The ridge of the Sandstone Trail runs right past this hilltop site, and on a clear morning you can see the Welsh mountains from your tent door.

This is proper walkers' territory — the kind of campground that suits couples with boots in the car, families who want space to roam, and anyone escaping the towns of the Mersey basin for a weekend under canvas. There's room for tents, campervans and caravans, all pitched high on Frodsham Hill with views stretching west across the Cheshire Plain. It's not a polished, facilities-heavy park — you come here for the air and the trails, not the entertainment.

You've got toilets and hot showers, which is all most folk need after a day walking the ridge or exploring Delamere Forest. Campfires are worth checking about when you arrive — policies can shift with the season and the weather. The vibe is low-key and outdoorsy, the kind of place where you fall asleep to silence and wake to birdsong and a big sky.

Delamere Way

Circles Delamere Forest across 13 miles of mixed woodland paths and open heath, with gentle gradients throughout and just a few short climbs. Suitable for older children with stamina, though muddy sections and tree roots make it tricky for buggies—best with a carrier. Dogs welcome and will love the varied terrain. The forest scenery, wildlife spotting opportunities, and peaceful sandy trails through Cheshire's largest woodland make this a rewarding day out for nature lovers.

Bluebell Cottage Circular Walk

Meanders through gentle Cheshire countryside with minimal incline, making it ideal for families with young children and suitable for all-terrain buggies on wider sections. Dogs welcome to explore hedgerows and quiet lanes. Expect a mix of field paths and country tracks with seasonal wildflowers, particularly bluebells in spring that likely inspired the route's name. A peaceful escape offering classic rural scenery without taxing climbs.

Norley Wildflower Memorial Walk

Meanders through quiet Cheshire countryside with gentle, undulating terrain suitable for families and reasonably steady buggies on drier days. Dogs welcome on leads near grazing land. The route passes wildflower meadows and a community memorial garden, offering peaceful views across farmland with minimal road walking. Best visited spring through summer when meadows bloom, though paths can get muddy after rain.
