A gem

What an oasis of calm where you can sit back and enjoy the countryside and wildlife. Lovely walks in the adjacent castle grounds and well placed for the station for Chester. It will be very different in the seasons to come. The wardens are so friendly and could not be more helpful.

Beautiful

Had three nights at this lovely site last week and we find it difficult to find any fault. The mentioned noise from the factory is out of the control of the CC and we soon got used to it. From booking in to leaving ,the staff on site were wonderfully friendly and efficient. The facilities are fabulously clean and warm, but I do think such a gem of a site deserves an overhaul to bring it up to the standard the site deserves. Looking a bit tired but immaculately clean. No fault of the wardens. We are motorhomes and found the local transport very good and used the train to visit Shrewsbury. Always good when van can stay put. Chirk Castle is well worth a visit and a very pleasant walk from the site, beautiful grounds. The town has everything you might need for a short triip, we always like to support the local economy when on our travels. The local people are extremely welcoming and friendly.

Handy base for explorers

Although not looking its best at this time of year, I imagine it will be picturesque during summer months. If you're a walker or National Trust member, there is plenty to explore. Chirk Castle is on the doorstep and you can wander the canal path with its aqueducts and tunnels. Llangollen is close by, as is Wrexham. Public transport, train or bus, is only a short walk away. No need for a car. On the food front, the Chirk Tandoori is recommended. We'll be back!

A little goes a long way

We enjoyed our stay here as we always do, however a little more effort would have made a big difference. The motorhome service area was really untidy, rubbish which had blown from trees (ie pine needles, cones, small twigs, larger pieces of branches etc) which over the previous 3 or 4 weeks had accumulated on the damp ground was getting trodden indoors each time we moved about to service our motorhome. A quick brush up every now and then would make a great difference. It spoils an otherwise well run site. Rayb

First weekend of 2015

Spent last weekend on this fabulous site. Perfect walking weather and dogs loved it too. The wardens were very welcoming also. We have been to this site several times and whilst we cannot fault the site and the surroundings, the highlight of our trips is the walk down to Chirk to the amazing butcher (McArdle) who has, apart from excellent meats, pies and lasagnes (which are great for easy dinners), the best Eccles cakes in the world! Well worth coming to Lady Margaret's for :)

First impressions

We have just returned from our first visit to this site and we were very impressed with it. The wardens who we understand were there on winter relief were doing an excellent job. The weather was extremely cold but the facility block was lovely and warm. Don't be put off by the note in the site book regarding the noise from the factory, we did not find it a problem, only a slight background hum. The setting is beautiful and should be even better in the spring. We will definitely be using this site again.

Second Visit - New Year at Lady Margaret's Park

We stayed here over the New Year for 3 nights. The wardens were very helpful and had organized a New Years Eve party, in a marquee near Reception. Although we couldn't go along, it was a lovely gesture. The site is nearby the Canal which provides good walks in either direction. We walked to Froncasyllte and crossed the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct to the Telford Pub. Ok for a pint but heavy air of cooking fat was a bit offputting. We stopped at the Aquaduct Inn too in Froncasyllte - a warm welcome for us and the dogs too. Overall, we would recommend Lady Margaret's Park.

Very enjoyable January stay

We stayed at the site at the start of the New Year. A very friendly and informative reception from Les & Maria. The site is surrounded by very high trees and even without foilage, it was difficult to get a satellite signal, but eventually, we found a pitch. It's a short walk down into Chirk village and also upto Chirk Castle. We also walked from site along the Llangollen Canal towards Llangollen. we stopped off for lunch at The Telford Inn, at Trevor which is adjacent to The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, the highest navigable aqueduct in the world!! The pub served up typical pub grub and service was good. Another 4 miles and we reached Llangollen. We caught the 1620 bus back that dropped us off at the Railway Station close to the site. It's a great location, the wardens keep the site to a high standard. Worth a visit
