I can only reinforce other positive reviews. This site is as described an was excellent for our needs.
It's compact and has all you need.
I agree the very good toilet blocks might struggle if the site was full but that certainly wasn't an issue when we were there.
There's a little village shop and a garage selling basics close by and of course larger supermarkets within a short drive.
The feature I'd emphasise is how easy it is to cycle into the very centre of Chester along the canal towpath. We used this site as base and needed to get to the station each morning, it was a delight to cycle there and back each day (just 20 minutes)
Can't really fault it.

Stayed here at the end of October - just before the site closed (on 31st).
Lovely site, big pitches, plenty of room.
No view as such, other than over the site itself, but that's no bad thing. Nice well kept grounds, big mature trees with squirels and rabbits roaming around.
The site borders the canal, which is nice as you can watch the narrow boats pass by.
Small amount of road noise, but not that it disturbs once inside the van.
Small loos, one shower, one urinal and one wc, which while we were there didn't cause an issue, but at busier times might.
We had been told to try the Ring o'Bells pub, but it was closed for a refurb (pub of the year 2011/12) but ended up at the Plough, a little further out, and the food there was EXCELLENT! Good value, well cooked and well worth a visit.
We had this site recommended by friends, and would happily recommend this to others.
Bear in mind its adults only.

Having just returned from our stay at Netherwood, we found the site to be very nice indeed. The pitch sizes were generous. Quiet site with easy access via the canal to Chester. A walk along the canal walking away from Chester approx 20mins is The Black Dog Pub, well worth a visit lovely grub. If we had a small concern it would be that if the site was full you may struggle with only one shower for men and one for women. Would we come again YES definitely.

I'm very reluctant to leave a review. We have been back to this site four times and it's just such a wonderful and peaceful setting that I don't want it found!
You can sit in your camper or caravan and watch the narrow boats go by. It's close enough to Chester to walk or cycle.
Pubs both ways if you walk along the towpath.
Motorcaravanners, once you are pitched, everything is within walking distance, no need to use the road. However if you need to there's the bus close by and the park and ride.
This is an unspoilt site, family run. Adults only. Dogs allowed. Clean shower and loo.
I wouldn't keep returning if I didn't love it so.

Beautiful Tranquil place, adult only site right by the canal. The map supplied isn't very good, even though we only lived on the wirral 30min down the road, following the map took us over an hour to get there. Easier way head to the cheshire cat, its about 300yrds past it and go slow because the sign is small and it creeps up on you quickly, if you reach the BP garage you gone too far.
The site was so peaceful even though you turn in off a busy road, the noise wasn't noticeable. The owner of the house met us at the window, gave us the pitch number and told us where the bits and bobs are.
You need metal pegs for this site, it looks like it's all grass but the grass is only on the surface, its pebble underneath.
It rained quite a bit the week we were there, but the place wasn't waterlogged at all. If you love watching wildlife well this is the place, baby bunnies running around everywhere, so cute.
The was only 1 fault to this place and that is the dish washing and vegetable prep areas look like they were the one's supplied when the place opened in 1966; belfast sinks, no drainer and too close 'for my liking' to the grey water facilities.
Shower and toilet facilities adequate for a short stay only. Small wood cabin near the toilet block gave lots of info on the area and on places to eat, we tried the cheshire cat, won't be going back there again, no more said!
Beautiful walks/ bike ride through to Chester in 15 min. Would consider going back for a short break only. I don't like to wash my dishes in my van, that's my only beef.

Netherwood House touring site is a very pleasant site but the facilities really are in need of updating/upgrading. The facilities are housed at the rear of the main house. The male area of these facilities consist of 1 x urinal, 1 x toilet, 1 x small wash basin and 1 x very dilapidated shower enclosure which suffers from a faulty on/off switch on the electric shower unit which means the main pull switch has to be used to use the unit.
The shower area is so small that in order to open/close the door, the actual shower tray has to be stepped in to. With the facilities being at one end of the site, anyone with any disabilities may find it a long trek from one end of the site to the facilities. The water point is also located at the facilities point making it a quite a long walk when pulling a water hog container or carrying a full toilet cassette. One elderly caravanner was seen to be driving to the water point and toilet disposal point because of the distance.
The 'washing-up'/vegetable preparation area consists of just two well worn/past their sell by date sinks with just a cold water tap for each and no draining board.
This site is very well placed for the city of Chester and there is a Park & Ride facility just a short distance from the site which will take you right into the centre of the city. Buses depart every 10 minutes or so both directions. There are plenty of pubs within walking distance most of which serve food. A petrol station is just a few hundred yards on the main road selling everyday food needs etc.
The owner of this site is a pleasant lady who lives on-site in the main large house.
Apart from the points mentioned above, this is a very well kept site which has a very large Rabbit population augmented with Wood pigeons to give an early morning call!
