Very good but not a typical cl

We have used this site before and since our last visit more caravan pitches have been added, but still overall the site is very good. Don’t know how this site can class it’s self as a cl as in the “cl” fenced off area 6 vans were there!! All the facilities are a good standard and all the pitches are fully serviced and well maintained. For us the cl shower needs updating but you can use any of the 2 others. The owner has done a really good job with the whole site and is obviously expanding into pods, huts etc. as well. Good price for this quality site. Not really a typical quiet 5 van cl but we will use it again.

Wow!

We booked the site as a one night stopover en route home from Scotland and to catch up with friends locally. We were suitably surprised upon arrival on site. Its exceptionally well laid out and the services are fab. Its close to local services and the farm/dog walk which is approx. 2 miles in length was really enjoyable and clearly marked. Jodrell Bank telescope could be seen from our pitch, and Nick who is very helpful offers local eggs/milk and newspapers. Next time we shall stay for more than one night and visit some local attractions.

Another fantastic stay at this beautiful site

We like this site so much, and being fairly local, we have stayed several times. Spur of the moment, phoned Nick, yes he had spaces so a weekend in February 2019 was booked. We had been there when the alpacas arrived so we wanted to see how they were settling, having formed an interest in them since friends of ours had started a herd. Again absolutely spot on, lovely views, once the mist cleared and Nick as always friendly and helpful. Sorry Nick we cleared you out of steak but your meat is beautiful, will be buying when you are restocked. This site is a gem, we really relax here and have good stays whatever the weather. Have seen some great sunsets from here. Every time we arrive Nick has built/installed something else and the dog showers are great.

What’s not to like

CL come campsite with terrific views from just about every pitch. For £20pn you can’t go wrong .. fully serviced pitch with WiFi and a choice of 2 dog walks . We’ve been twice and have a third booked , it’s over a 4hr drive for us and it’s worth it. 2 elsan points and 2 porta showers for 18 vans .. fantastic.

How can this be a CL?

This is a lovely and well maintained caravan site though with few facilities for the 24 or so hard standing pitches. Clearly from the photos on the web page it was once a CL but recently has been extensively expanded so if members are looking for a 5 pitch CL then this will not fit the bill. We chose this site based on it being a 5 pitch CL with facilities so we were very disappointed.

Really Lovely but is it a CL site?

We have visited this site a few times and it is well laid out, very quiet and has absolutely stunning views from nearly every pitch. There is a good farm walk on site and lovely sense of space overall. We didn't use the portaloo or showers and agree with another reviewer that £20 is enough to pay per night so shouldn't really have an extra charge for a shower. It is a site we will use again but do have an issue with it being called a CL site. There are approximately 20 + caravans on site, broken into different sections but nevertheless larger than you expect if you think you are going to a CL site. Is this a Caravan Club issue as they have obviously approved this classification, but it is misleading? We only ever use CL sites and purposely want to be based at smaller 5 van sites, this isn't one of those but is lovely in many other ways.

Brilliant CL

This is a superb CL immaculately kept and with great views for six miles or so across the valley. We watched Lapwings swooping and dancing across the fields each evening. We could even see Jodrell Bank telescope in the opposite direction. We found the WC and shower to be clean and adequate, housed in a plastic WC pod and shed. The site even has a washing machine and tumble drier! This site is so well kept that I would rate it as one of the bets CL’s we have ever stayed on. For all of our three night stay it was very quiet and peaceful helped no doubt by the fact that it is an Adults only site. Being retired we have had our turn of noisy kids! We found Nick to be a very helpful and pleasant person. However being a Farm site the entrance drive and way through farm buildings can get a bit muddy and uneven particularly when its wet.

A little peace and quiet and beautiful surroundings

This site was a delight from booking to arriving and for the duration of our stay, which sadly was only one night, Nick confirmed our booking and gave helpful tips on finding his site. Upon arrival it was clear where we should pitch and the views were breathtaking, we were blessed with some good weather which showed it off to its best. Our first task was to exercise our dogs and to our delight there was 3k a walk all around the farm that had been designated (with poo bins a plenty) There was a toilet facility and shower which my husband take advantage of and said it was super, lots of hot water, a place to put your clean clothes and all in all a fabulous site. Our pitch overlooked Jodrell Bank in the distance which was interesting. easy access from the M6 for our onward journey to the lakes. we will be back Nick!

Disappointing

It was easy to book on the website and we received an email confirmation with good information. We arrived on Friday late afternoon for a two night stay. On arrival we followed the signs and selected an available pitch as instructed in the email. We expected the owner to come and greet us, we didn’t see him all weekend and ended up trying to call him to pay before we left. He didn’t reply so we left the money with the farm house, not sure that is anything to do with the CL now. We have a motorhome with services on the drivers. In order to use the waste we couldn’t follow the suggested caravan awning layout. I would suggest that this CL is really designed for caravans, as if you couldn’t access the waste hole there isn’t a drive over grey water dump. Toilets are portacabin style, and the shower requires £1 coin, considering the CL is £20 I wouldn’t expect to pay for a shower. We have stayed in much better CLs for a lot less and with better facilities. I’m afraid we’ve marked this down as didn’t feel welcome, and if we had of had any issues the owner wasn’t contactable. The nearest pub The Red Lion doesn’t take dogs. We had a good meal in The Swettenham Arms.

A great site in an excellent location

I have been using this site since March as a base for my workplace which is less than 10 minutes drive. The layout of the site is great with all services on each (hardcore) pitch and on summer evenings the views are excellent. Even now as winter is approaching the site is dry and clean and makes it perfect for my working day need to be suited and booted. Definitely the best small site I have visited

Comment from the Club

Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review and we are so delighted you enjoy staying at Welltrough Hall Farm CL. For other peoples information (as we have had a couple of queries from members) judithandterry were not on the site for longer than the allotted 28 days but visited several times throughout the year. We hope this clears up any confusion.
