Alistair P.

Power optional grass travel trailer campsite

Liked What a fantastic site.
Lovely well kept site with amazing facilities.
Childrens play area is very safe, secure dog walking area surrounded by a nice safe fence.
Kitchen cleaning facilities are brilliabt with lovely hit eater and thr toilets / showers are simply supurb (recently refurbished).
The staff are lovely (especially Malcolm, who was a right character).
Very family friendly and orientated.
The pub offers great food and like the site has amazing facilities and a great choice if beers. Charlie Basset offers fresh pizza and every pitch has running water and electric hook ups.
This site is now my first and only choice for camp stops.
Very competitive prices and lovely countryside to enjoy. Free WiFi was a bonus.
The family will not be disaponted.
Murtle (our Camper) and awning fitted a treat and there was plenty of space beteeen us and our neighbours.
Kevin, Matt and especially Malcom will offer you a warm welcome and every attention you may need.
Happy camping, enjoy and dont break my favourite site!

Local attractions

This is an ace base for trips to Alton Towers (20 minutes’ drive) for folk who fancy riding rollercoasters like the Nemesis and Oblivion. Spend one day scampering among the top-class attractions here, then slow things down the next with countryside explores. The Peak District National Park (around 25 minutes) is full of walking paths, while other spots like Trentham Gardens (20 minutes) are top for traipsing round too. If checking out cheeky creatures is more your bag, head to Trentham Monkey Forest (20 minutes) and wander among the free-roaming animals. Around 140 Barbary macaques live in the woodlands and meadows here – make sure to look up and spot them swinging through the trees. Once you’ve snapped pics of the primates, set your sights on some of the market towns scattered around the area. Stone, a settlement on the Trent and Mersey Canal (15 minutes), is well-regarded for its food and drink options, while Cheadle (55 minutes), just outside the wood-covered Churnet Valley and the scenic Staffordshire Moorlands, is worth stopping in too.
