What’s not to love about this campsite? Forest View Inn Caravan Park has a mini-farm chock full of friendly animals just waiting to welcome your kids – and there’s something for adults too, as the site has its own pub. Set on the outer edges of Delamere Forest in Cheshire, pitching up here also gives you access to all the forest’s walking and cycling routes. On this friendly, family-run camping and caravanning site, there is a scattering of large, non-electric grass and gravel tent pitches, all with spectacular forest views and surrounded by seasonal wild flowers. The pitches share facilities with the main campsite – they’re no more than a couple of minutes’ walk – and The Forest View country pub is about the same distance away. It opens for food from late afternoon during the week, and from lunchtime onwards at the weekend. Kids are welcome, and there’s always a traditional guest ale on tap. If the weather is playing ball, sit outside on the terrace, and if not, there’s plenty of seating inside. Of course the kids will want to meet the emus, chickens, pigs, goats and donkeys on the mini-farm too, so the chances are you won’t get to stay for long in the pub.

Primitive grass and earth tent campsite

Liked Absolutely lovely site, very friendly staff! Toilet block clean and functional. Great water pressure! Loved the animals too!

Disliked Quite close to other tents and quite lively in the evening, made getting our three year old to sleep a bit of a challenge. No fault of the site though, just luck of the draw.

Amazing stay short stay

Primitive grass and earth tent campsite

Liked The host was very friendly and excellent with the kids

Good location

Animals onsite are excellent addition

Disliked Bathroom/ toilet - I think it’s time to accept that they need replacing. Having a separate male and female one would make this site a 10/10

Use of some stakes to separate everyones pitches would be useful for both guests and management

From the manager: Hello,
we have since repaired the toilet block door and floor
its not perfect yet but is much better- we will look to replace or improve again as funds allow, thank you

Very friendly team of staff. Shelly took me and my daughter…
