Blakemere Touring Caravan Park

Liked Nice well kept site with a lot to visit and do nearby. Toilets and showers very clean. Friendly staff.

A pint of Promises in the Wee Howff pub nearby was a really nice beer.
Soft play area nearby was excellent for my grandson.

Disliked Penalised for being classed as a continental motorhome. Not sure what the issue is with this as to me, its just a habitation door and should not matter which way you face. First time I've encountered such a strange instruction. Waste of time upgrading to gold as grey water hose did not reach due to this.

Wifi extremely poor.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback, we are glad you enjoyed your time at Blakemere.

To address your concerns as being “Penalised” for being classed as a continental – We are guided by our site licence conditions, fire and privacy regulations that are issued by Cheshire West & Chester Council.

Rules for pitching continental caravans/motorhomes on pitches typically involve spacing to prevent fire hazards, such as the six-meter rule for adjacent units, and adhering to site-specific regulations for pitch layout, occupancy and privacy. Additionally, there are general rules regarding the caravan/motorhome’s physical condition, and its ability to be moved off pitch in case of an emergency.

In fact, some sites don’t even permit Continental units due to their individual site licence and pitching policies.

We can assure you that you were certainly not “punished” for having a Continental unit and we try our best to accommodate all units on site.

As you had a continental motorhome, all we asked, when you checked in, is that you either reverse onto the opposite side of the pitch OR drive in on the side we specify as per our pitch policy. Thus, ensuring we meet our licensing and privacy conditions.

Just for clarification, our Gold fully serviced pitches are all hardstanding with EHU, TV aerial point, freshwater tap and grey waste disposal grid. As you could not use the grey waste drainage, we do have Silver pitches which are hardstanding with EHU in our Paddock area and then our Motorhome service point is located outside our amenities block.

Unfortunately, we cannot always guarantee Wi-Fi connection, it can sometimes be hit and miss due to a lot of factors, not always down to our Wi-Fi, as we were informed that EE and Vodaphone had issues in the area at the time.

We hope that the above gives some explanation as to why we ask our guests to pitch a certain way and do hope that you will stay with us again.

Liked We only stayed for 1 night to try out our recently purchased campervan, the whole site is very clean with good size pitches, the staff are very welcoming, friendly and helpful, there is a small shop on site and the amenities are very clean,
Food and drink available at Blakemere village next door which is only a few minutes walk through one of the gates

Disliked We found nothing to dislike

Liked The gold touring pitch was excellent, the amenities on the site could only be described as spotless and warm, Reception was exceptionally welcoming and the maintenance team obviously took pride in their site. the whole experience was added to by the adjacent Blakemere village where retail entertainment alongside food and drink was in abundance. All in all a site that we extended our stay at simply to have a Sunday lunch in the Village Restaurant and one will definitely be going back to.

Disliked The only things that we would class as cons and not really dislikes were that the off lead dog area could have been somewhat larger especially as room was in abundance to do this, the current size was adequate but when two or more dogs were using it at one time along with owners it was a little restrictive.
The only other thing that seemed to be ignored by some (the absolute minority) was the concept of quiet time from 10pm onwards as on our first night this was not adhered to by one group of visitors until circa 1am.

From the manager: Thank you for the feedback. We are sorry you felt the dog enclosure was a little small, we will pass this onto the owners at the next meeting. We do have an emergency phone number that is on the reception door and over at the amenities block that you can call our wardens on 24 hours a day for any issues that may arise, including any noise related problems after 10pm so we can rectify the situation at the time for all our guests staying on site. We are glad you had a brilliant stay, despite the first night, and we look forward to welcomimg you back again in the near future.

Liked Everything, the amenities were extremely good, the disabled bathroom was exalent, good pitch size, the staff were all very helpful and friendly & the site was spotless. Blakemere site was right next to Blakemere village, with artisan shops, & places to eat & drink. It was very easy to find, just off a main road
