Sit back and spend some quality time together at Blakemere Touring Caravan Park, set in the central Cheshire countryside. Warm and friendly, and with excellent facilities to match, this spot has exactly what you need to relax with the people you admire the most. A bus stop with convenient routes to Norwich and Chester is a short stroll from the site. Together with Cuddington train station, 25 minutes’ walk away, there’s also access to the gorgeous village of Knutsford and the historic city of Chester. Calling all archers… also potters, shoppers and falcon fans… for Blakemere Touring Caravan Park is also in a prime slice of the countryside adjacent to Blakemere Village. The village has a shopping centre housed in a block of converted Edwardian stables, alongside a miniature railway, and may be the only village where you can saunter from an archery range to an antiques market, or slot a falconry display alongside making and painting your own mugs. If you’re peckish, there are many great places to eat and drink in the village, which includes pubs, a coffee bar and several artisan food outlets. Barbecues are allowed for those who want to dine outdoors. Pick up provisions from the farm shop just a five-minute drive down the road and do your chopping, grating and dicing in the food prep area. The kids might be so chuffed with the adventure playground that they offer to do the washing up… Dogs are welcome: the adjacent Mersey Forest makes a fine venue for walks with canine companions and there’s a tap to hand for the cleaning off of muddy paws.

Bronze electric gravel touring pitch

Liked: Lovely clean site, fantastic location, really friendly helpful site staff. Brilliant on site amenities. Definitely a return on the cards. Having the village on the doorstep a bonus.

Disliked: No fault of the site but the waterlogged walking areas. WiFi wasn’t available, but sometimes it’s good to get off line.

Bronze electric gravel touring pitch

Liked: Great site, well maintained with good facilities. So much to do for the whole family in the blakemere village next door. Access to cafes and shops within walking distance. Very helpful and friendly staff. Stayed during a very windy spell, the bronze pitches are very sheltered as an added bonus!

Disliked: Nothing to dislike. No wifi at the bronze pitches if you want that, it wasn't important to us.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for the review, we now have wifi on our bronze pitches. We are glad you and the family enjoyed your stay and got out and about around the adjoining Blakemere Village. We look forward to seeing you next time...

Highly recommend the site, so much to do without leaving the site.

Local attractions

With Blakemere Village containing a city’s worth of stuff to do and see, no-one would blame you for staying put and savouring it all... if you do fancy venturing further afield though, Cheshire is chock full of options... Perhaps the on-site birds of prey aviary and falconry displays have piqued your interest? If so, take a trip to Chester Zoo and its underwater equivalent, the Blue Planet Aquarium (both 25 minutes’ drive), for encounters furry, fanged and cute. For a closer look at wildlife, Wood Lane Nature Reserve and the nearby Fenn’s, Whixall and Bettisfield Mosses (50 minutes) draw birdwatchers and walkers in search of avocets and herons, adders and flesh-eating bog plants. If that sounds a bit alien, beetle over to Jodrell Bank Discovery Centre to take a look at the universe through the Lovell Telescope, or travel back to 13th-century times at Beeston Castle, both 25 minutes away. Don’t forget rock and pop history at The Cavern 50 minutes away in Liverpool, along with the Tate gallery, the busy waterfront and the ferries across the Mersey…
