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.
