Not as good as hoped
Visited Sept 2015.
I always like to check reviews when I'm planning a trip, to know what to expect when we arrive tired after a long journey. Arriving at Halton farm though,things were not at all as I expected. Firstly the positive things here. It's a really good position for visiting the wealth of tourist places in the area- Chirk castle, Erdigg house, the famous aqueduct, etc. etc. The outlook is lovely, of nearby fields and woods, and there is plenty of room to pitch where you like. But- the entrance is VERY tight, even for our little 2 berth, and the field is longish pasture, with soft ground, not as cut as other reviews led me to expect- maybe the time of year affects this. The main gripe for me though, something that I find unacceptable, was that there were piles of large dog poo everywhere, from the 3 farm dogs that roam around. We found 4 piles just around our van after pitching. Other negative points I’m afraid are that there is noticeable road noise from 5am onwards from the nearby A5, there is no shower or games room as stated in this years handbook, and the grim portaloo I would personally use in 'emergency only'!!
It is a dog friendly place though, with lots of space, but we will not be returning.
