  • A 10-minute drive from Alton Towers and Uttoxeter Racecourse
  • Large family-friendly bar and restaurant with events and takeaways
  • Spacious beer garden with play area and large climbing frame
Up for theme park thrills? New Broom Camping and Caravan Site is 10 minutes' drive away from Alton Towers – and has a comfy number of amenities to have you sorted on site too. Set in two peaceful acres with flat grass pitches, the park has a traditional pub (which is both large and family-friendly) with a family restaurant. There's also a big beer garden with a play area. And it's all in the small Staffordshire village of Checkley, a short drive away from Uttoxeter Racecourse and The Potteries as well as Alton Towers. The pub serves decently priced drinks and meals including carvery, cooked breakfasts and pizza (pizza is available for takeaway too). It's got a pool table for evenings of friendly competition, and hosts regular events such as rock nights, tribute nights and darts nights. New Broom also has a toilet/shower facility that guests can use free of charge, 24 hours a day.

What customers say

This is a friendly, well-maintained campsite with clean facilities and excellent food at the on-site pub. Pitches are generally spacious and level, and the staff are consistently praised for being welcoming and helpful. While some guests mention road noise, earplugs are provided. It's considered a great base for visiting Alton Towers. Manager replies indicate issues such as toilet cleaning and dog mess are actively addressed.

Ben A.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Warm welcome, organised and quick check in, showers and toilets were very clean and warm no matter what time of day. The pub is a ‘proper’ pub, where people were laughing and joking, the log burner was roaring and the drinks were flowing, I didn’t sample the food but it looked good and the menu was reasonably priced, they even put the boxing on for us which was kind. There’s a kids play area out the back which my youngest enjoyed. The pitch itself was level with easy access to electricity. There’s a fresh milk and milkshake vending machine a 1 minute walk away which the kids loved too.

Disliked Nothing at all.

Gabrielle r.

Non-electric grass campervan or tent pitch

Liked Nice little setting with locked gate area. Staff were quick to assist on arrival to give us details. All Staff members working in the new broom pub/ restaurant were very kind and helpful nothing was too much trouble ☺️. A lovely little park area for little ones to play whilst you relax after setting up. Food was amazing too!

Great facilities on site to use, clean and well stocked.

Stayed here before a visit to Alton towers which is only 20 mins away. Highly recommend.

Disliked It can be a little noisy throughout the night due to being on the side of a busy road ( however staff did provide us with ear plugs)

Recommend to friends Visit again

Very clean and friendly. Easy going and helpful.
