Lovely Site

We stayed here for the first time at New Year & thoroughly enjoyed it. Wardens were lovely & friendly & organised a little get together on NY Eve in the reception. Although the toilet block is dated it was spotlessly clean. The village of Chirk is a 15min walk with a couple of pubs (both dog friendly) a few cafes & take away outlets & a good well stocked Spar shop. The walks along the canal were nice especially crossing Chirk Aquaduct. If you walk the aquaduct way about 2miles along the canal path you come to a lovely pub called the Poachers Pocket which in the summer will be nice to sit outside & watch the boats go by. In previous reviews there has been the mention of the noise from the nearby factory, we can honestly say don't let it put you off. We stayed for 3 nights & only heard it from the final night which we think was due to change of wind direction & didn't seem that bad. Well put it this way, we are returning again in June.

Good base for exploring the area

Lovely location, with a mix of pitches ( some grass and some hard standing ) to suit most families, some in shady tree-lined areas, whilst others are in the open. Facilities are a little dated but very clean. Wardens are always helpful and have suggestions of places to visit. Ideal centre for exploring Chester, wrexham, Llangollen and the surrounding countryside. Plenty of walking opportunities in the vicinity, with or without dogs.

Great Site, Great Location

My wife an I visited this site 8.9.10 December with the aim of cycling along the canal path to Llangollen. Having never visited this site before was not to sure of what o expect. Well, warden was extremely helpful and was more than happy to assist us with all our queries. Site itself is set in beautiful woods with wildlife in the shape of rabbits and squirrels everywhere. Like all sites visited to date, the shower block was Clean and Warm which made both my wife and I extremely happy. Would I recommend this site, YES.

December visit

We are regular visitors but never so late in the season. But there was a gap in the demand for childminding our grandchildren so we gave it a go and travelled to Chirk on a very frosty day. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and we were cosy in our small motorhome and I slept like a log. The fir trees had turned a beautiful golden colour but it was perhaps a mistake to park in Bluebell Dell this time as the trees were shedding needles and we are still finding them now we are home! We enjoyed our walks with the dogs and visits to nearby towns. Sainsburys Wrexham was still the best place to top up our diesel. A lovely break where we relaxed and recharged our batteries.

Old fogies on tour

We visited this site at the end of November when it was very cold but otherwise fine weather, with very clear night skies so lots of stars. The site was quiet, all be it with a little background noise from the local factory, but staff were busy keeping it clean, making sure taps were not frozen etc. There were plenty of animals and birds about. It was very nice to have lashings of hot water, and a well heated shower block. The walks allong the canal path were very enjoyable, with pubs offering good food in both directions. We were only there for a few days to check it out, but will definitely return. One point for the staff to consider might be that closing the toilets between 10.30 and 12.00 with no alternative arrangements may catch some people out as it were (no not us!!!).

A lovely site

We stayed here in mid November, it's a very peaceful site with very helpful wardens and clean facilities. We had fun siting our van to use the satellite dome but managed to find a spot free of the trees. We enjoyed visiting Chirk Castle - if you're fairly mobile you can use the footpaths uphill, otherwise there's a large carpark. Check opening times in the winter as they only seem to open at weekends then. The village has a range of small shops and facilities, including a very nice cafe near the aqueduct and tunnel. We took a walk along the canal to the Pontcysyllte aqueduct, a round trip of about 7-8 miles and we had lunch at the pub in Trevor. We were really lucky to be offered a ride on a canal boat, the section over the aqueduct was amazing with a sheer drop. If you are able to drive out for the day this is an ideal campsite for a longer stay.

Great value at this time of year

What a lovely site. As you would expect, all the usual amenities and the usual high standards of staffing. For us it was discovering an area that we did not know at all. Lady Margarets Park and Chirk are delightful. The castle is a good National Trust visit, we visited on a cold and misty late afternoon which really added to the atmosphere. The Aquaduct and Viaduct are great reminders of the work of Thomas Telford. We walked through the tunnel which is quite an experience in the dark without a torch!! For quiet relaxation the site is great, except that you will have to clean off the pine needles which seem to get everywhere! The site and the area is a great place to visit. Book up and enjoy!

Relaxing park

We found this site to be quiet, only noise being owls hooting at night and once we heard the train go by- we never heard the Kronospan place. We chose a pitch directly between the first water and waste points and the shower blocks and were not disturbed at all. The dog quite enjoyed watching the rabbits on his walks and there were plenty of dog waste bins as well as a lovely designated dog walking path. Plenty of shops lose by and things to do but was equally attractive as aplace to just stop and relax while the in the caravan to get away from it all. Looking forward to returning.

One of our favourites ...

Just love this site. Lovely setting, short stroll into Chirk or to railway station. Just docked some points for noise from factory if the wind in the wrong direction, and the facilities desperately need up dating. Great dog walk and ball playing potential on the rally field. Walks in all directions, did a lovely loop along the canal towards Llangollen and back along the Offas Dike path. Paid multiple trips to The Hand in Chirk - great food and dogs allowed in their coffee lounge and also in the bar where they will happily lay a table for you if you want something to eat there.
