Everything was perfect in every way

Rachael

Date of stay: 13th July 2025

Caravan and site were beautiful and we were able to check in an hour early.Caravan was very clean and spacious, I had requested a travel cot but that had been put in the wrong caravan, but easily sorted. 9am checkout time was pretty early considering we had to walk to the opposite end of the site to separate recycling and throw out rubbish.Our holiday was 5* but I think the information on the website needs updating. The nearby park and ride is completely abandoned and overgrown, it has been closed for a long time so should be removed from the website. We did get the number 10 bus into Chester though and this was nice and easy, running every 30 minutes.The website could be clearer about what it is provided: x1 tea towel, x1 bathmat, x1 sponge and washing up liquid is provided but NOT towels. Definitely bring your own towels, ovenglove and some kitchen tongs for cooking sausage and bacon etc.Wifi has very poor signal but not really an issue for us. We didn't use any of the facilities so can't comment. There is no shop or anything on site, but the industrial park which has lidl/asda and lots of other shops and fast food is nearby in the car

Absolutely beautiful site, we have been before around 8 years ago so didnt hesitate to return and pleased to say its exactly the same high standards as before. Caravan was lovely, spotlessly clean and everything seemed very new. The site is quiet, no clubhouse etc but very close to Chester centre and the wales border- we visited both and highly recommended! Thankyou for a lovely week
