  • Dog-friendly shepherd’s hut on a farm 10 minutes’ drive from Knutsford
  • Jodrell Bank UNESCO site 15 minutes’ drive and Chester Zoo 45 minutes
  • Well-equipped kitchen and woodburner; pubs and a shop 15 minutes’ walk
Found on a Cheshire sheep farm 10 minutes’ drive from the buzzy little town of Knutsford, Greenfields Campsite is a top choice for anyone wanting to combine a cosy holiday in a wooden shepherd’s hut with views over the surrounding farmland. Prettily done up with a rural theme, the hut has a well-equipped kitchen (all the basics and more are there), bunk beds for sleeping and a bathroom with shower. Outside there’s covered decking for chilling, watching the sheep (and lambs in spring) in neighbouring fields and admiring the sunset on clear days. The village of Lower Peover (two minutes’ drive/15 minutes’ walk) has a handy shop and two pubs serving excellent food and beers. You can also source picnic treats from the handy village shop in Goostrey (10 minutes). Knutsford is the spot for nosing around trendy boutiques, and it’s got more than its fair share of pubs and cafés if you fancy a night out. Dogs are permitted – in fact, they get their own welcome pack of treats – while kids get complimentary marshmallows to roast over the campfire (logs and firelighters are available to buy on site).

Chantelle W.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked What a lovely campsite came here to camp for the first time with my little girl, lovely quiet site at night,toilet, shower and wash area had everything we needed everything clean and tidy, loved how the field isn’t packed with tents and everyone has their own little pitch, owners can’t do enough for you so welcoming marshmallows on arrival and then later bringing round the wood to purchase for the camp fire looking round that evening was lovely to see everyone with their fires going. Lovely touch seeing the sheep in one field and the cows in the other and then to top it off we could see the planes flying over that had taken off from Manchester airport. We will be returning thank you for a great stay.

Disliked Nothing

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked My boyfriend and I absolutely loved staying at this site! We were there over Creamfields weekend and felt incredibly well looked after. Andy, the owner, was a fantastic host, friendly, attentive, and clearly takes great pride in the place. The site itself is spotless, with excellent facilities and a great shower. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Peaceful. Good facilities, clean shower and toilet.

Disliked Pitches are not 10 x 10.
Fire puts ate spaced.5 metres apart.
Luckily I was pitched next time my sister. But if it was someone I didnt know, its too close for comfort.

Not all pitches were used and the owner said they book 15. The fire pits need to be more spread out.

Marija H.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Warm welcome, lovely site, clean facilities, marshmallows :)
Enough space between tents, not crowded.
Lots of children but space was big so enough space for everyone.

Disliked Quite noisy from the motorway. We stayed one night only so not an issue and I guess we would get used to it by second night.

Local attractions

Looking for something different to do? Journey up a hydraulic lift between the River Weaver and the Trent and Mersey Canal at the Anderton Boat Lift Visitor Centre (20 minutes’ drive), or get up close to the star-gazing Lovell Radio Telescope and enjoy 4D films on the universe in the planetarium at Jodrell Bank Centre for Engagement (15 minutes). A 40-minute drive takes you to the walled city of Chester, where you can beat the bookies at a race meeting, explore the Gothic-era cathedral and discover The Rows, half-timbered buildings dating from Tudor times. You might also like to treat the offspring to a day at the zoo (45 minutes), where there are rare rhinos and sun bears to see. You can all test your sense of direction on the orienteering courses in Marbury Country Park (20 minutes), or walk any accompanying dogs through the avenue of ancient lime trees. If you have the odd rainy day to contend with, resort to the indoor swimming pool at Brio Leisure Northwich Memorial Court (15 minutes).
