Cyclists Heaven

After reading the reviews we decided to take a more secluded pitch in the higher area to the left of reception, as the lower pitch area were very busy. The wildlife was lovely with squirrels, birds and rabbits everywhere. We went on the cycle route, and I have to say it was lovely, although beware of the dark tunnel that runs for 180m at the side of the canal. The Aqueduct was amazing, it was fantastic to walk over it with barges coming towards you. Langollen is lovely with lots of lovely shops and tasty treats to buy. Our motorhome pitch was great, spacious with no problems with rabbit poo or holes as mentioned in an earlier review.

Fantastic , friendly , fun and fabulous

Our 1st time at this site and cannot recommend it highly enough. We stayed 7 nights in Primrose Dell on a spacious gravel pitch. On arrival the friendly wardens greeted the kids and gave them a Tourer Explorer pack, sending them off on a treasure hunt while we set up the caravan. The kids loved it and came back with stickers and badges for their effort. The wardens told the kids that if they completed 12 activities from the pack they could come back to claim a slap band each. That kept them busy for 2 days! The site is so peaceful and relaxing, with the rabbits and squirrels a delight to watch. There are some beautiful woodland walks on and around the site and a good walk up to Chirk Castle direct from the site. The toilet block is spotlessly clean and hot water is plentiful. We never had to wait for a shower any time in the 7 days. Yes, the shower cubicles are a little smaller but they are perfectly adequate. One of the highlights of the week was the playday which was organised and run by the wardens. A totally free event, whereby the wardens led a nature hunt in the woods, crazy golf, races, face painting and laid on hot dogs, cakes, biscuits and juice. The 4 wardens were fantastic with kids and adults alike and the afternoon was thoroughly enjoyed by all. All around the site, people say hello to each other and the wardens are particularly friendly and approachable always ready with a smile. My kids were sad to leave this morning and are already asking when they can return. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat in the countryside with abundant wildlife then this is the site for you. Can't wait to return later in the year

Very disappointed and concerned

I have to take into account that our stay was during the first week of the school summer holiday period. No complaint about children on the site, but it was understandably very busy. Along with other visitors I spoke to, we all agreed that the pitches were too small and one felt cramped. they need to reduce the total by about 20% in some areas and about 10% in areas where the pitches are a bit more generous. I know pitches mean money especially in high season, but I did not expect a club site to treat me like a sardine! Pitch 78 where we were located was very tight with adjoining pitches. Because it was very busy, I was advised that I should just take the caravan and pick a pitch. I prefer to walk around a large site first before selecting a pitch. The pitch I chose was not good. Beware of the rabbits!!!They are profuse and leave droppings everywhere and one cannot avoid picking up muck on one's foot-ware. I would seriously warn parents of young children not to let them go bare foot and If they fall over, wash their hands immediately if contaminated with rabbit droppings. Also, there are many, many little pot holes in the ground where the little darlings try and dig burrows on the pitches. This is a trip hazard and unsightly. Location wise the site is very good for visiting the local area. The silent policemen are sharp and could be more rounded to avoid a big bump. The electric connection needs to be turned to the right to engage it. I'd never seen this before in 8 years of caravanning. If I had been informed of this requirement it would have saved me a small trek to the office to enquire why there was no electricity when I plugged in the cable. Overall was the rabbit problem. I consider it a gross nuisance, a big health hazard and my advice is they need to cull the rabbits. They are not pets and have reached a large population. They are tantamount to vermin and spoil the site immensely. The management need to act on this during the close season. Enough said.

Disappointed

After staying at the site for the weekend. We were annoyed with the lack of privacy with people walking between the pitches. The amount of children racing bicycles around the site between the awning and car, one child fell off by the side of our awning when he could not take the corner at the speed he was riding. We will not be returning to the site

A return visit

Came to this site in 1997 and could see the changes since to the layout especially in the wooded area. Alot better pitches. A lovely base to walk from and very friendly wardens but facilities could do with an upgrade. I found the shower pressure very poor no matter what time of day. I normally shower late at night when nobody else does and bad pressure.  Wouldnt stop me visiting again.

Another relaxing break

This was our 7th visit to Lady Margarets @ Chirk. We love the site for its peace & quiet and lovely layout. There were 2 things that didn't spoil the holiday but left a sour taste for want of a better word. 1 - the wardens were the unfriendliest that have ever been there , they only spoke on booking in & booking out. No " good mornings " when they walked around the site as all wardens on all the CC sites do. 2- the pompous old git who pitched next to us in his foreign van. he had his awning opposite ours so it was on the wrong side of the pitch , we were sat out on our sunloungers relaxing & he told me to " go around the other side of my caravan to smoke as he didn't smoke and the wind was blowing it towards his awning ". I replied telling him if his awning was on the corret side it would not be an issue & the fact that I was outside I would smoke on my own pitch if I wanted to. Apart from that we had another wonderful stay & will be going back for many years to come.

First time in Chirk

Another good CC site handy for the town centre ( 20 mins ) . Plenty of dog walks and 2 dog friendly pubs to choose from . The walk over the aquaduct is spectacular with footpaths going for miles . Play area is small so kids might struggle for things to do . Train station is 10 mins walk away with Chester one way and Qswestry the other . All in all a pleasant stay .

excellent

We stayed on this site in one of the dells for four days with our dog. It is a lovely site and always has the most friendly and helpful wardens. We don't use the showers or washing up facilities as we have a fully fitted caravan, but the site itself is very tidy and beautifully kept. We always enjoy our stay here. However the approach road to the site is quite narrow and if people arrive before the stated access time of 12 o'clock they may have to reverse as it is difficult for two caravans to pass.
