Peace and quiet

We have just spent a lovely weekend here. It was very peaceful which was just what we wanted. The site was spotless and the wardens obviously work very hard to keep it this way. We received a warm welcome on arrival. The location is good for walking. The toilets need a bit of TLC but Iv seen worse. We have booked again to go later on in the year :-) We walked along the towpath on the shropshire union canal and ate at a pub called the poachers it was ok.

Heaven or Hell??!!

Stayed here for a weekend in mid-March, site was virtually full. Nice location but unlike most other campsites where you wake to the smell of rashers of bacon being prepared, here you poke your nose out into the fresh morning air......to be greeted by the adorable aroma of chocolate!! A well known chocolate drink manufacturer has a factory a few hundred yards away and luckily, for us, the wind was in our favour! Liked the site, everywhere clean and tidy and as others have stated, perhaps the facilities could do with modernisation, but they are clean and functional. A little noise from the factory didn't bother us at all. We ate out at the local Indian, had breakfast in the Tea Rooms and dinner at the Corn Mill in Llangollen. The latter two were superb.

March 2014

Just stayed for three nights at this site which allowed us to walk along the nearby towpath and Offas Dyke to Oswestry using the regular bus to return to the site. There is lots to see and do in the locale for a longer stay and the site was peaceful (you could sometimes hear the factory noise which we discovered was a chocolate factory which wasn't obtrusive producing quite pleasant smells as we walked past its gates back to the site).

Excellent location...Needs Investment!

We have been to Chirk on a number of occasions as we love the area and have good friends nearby. While it is difficult always to see full potential in winter, this site is showing signs of severe tiredness especially the shower block with cracked tiles, poor decor and a general feel of the 70s. Some of the service points also need attention. It would be great to see the site returned to its best as location is excellent.

Wonderful Winter Break

Have been going to this site for about 20 years and still enjoy all it has to offer. Just had 5 days in February and it was brilliant. Some of the low tier pitches could do with enlarging but most pitches are pretty good. We caravan right through winter and Chirk is the only site we have stayed on during last 6 months where the water is still hot in the shower blocks!!! Brilliant for dogs as the castle is opening up more winter walks for them and us!

winter break

This is one of our favourite sites as it has fabulous walks straight off the site. You are also within easy walking distance of the good local amenities we especially like the butchers in the village. The only down side is the size of the hard standing pitches on the lower section in the main area. As you will be aware we are informed to set up on a awing pitch as (looking head on) awning on the right hand side caravan to the white peg then car to the left hand side. The only problem is that due to the size of pitch the white peg is in the left hand corner and there is no room for the car. The pitches on the rest seem to be approx. 11 metres whilst the lower ones are only 9 metres, yet the price is the same. surely these pitches should be blue pegged and costed accordingly?. We still love this site but feel short changed on this point.

Amazing location

This is a well laid out site in an amazing location just a short walk from a beautiful country estate that has fantastic views. The site is also less than a mile from the Hands Hotel where we dropped in for a drink and has two restaurants, but we chose to eat across the road at the local Indian Restaurant. The site is well located to jump into the car and explore all around in the hills and valleys with spectacular views all around. We saw squirrels and rabbits running around the site which is very peaceful and off the beaten track. To be recommended.

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!
