Brilliant site
Just visited The Burrs site in Bury what a gem,staff very helpful,cleanliness ,impeccable,wish we had stayed a bit longer,we were visiting friends in Whitworth near Rochdale but we will return again . Was hoping for the midweek price reduction which was advertised,but not put off from another visit. Well done to the camp staff .
Up there with the average Club site
All you would expect from a club site ie clean, all facilities work, quiet etc. The staff were very friendly and perhaps above average. The only negative observation that I would make was that the male toilet cubicles got busy in the morning and probably could have done with an additional one. That said, they were kept in an immaculate condition.
The Brown Cow pub is very convenient as it is situated adjacent to the site gates. The prices are reasonable.
Although we have been to this site previously we hadn't previously noticed that the off road cycle path located down Woodhill road goes 2 ways. One way goes to Bury town centre whilst the other goes to the Toby Inn at Greenmount. From here (Toby Inn) you can cycle to Ramsbottom although this stretch is mixed on / off road.
Thanks for a nice break
Very Impressed
This was our first visit to a Club site since becoming members and we were very impressed by what we experienced at the Burrs. The welcome was friendly, the facilities were spotlessly clean, and the site was very well maintained.
The location is excellent and was very central for us visiting friends in Bury and attending a wedding in Rochdale. I would happily recommend the Burrs to anyone and would also highly recommend a visit to the Brown Cow Pub next to the entrance. The food and drinks were great and they have a huge childrens' play area outside.
Good but not cheap.
Our second visit to Burrs did not disappoint - but there again it was Bury we really wanted to visit and altho £76.50 for three nights is not cheap it was convenient and we will no doubt be back - off peak!
Just as good as last time !
Visited this site for the second time . Our main choice for location was due to visiting relatives in Manchester . Site was immaculate, views beautiful (especially when the steam train went by!).Burrs park itself is well worth a walk around . We spent an afternoon at the Granada studios tour which we'd highly recommend and we also recommend the food and welcome at the Garsdale Pub just outside the entrance to the park .A visit to Bury market is also a must! Well done Burrs Country Park ,thanks for a great holiday!
Fabulous
We have visited this site before as guests but this was the first trip in our caravan. It seems funny when you tell people you're staying in Bury, but this site is a real gem. Spotless toilet/shower block, immaculate site. We were blessed with great weather which always helps. The country park is lovely & a couple of pubs nearby makes it near perfect. As Browknee said on an earlier review, lots of people cut through your spec, which is extremely rude in my opinion. That however is a member issue, not a club one.
Don't let this stop you going though. It's the best club site we've visited. First Class.
Another Great Stay
Just had a 3 night lovely stay at Burrs. Been here more times than we can remember. The Wardens are lovely & friendly & keep a well kept site. The pitches are a good size & the toilets & showers are immaculate. The country park is great for dog walking & also has an assault/play area for the kids plus plenty of space for ball games. There are 2 pubs close by-one being at the site gates- both doing good food. The steam train goes by at the back of the site which you can get from in town. Town is easily walkable from the site. Now with all these pros comes one negative for this weekend, people walking through your pitch as a short cut to theirs to save on a few extra yards walk. This has to be our biggest pet hate of caravaning. On our first night one family thought it was ok to walk past while we were eating & virtually brush the back of our chairs. We NEVER cut through anybodys pitch in our mind its just rude. We know there is no set rule but a bit of common courtesy doesn't go amiss. All in all though both our friends & ourselves had a lovely weekend.
A nice clean and quiet site
Excellent clean facilities and nice staff. The steam trains run adjacent to the site. Excellent
another enjoyable stay
Stayed 22-27 July
Have been to the site previously and always enjoyed the clean spacious pitches,immaculate toilet block and friendly wardens , we took our5 yr old grandaughter with the main attraction being a trip on a steam train. She really enjoyed the treasure hunt and receiving a badge plus completing activities in her tourer explorer book for which she received a snap and bracelet. We spent a lovely afternoon in the park hunting for leaves and flowers ,this compensated for lack of play area.the staff were so friendly to her helping with the clues on her treasure hunt. She has decided that she wants to go back next year to have another trip on the train.
