We have just come back from a weekend break at this CL. We've been looking for a CL that we can go to on a Friday when we finish work until Sunday/Monday am not too far to travel to and this ticked all the boxes so we've added this to our weekend break list. Clean, tidy site with fantastic views across open countryside and Jodrell Bank beyond. Has another site for 6 non-CL caravans and working towards increasing this on a field behind the CL site too. Has a rally field but all well organised so you are not tripping over each other. Has a shower block but not used as we have on-board facilities and also has a little shower for the pets after their jolts. Well worth a visit.
Best farm site we have been to
We used this site for a breather, on the way to the lakes, from E.Anglia. To say we were impressed by the site is an understatement, as we arrived. Views from the pitches, were brilliant, and spacing, although not secluded, was enough to give separation. The farm walks take in some lovely views, and we went round quite a few times while there.
Toilet and shower are basic, but adequate. You can get two done in the shower, for the same coin, so double up, with changing and showering in turn.
Locally, for us the walks were great, although the nearest pub to the site,( Red Lion ), did not accept dogs, and the host was far from amenable, when we visited. There is a far better reception/ale/dog friendly/food quality place within 3 miles that has been pub of the year. So head for the Swettenham Arms. ( The short cut down to the ford, is the best option as you approach, so look for the signs ) We WILL use this gem again.
A little gem
First time we have stayed at this CL and we're very impressed. Very tidy and well maintained site with the grass in between the hard standing pitches kept lovely and short. All the pitches are a good size and fairly flat. Good information room with washer and dryer, eggs and meats to purchase. Super pitch type fresh and waste water, depending on usage the water pressure can drop a little. Excellent free wi-fi and perfect tv reception.Very peaceful site with great views. Easy booking and excellent email information updates.The 4 star rating was because of the portaloo toilet and the £1 coin operated shower, surely at this price the shower should be included in the price.
Favourite Site
This is our favourite small site, it has stunning views from all pitches and has all the facilities you need. There is a water tap and waste drain on each pitch and the hard standing and grass are in perfect condition. Nick has generated a Farm Walk around his land which is perfect for adults and pets alike. It also leads to The Red Lion pub for some refreshment.
There is a shop which sells a wide range of quality meats etc. Being in the centre of Cheshire there is plenty to do and the town of Homes Chapel is close by. Well worth a visit, if you can get in!!

SIMPLY STUNNING
If you want a CL that has just about everything then this is the site for you. Fully serviced pitches, showers and toilets. Good phone reception as well as satellite & digital TV reception. On top of this no matter what pitch your on you can be sure of a stunning view. This is a site that you can stay a week with ease. Nick the owner very friendly and knowledgeable, don't forget to take your BBC and try his farm assured beef from his on-site shop. Some of the pitches however have quite a slope so don't for get your chocks and rock pegs.
Give it a try you'll not be disappointed, this is a site that you must follow the Site Directory Handbook directions.
Remember to book as the pitches didn't stay vacant for long. We hope to return soon.

Should be on everyone's wish list
We have just returned from a few days at this amazing site and we're incredibly impressed. From the ease of booking, communication once booked and the welcome we received, all were outstanding. The site itself is in open countryside with wonderful views of the Peak District one way, and the impressive Lovell telescope at Jodrell the other. Not to mention a few cows. The pitches are hardstanding with electricity, water and drainage on each one. We use our own shower so this has become vital. There is also a dog shower and walk. There are lots of things to do in the area. We went to the Anderton Boat lift, Lion Salt works and Jodrell Bank. The Red Lion (walkable) and the Swettenham Arms are both worth a visit. The site is very quiet and peaceful, more so since its adults only. Not that we dislike children but ours are grown up now so we find adults only sites more relaxing. The site also sell meat and eggs, there is an Aldi not far away in Holmes Chapel.
The site hasn't been open long so I suspect it's a bit of a well kept secret at the moment. We will certainly go back and if the visitors book is any guide so will most other people.
We had no problems with water pressure so maybe the experience of an earlier reviewer was a one off.
Stunning
What can I say just spent 2 nights at this beautiful site
The sun was out peace and quiet
The dogs loved the walks
Excellent site
Down side (Nick did say) water pressure poor however the chilled shower was refreshing ;-)
Will I go Back ???? Just booked another weekend
Thank you

Ssshhhhh, too nice to broadcast about!!
A great CL with very easy access, lovely panoramic views from all pitches, well maintained spacious serviced pitches and ample dogs walks. Our only little grumble which really did not spoil our time was the lack of water pressure. Non existent if in use elsewhere on site which is a little frustrating but not by any means a deal breaker. Added bonus is a dog wash, great idea which more sites should offer especially those in the countryside and if I was to suggest maybe a secure 'off lead' area for dogs, then that would just top this site off nicely. Nick was on hand if needed and came to introduce himself on the 1st evening, his mobile number is noted around the site in the info room and on his welcoming blackboard so if needed is contactable but it was nice to be left to it. We will visit again as it's now in our top 3 list of CL'S.
