About Colemere Caravan Park
This small, tranquil site is set on five acres of grassed land, brushing the edge of a tranquil lake. Welcoming adults only, it is ideal for those looking to escape the crowds and enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside. The site offers a total of 35 grass pitches, each allowing up to two guests. Tents, trailer tents, caravans, campervans and motorhomes are all welcome, with nine of the 8m x 4m pitches coming with the added benefit of a 16 amp electric hook up. For those who prefer to go hassle-free and don't fancy bringing the tent, the site also has a selection of couple friendly glamping options on offer. Inside the two camping pods and the shepherd's hut, you'll be treated to a cosy double bed, heating, double glazing and electric. For relaxing nights in, there is a TV and you will also have tea and coffee making facilities for your morning brew. Outside you will have a private veranda area with seating, and the hut even enjoys scenic lakeside views. Please note, bedding is not provided. The Kingfisher yurt is also perfect for two, kitted out with all of the luxuries of a hotel room. You will have a solid oak frame bed, bedding, bean bags, a TV, heating, tea and coffee making facilities, plus a dining table and chairs. The Shropshire Union Canal and the wildlife and birdlife-packed Wood Lane Nature Reserve are also within a 15 minute walk! Evenings can also be spent cooking up a BBQ or toasting marshmallows over one of the fire pits to hire onsite. Please note, BBQs must be raised from the ground and only fire pits from the site are able to be used. Four-legged friends are also welcome to join you for your stay, with up to two allowed per pitch and in the pods.

We are very new to campervanning and what a great place to pick for our very first stay. We selected a non electric pitch as we wanted to experience how we would get along. The pitches were very separated so we got a view over trees and the hillside (plus horses!) There was a short walk to the very clean toilet and showering area. We could have used the communal fridge/cooking lodge with comfy chairs which did look inviting. There was plenty of walking to be had - we went to Elsmere and lunched at the Boathouse, but there was a good walk and pub in the opposite direction.
Lovely break

Loved this campsite. Ingrid showed us to our pitch. Heavy rain was expected so she put us where we would be more sheltered. We were given a map of the area. The location is fantastic. Lovely walk along the canal to Ellesmere. Went in the Vaults, quirky lovely bar. Ate at the Red Lion and the Boathouse, both really nice. Showers were clean and had a nice little dressing room. The best bit was the Social area, which was a life saver for us in a two man tent in the rain. Would return here next season.
