Thoroughly average....
Royal Vale Caravan Park
This was our first visit to Royal Vale and sad to say it did not live up to the description in the club handbook or the sites own website. The photography on the website is very creative and cleverly disguises the small size of the majority of pitches on site. If you are planning to erect an awning, even a small one, then it is unlikely you will have space on your pitch for your car. Given that the grass areas were very wet during our stay it meant that mud got tramped into the caravan.
We advised our expected late (after 5pm) arrival and were left a welcome pack with all the information we needed. Did not see any site staff throughout our stay.
The facilities were adequate without being spectacular.
There is plenty to do in the area and I would particularly recommend Jodrell Bank and the Anderton Boat Lift.
Overall our 3 night stay was a bit of a disappointment and did not live up the expectations created by the site's publicity. It is unlikely that we will return and are more likely to look for a CL site if we return to the area.
