This popular site is well placed for local motorways as well as Chester, Liverpool and Wrexham. It is close by two large retail outlets, Cheshire Oaks and The Colosseum and three eat-for-less pubs, a Harvester, a Hungry Horse and the Old Hall Farm. They are all within easy walking distance from the site by turning right out of the main gate. Rake Lane is, however, a busy thoroughfare and there is no footpath. There is a little bit of grass verge for part of the way but it soon peters out. One of the large retail (so called Designer-) outlets is also easily walked to and a large Sainsbury's supermarket and petrol station is close by. Unleaded is reasonably priced there but when we visited diesel carried a 7p per litre premium. You will get some aircraft as well as traffic including motorway noise but that is drowned out in the toilet block by loud piped radio pop music. The site is pleasant with generous pitches, the vast majority being hard standings, and the toilet block is modern. Our daughter (25) wasn't too pleased with the showers because there was ample variation of cold setting but warm was at the very end of the adjustment. I, on the other hand was delighted the shower head was high enough for me to get under and the feed pipes were shielded so avoiding inadvertently touching very hot or cold pipes. For motorcaravanners there is an easy drive-over grill for grey water dumping and two manhole covers for black water. Although the site is level there was some evidence of levelling blocks being required for some motorhomes on some pitches. The site is kept immaculately and when we were there green fingered expertise was well in evidence. It looked beautiful. We were warmly welcomed by one of the wardens and given a nice pack of leaflets to get us going. The information booth is kept tidily and there are many more useful leaflets there. We were told this is a popular site so fees are ratcheted up during so called high season to reflect that. One week out of high season for three adults cost us £248.50. In high season it would see that rise to £308. If you intend to take your motorhome to the nearest park-and-ride facility at Chester Zoo then be warned that although there are parking bays for motorhomes before the height barrier they are not much bigger than a standard sized car parking space so any van over say 6m will stick out into the road where all cars enter and leave the site. Enjoy your stay here.
