Excellent Organisation

Only stayed 2 nights this trip but really like this site. Excellent Covid organisation, information, markings and cleaning routines. Wardens very clear re pitching and not spreading onto clearance areas, but also very polite and friendly.

Lovely weekend Break

I had read the reviews before we arrived and notice a lot of people had mentioned road noise.well all I can say is what a load of rubbish I didn’t hear a thing so take no notice of those comments!! We went here with our grandson and even though the children’s park was closed he made friends and loved saying hello to all the dogs that passed. We found the site busy but it was very well spaced out we was on pitch 51. The site was very clean and tidy and the toilets and shower blocks are spotless and cleaned and regular intervals and then closed for 2 hours each day for a deep clean between 10-12 but a toilet around the other side was open if needed. The staff were lovely and friendly and was really helpful. It’s a short 5 minute walk along the road to the designer outlet And The Blue Planet. And a ten minute drive to Chester zoo. Had a lovely weekend and we will be definitely returning.

Could do better

The main plus point the wardens are so switched on, excellent on arrival at site, huge well done. From then on downhill and no fault of the wardens. The traffic noise is obtrusive to say the least. Biggest minus points, the relative closeness of all the pitches it just seems you are on top of the next pitch, my awning was within a metre of the car parked on the next pitch. Yes centres maybe six metres but in these times too close. Perhaps spoilt as we stopped at Englethwaite Hall on way south, pitch spacing so much better. Come on club, space out before we have a local infection source and we lockdown again. Maximising profit by the spacing is the club priority not our safety in these troubling times.

Disappointed

This site is near a very noisy motorway. The entrance to the site is too narrow so you have to wait behind vehicles checking in. Fine for a one night stay over but would avoid for a holiday. On the positive side, the staff are very friendly.

site wardens

We have just had 2 weeks here at Chester Fairoaks and we have had a great time but I would just like to say the wardens deserve a big pay rise the amount of work they did checking people in and cleaning all the facilities at all times of the day plus general duties they were great the only problem I saw was the usual ? people walking through other peoples pitches it,s bad enough in normal times but at present it just stupidity .Keep safe everybody

Absolutely Spotless

This was our first time out after the Coronavirus pandemic. Following lockdown, the site had been reopened just three days earlier. We were concerned about using the showers and toilets however on our arrival we were given information about the strict cleaning regime and about how the use of the facilities was regulated. All we can say is very well done to the caravan club and to the wardens. The facilities, and in fact all of the site, was absolutely spotless. Thank you!

Great for shoppers but otherwise very disappointing

If you want easy access to Cheshire Oaks shopping great, other than that dont bother. The canal walk is a good 45 min minimum walk away along a busy road with no footpath, not safe for dogs & definitely not next to the site. Both nearby pubs mentioned are closed. Nearest pub is the Harvester & is what it is. Dog walk on site is nothing special either. On the plus side staff are lovely and very friendly. Facilities what you'd expect.

Great Site, Great Location

The first thing to note is that access is straightforward from a minor road. The pitches are spacious and generally seemed level with at least two service points. The facilities are modern, pleasantly warm and kept clean. All the wardens I spoke with were very pleasant , helpful and happy to chat. Considering the amount of rain that we've had they did an excellent job of maintaining the site. The site is well located for Chester, Liverpool and even Manchester. An excellent bus service is available just 10 minutes from the site and Sainbury's, Asda and Aldi are all less than two miles away. I had a great time here and achieved far more than I expected given the awful weather. I would happily return here, hopefully when the sun has decided to shine.

A Very Acceptable Site

All in all we had an enjoyable stay. The staff are friendly and helpful. The pitches are sizeable with no hint of being overlooked by ones neighbours. Shower block is modern and very clean. Noise from the nearby motorways cannot be ignored when you are out in the open, but when you are indoors it fades away. We were unlucky in that the nearest pub, 'The Rake', was closed for refurbishment. For the record it re-opens in September this year. If you like shopping then you will like the nearby retail parks. They are massive! There is walking to be had along the canal, but there is a bit of a slog along roads with no pavements to get there. Not a classic stay but nothing really to complain about either.

First time at this location not the last

First thing I can say is this is a great winter site and I can’t see any amount of rain stopping you from pulling off your very large (car, caravan and large awning wide) pitch. There are good level tarmac roads accessing all the pitches. There is a very modern very large toilet block with ample showers with lovely hot water, lots of toilet cubicles, wash cubicles and hair dryers etc. All kept immaculate and clean with piped radio playing in background. All at a temperature you can quite easily cope with in the middle of the coldest night. There are a number of service points that include fresh water, waste water emptying points, dustbins and Elsan points (the cleanest and most pleasant to use I have ever come across). There is a small dog pound for doggy business and it is fully secure so you can let your pet off the lead. I was concerned that we would be troubled by motorway noise however I have not noticed any unless I actually deliberately listen for it whilst outside. Now the staff, on arrival we were greeted by a very pleasant young lady who booked us in, gave us the freedom to choose whatever vacant pitch we wanted and a fob to raise the barrier whenever we came back on site. All in all the staff were very helpful and had very nice personalities and although not needed we felt any problem they would go out of their way to sort it for us with a smile. Locally within ten minutes walk is a large M&S, KFC, Large Sainsbury’s and many more fast food outlets. I can fully recommend this site and give it the highest marks I can give up there with the best we have used. Paul n Olive
