Train Lovers Paradise

First timers to this site and it won't be the last. As usual first class facilities albeit limited in quantity for the pitches available. The trains pass on the East Lancs Railway at regular intervals with different themes throughout the year, the weekend we stayed was diesel weekend but we did get to see some steam trains on Friday. One downside was the very poor quality of the broadband facility, yes I know you don't go away to sit on the Internet but if you've paid for a 12 month service it would be nice to be able to use it. No play area for the children but the country park is only just outside the entrance. And of course The Brown Cow public house on the doorstep is a bonus, we didn't try the food but what we saw and heard it was top notch grub. We will be back soon.

Excellent Campsite

A superb campsite which we stayed at recently whilst visiting the East Lancs Railway. Excellent facilities, spotlessly clean and in good order. The Warden was warm and welcoming after a long journey and a 'fount of knowledge' regarding local attractions. It should be noted that the grass pitches are not used during the latter months of the year hence you need to book well in advance as the site is very popular for the reasons stated above!

Really nice site

This was our first visit to this site, which is really nice, well set up with very friendly wardens. Being a nice little walk to the town and surrounding places to walk makes this an ideal site without having to use the car to get about. Will definitely be visiting this site again.

One of favourites

Over the years Burrs has become one of our favourite sites. Burrs has it all, hence my 5 stars for each category. Just give it a go and you will not be disappointed. A bonus is two pubs within very easy walking distance of your pitch, fishing ponds, river walks, wonderful facilities, terrific wardens who go the extra mile to help when they are needed. I would recommend Burrs to anyone. Don't forget the world famous Bury market for all your requirements, including black puddings. No doubt we will be back next year.

Lovely week

As always the Wardens are so helpful, amusing and they do a magnificent job. We had a great week at Burrs Country Park, the passing steam trains are a bonus, likewise the close proximity to the fantastic park. It is a lovely site. Facilities are good and scrupulously clean. Only draw backs.....the one washing machine was out of order (but being mended on the morning we left) and wifi reception was a pain as it kept failing meaning you are continually looking for a good spot to log on. I think the trees obscure the wifi aerial. Suggestion: could the mast be raised to it's full height which would alleviate the problem I think??? But altogether a brilliant week was spent here and we would most definitely return if up this way again.

Great for train enthusiasts

This was my first time at this site although I'm familiar with the area. Lots of interesting places to visit with good public transport nearby. The steam trains were an added interest and lovely to see. Folks wave at you from the trains and, Saturday evening, one actually stopped on the line adjacent to the site whilst serving the diners. Unfortunately, at the moment, the top end of the site can be a tad noisy whilst construction work is taking place on the track side but worth it I hope once the new station is built. Good size pitches, clean facilities block, park adjacent for exercising dogs, as well as a pub with play area and, on the whole, a good site. Pity that there's always the few who feel that the 5 mph and 12 noon arrival time is for everybody else and not them. There are two barriers and any more than one early arrival can cause problems at the first barrier for those already 'in residence' needing to get back on site. The access road is very poor as, apart from the cobbles which can't be helped, the area immediately in front of the first barrier and pub car park is in a dreadful state with mega potholes so care is needed. Will definitely use this site again.

Great site

We stayed here for the August bank holiday weekend and as usual had a good break. The site is ideally situated for getting into the hustle and bustle of Manchester should you want it, however Bury is more than adequate for a bit of retail therapy if that's what you fancy. If I were to be picky, our only gripe was that the grass was a bit long, could've done with a cut but like I said that's being really picky. All but one of the wardens were jolly and helpful, but hey ho, we all have an off day I suppose but I was only trying to be helpful by telling him in passing that the floors in the ladies facilities were still really wet after being cleaned, I didn't want anyone to slip and then have a go.....

nice site

just had a weekend at this site it was brilliant on arrival and during our stay the Wardens were very pleasant the site is very well kept the showers exceptional as one would expect on a caravan site the wardens work very hard to maintain the facilities if i had a gripe and i am not nit picking the water pressure is poor which i am not sure why and the entrance into the site the roadway is a little poor it requires a little attention as i am sure when we get bad weather it will get really bad also not a lover of cobbled roads i would have thought though the caravan may not be responsable but other than that it was good
