Always a lovely site, but after recent work there are now more hardstanding pitches and updated facilities. One of our favourites

Booked a new year trip for 5 nights. There is still work going on but main areas complete. Our standard pitch was generous and the site will have a lovely feel come the spring when everything settles down and the trees come into leaf. At night there were tawny owls calling which was a delight. The new facilities are faultless with copious hot water for showers and no push buttons! The underfloor heating makes for a pleasant environment and the local photography on the walls should be adopted on other sites together with the divided blocks which means they are always partially open even during cleaning. We really appreciated the new dog and bike wash after our muddy rides. There is much to explore in the area as well as the castle on the doorstep. Whilst small, Chirk offers all you need- a fantastic butcher, baker and greengrocer. The local fish and chips were also excellent. There was a warm welcome from the wardens and New Year drinks and nibbles were a nice gesture. Sadly you can’t organise the weather which means we will just have to come back again! This site is gem.

Been coming here for years as its our local site. The park has had a massive refurb and is now much better than it was and it was great before. New facilities block is fantastic, all bright new and sparkling with twin access so it's always open. New serviced pitches are a great improvement and there's also a few premium pitches that have a bbq and picnic area and table on them, lots of trees have been trimmed back and felled so you get lots more sun on more pitches and the park feels much more open. The new kids play area looks bright and good fun for the young ones. There is also a new dog and bike wash facility with a bike servicing station by the block. The park is in a great location and has good selection of takeaways and a Co-op, Spar shops and a great Indian restaurant nearby, the site also has caravan storage on site. There are some great walks along the canal, into Chirk and up to the Chirk castle. Site entrance has been resurfaced a while ago and is a massive improvement. Wardens at time of writing this are fantastic.

Refurbishment is planned and some areas are overdue. The water pressure in the showers is poor and the condition of the hard standings is in need of renewal. That having been said, the site is kept clean and tidy and the is location is ideal for exploring the borders of Wales and England. Chirk Castle is well worth a visit and although up hill is within walking distance.

Nice site, lovely grounds. Good location, easy walk into Chirk with plenty of places to eat/drink. Approx 1.5 miles to Chirk castle but off road along a nice pathway. Shower block could do with a refurb but clean.

Beautiful small site on English/Welsh border with lots of historical attractions in the vicinity. There are lots of nice walks and cycling in the area.The village of Chirk is under a mile from the site, and there are a number of small providers including cafes, restaurants, takeaways, green grocers, a bakery (yummy choice of cakes) and 2 grocery stores a Spar, and a Coop. Though the Coop is a little further out of the main shopping area. The site staff were friendly helpful, and the facilities well kept.

This is a sheltered and private site close to Chirk Castle and the village. It makes a great place for visiting the local area both sides of the Welsh/English border with much to see and do. The site has all the usual Caravan Club facilities which were open in a Covid-19 secure way at the time of the review. Friendly and welcoming staff with one of the most useful leaflets explaining local information made for a pleasant and happy holiday.
