  • Peaceful, well-maintained and family-run park in a central setting
  • Safe direct access link to the Shropshire Union Canal for strolls
  • Fish at three fishing lakes for a fee; bar/bistro two minutes' stroll
Cheshire countryside, anyone? In a setting that's quite rightly been pointed out as central to pretty much anywhere? Easily sorted when pitching up at Sunny Side Touring Park. Set in green countryside with loads of open space, Sunny Side is central indeed: it's about 20 minutes by car to the Welsh border from here, 45 minutes to Wrexham, 50 to Shrewsbury and Chester, an hour to Alton Towers, and an hour and 15 minutes to both Liverpool and Manchester. And if you're after a peaceful base where you don't want to wander far at all? Also easily sorted, as Sunny Side's Nantwich setting is metres from the Shropshire Union Canal for spectacularly scenic strolls or bike rides along the water. There's also a bar/bistro a couple minutes' stroll away. On site, there are three fishing lakes where guests can fish for an extra cost. They stock up to 40-pound carp and catfish. Sunny Side is family run, and allows only a handful of pitches on site to keep its quiet and relaxed vibe. Barbecues and campfires are both allowed: sort supplies a couple of miles away in the friendly little village of Audlem, where there are restaurants and pubs as well as shops. A handy utilities room on site gives guests access to a washing machine, washing-up sinks, a microwave and a kettle.

Powered grass caravan site

Liked: As soon as we arrived the lovely receptionist was very helpful, we even got shown where our pitch was. All the staff around were really polite and lovely, even the young lads were great. Very quiet and peaceful stay. Lovely walk down the canal to the pub The Shroppie Fly, reasonably priced. Showers and toilet blocks were very nice and clean throughout our stay.

Disliked: We couldn’t see anything in the cafe/lunch box for anything suitable for Vegans.

Powered grass and gravel caravan site (super)

Liked: Big pitch, just across from the showers/toilets, which was great considering the torrential rain! Quite a small toilet/ shower block considering the size of the site, but all clean and nicely decorated.
Our 2nd stay, really enjoyed it, very friendly greeting on arrival.
Well set out pitches, mainly level, nicely landscaped grounds. Friendly staff in The Staggerinn, bingo was on Saturday, good selection of drinks, bar is child and dog friendly. Site is about a half hour walk along the canal (look out for bats, swans and lots and lots of frogs on the canal bank of an evening)to Audlem - 3 pubs, tapas bar, small co,-op.
We'll definitely be going back.

Disliked: Just the great British weather! Thunder and lightning went on for ages, rain lashed down all night and most of the day!

Local attractions

The canal and a public footpath alongside are steps from the site. From Nantwich, stroll the couple of miles along the level canal towpath for views over town and the Cheshire countryside, passing the Chester Road viaduct and many moored and cruising narrowboats (to get truly envious, lurk around the marina at Basin End). A couple of pubs at Audlem overlook the canal if/when you require a pitstop. To dive into all things canal and have a natter on the same with knowledgeable types, drop into the Nantwich Canal Centre within 10 minutes' drive. You could also have mightily peaceful potters around the town's shops and wine bars, or the market that runs most days. The leisure centre has an outdoor saltwater pool for dips. Another market town is at Whitchurch, 20 minutes' drive away and two miles from the Welsh border. It's well worth a wander to see its 100+ listed buildings, and to bag foodie supplies from the speciality shops in town: cheese and pork pies are the top picks to hunt down here. From Whitchurch, you can take the train to Manchester, reachable in an hour to the north, or Shrewsbury, half an hour south.
