The CL is well maintained, and convenient for everything in the town - pubs, shops, transport etc. as well as being in reach of th surrounding countryside. New Mills Marina is an area of pale gravel so its usuable all year round. There was a slight slope so motorhomes would benefit from wedges if they prefer to stay level. The facilities are all well maintained and modern, there are two "bathrooms" each containing a shower, toilet and basin, one has a shower cubicle and the other bathroom is a large wet-room, and also has all the handles to make it accessible for people with disabilities - there there are a couple of 1/2 inch steps getting into the building though. The site has plenty of room for 5 units, as well as numerous berths for narrow boats. There is also some on-land holiday accomadation on site if you want to meet up with friends, a cottage the sleeps 2-4 and one that sleeps up to 10. We had a quick look the smaller cottage after it was cleaned for change over and it all looked clean and well maintained, with hard floors handy for walkers. The washing up facilities were outside under a roof in a sheltered corner; though there was no lighting above ankle height so washing up after dark required a head-torch (we were here in December, so thats most of the time!) but clean, modern and lots of hot water. There are numerous walks in New Mills and surrounding hills. There are two railway stations (one in New Mills and one in Newtown near the CL) and a bus station if you want to leave the van while exploring - or as we did - go for a long walk over Kinder and the get the train back. There is a micro-brewery on the same site as the CL too, selling a number of their own beers. Great all-year-round site in a town setting with good access to the hills.
