We recently had two nights at Burrs Country Park enroute to Southport and were certainly pleasantly surprised. So close to major cities but very rural. The site was very spacious, the wardens great with high quality facilities. Having a good pub on the doorstep and the East Lancs steam railway on the site perimeter was a bonus. Maybe one day there could be a small station in country park? The country park although not as big as expected is good for walking with lots to look at. Not so good for cycling however although there are routes further afield. Recommended!
