  • Spacious family site under 10 minutes' drive from Chester
  • 15 minutes' drive from Cheshire Oaks and Chester Zoo
  • Campfires and barbecues allowed on pitches
Take a swift exit from the end of the M56 and pitch up within minutes: how’s that for easy access? And with the M53 and A55 nearby as well, Oakwood Farm Touring Park is spectacularly well located for travel from Liverpool, Manchester and north Wales. A few miles from the fably handsome city of Chester, this site has loads of things to do nearby: a 15-minute drive will bring you to the zoo, the racecourse or a designer shopping spree. Head north a little and on a warm day (or less warm if you’re feeling brave) you can be dipping your toes in the sea at the beaches on the Wirral, half an hour’s drive away. You’re welcome to light a barbecue to cook your dinner; a supermarket 10 minutes away if you need to stock up on sausages. If you’d like to go out, a couple of pubs are a mile or so away and a wide range of eats are available in central Chester.

PAm G. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: This was a lovely site, immaculately maintained. There was water on each pitch and the showers and toilets had been newly renovated and spotlessly clean. There was even a cafe selling breakfasts and snacks. There was a bus stop outside the site into Chester, though the service was infrequent, but the park and ride was a 10 minute drive away. There was also a lovely restaurant less than a mile away.

Disliked: Take some ear plugs for overnight if you're bothered by road noise

From the manager: Dear Guest,

Thank you for your review, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay.
We can only apologise for the road noise but due to the close proximity to Chester and the motorway links to Manchester/Liverpool/North Wales we do experience traffic noise.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: The motorhome pitches were of adequate size and had all the services we needed. The showers were very good, along with the toilets and are a credit to the site team - Well Done.
Access was easy, even though we were late but sufficient instruction had been given to us.

Disliked: The Grey Water discharge point could do with looking into as it was very tight for our motorhome, and I couldn't see where the water was discharging to.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Guest,

Thank you for your kind review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us once again.
Thank you for your feedback, the grey water disposal point is something that Peter (the owner) is looking into, which we hope will be improved soon.
We hope you will visit us again.

Ann A. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Well looked after. Toilets and showers good. Very clean. Polite and helpful reception. Easy access.

Disliked: We booked an extra night on the 14th March. We had already paid the original bill but I was not asked to pay the extra night at the time of booking. I then received an abrupt email asking me to pay immediately as this was due on the 8th March, before we had decided to stay the extra night. I was quite offended by the tone of the email and as Pitch Up had not asked me to pay I assumed I would pay on arrival. The receptionist apologised but said these were automated emails. This is not acceptable under these circumstances.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Ann,

We are pleased you enjoyed your stay here at Oakwood Farm and it was lovely to meet you both.
I can only apologise once again for the email upsetting you. Like my colleague and myself said, the emails are automatically sent. The last thing we want to do is to offend anyone. We will certainly look into changing the wording in the automated emails that are sent out.
We wish you are a safe onward journey.

Kind Regards

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Easy Well Organised friendly welcome..Did not use all the onsite facilities but they looked fine. Will come back.

Disliked: I always have an issue with 11 am departures, not just campsites but hotels also. This time of year, early forced depatures are pointless and unwelcoming!

Local attractions

Oakwood Farm's location puts it within easy reach not only of major cities but also lots of family-friendly attractions. A perennial favourite is Chester Zoo, 10 minutes' drive away – the 125-acre park is home to more than 15,000 animals, many of them exotic and endangered species, so there's plenty to keep you entertained for a full day. For animal life of the marine variety, head to the Blue Planet Aquarium, four miles away, where you can walk through a tunnel of sharks or sign up to don a wetsuit and get in the tank (advance booking required). Walking around the city of Chester, four miles away, makes a most agreeable day out too: stroll on the city's ancient walls, visit the cathedral's falconry exhibit, take a boat trip on the River Dee and admire the famed black and white buildings in Chester Rows. Half an hour's drive and you're on the Wirral and its beaches: go for Red Rocks beach for birdwatching or head to the North Wirral Coastal Park to climb among the sand dunes. Also on the Wirral is Port Sunlight, a village built for local factory workers in the late 19th century: there's lots to see here including a park, museum, art gallery and heritage tours.
