Very basic campsite with portaloo toilets and no other facilities. Very quiet in itself but very near to a busy road so lots of traffic noise. Ground is a bit dodgy for vans when wet. Right next to a pub and close to Chester Zoo.

Absolutely perfect campsite, not far from Cheshire Oaks which has buses to Liverpool and Chester. Dog friendly site. It's a basic site which is absolutely perfect

Nice and easy to book, called the mobile number and had a place for the evening while driving there. It says 6pm latest time, buy they're really Reasonable as long as you're respectful, quiet and not too late. We arrived at 9pm.

Lovely, pretty, and spacious campsite! 15 minutes walk from Cheshire Oaks Shopping Centre, and it’s many restaurants. We pitched under oak tree, then walked to Cheshire Oaks to eat at Miller & Carter Steakhouse, then watched a movie at the cinema. Porta Cabin loos were spotless. Lady who greeted us was very friendly, and helpful. There were quite a few tents pitched up, but it was very quiet. We had a peaceful nights sleep in our camper van. It was a stopover, as we were attending The VW Show at Tatton Park the next day. No EHU, but we don’t need it so not an issue for us. I think it is an adults only site, but not sure. We will definitely use it again when we fancy a days shopping, a meal and a movie night!
