hand but is pricey.  Will definitely be back as a relaxing site well located and not far from home.

A bit tired?

Stayed on LMP for seven night at the beginning of April.Approach road did not create a favourable impression at all-full of large potholes.When it rained the rain water was cascading from the toilet block guttering onto the footpaths-because it was clogged with leaves and debris.The toilet blocks need new showers,water dribbling from shower heads.The site needs a bit of loving care,and a good clean to bring it up to the standard of other CC sites.We've been to LMP several times,but this last visit did not make a favourable impression.Are there plans for the future ?

Great Stopover and Long Stay

We stopped for one night last week.  We stay here often.  We love the trees, the wildlife and the wildflowers.  It is very handy for Chirk Castle, which has great walks. The Llangollen canal and the Dee valley are very close by.  Two pubs are 15 minutes away by shank's pony in Chirk village.  There is also a good Coop. The only fly in the ointment is the motorhome service point.  It is set in the first glade past the entry barrier. If you are not in this glade, you need to go all round the site, out of the exit barrier, back in the entry barrier and then enter the glade.  The waste point is a heavy manhole cover lifted by two hooks disguised as large rivets.  You can either drive over the drain and then try to lift the cover from under your motorhome (impossible), or lift the cover first and try not to drive into the drain as you go over it. Health and Safety it is not!  This is why the site does not get five stars.

Rabbits!!

Stayed for 2 nights in March, friendly relaxing setting, good walks for dogs and owners in the surrounds of Chirk castle and the Aquaduct, usual amenities in Chirk town centre including a couple of decent pubs, CO-OP and fast food including a Thai noodle bar! Good position to sample the delights of Shropshire and North Wales.

March 2016 Lady Margarets Chirk

We stayed for a few nights mid March and really enjoyed our visit. We loved the walks in the local area and the convenience of the dog walking areas. It was really peaceful and quiet with extremly clean and spotless facilities. The smell of chocolate on occasions was unusual but quite enjoyable. Definately visit again very professional.

March stay

We stay in Lady Margaret's several times a year and love it there. I have been commenting on the potholes for several years with nothing being done. They are hard to avoid if there are walkers on the road. My other gripes ( sorry!) were showers that merely trickled at times and a hairdryer that was a complete waste of time. My other problem was that I can barely lift the recycling bin lids as I have arthritis in the shoulders. Please can we have the ones with slot-in holes ? I enjoyed my stay however and will be back. The cheapest diesel was again at Sainsburys Wrexham.

Pot holes

We have been coming to this site for the last 20 years and we have to agree with the other comments about the toilet block being tired and run down.Most of the wardens are friendly,but have noticed not so with all the campers,a lot of people will avoid eye contact at all cost and just not say hello (why are they camping?) As for the pot holes on the approach road to the site how on earth can you miss them,they can do serious damage to your car and van.We had an anti roll bar snap once in similar conditions and it cost £450 to repair.We think this site is due for a refit??
