Hi i want to go camping in June in Delamere, to do "Go Ape" and the Forest Festival.

i have had a look at the info provided by the forestry commission and the camp sites they recommend all seem to be caravan sites - no tents.

could someone point me in the direction of a camp site with easy access to delamere (walking) the concert is on at Linmere and i dont mind walking a mile or two.


many thanks in advance cause i still havent got my thanks button to work yet.

    thanks for that but i have only been given details of the Camping and caravanning site that opens in may and cant book tent pitches.

    is there anyone from the area who knows of a camp site where we can pitch tents, not really bothered about pools, games etc just wanna meet up with friends and stay in a tent.

    come on someone knows!!!!!

    There are several campsites around chester,i know one for sure is by the Grovenor garden center just off the A55 on the Wrexham rd.
    As said before check out ukcampsite.co.uk and look under Chester or Cheshire.

    What a absurd comment! there is nothing wrong with checking ukcampsite.co.uk,and the other comments where options and input for the benefit of the OP.

    Yeah maybe but walking from Chester to Delamere is some hike!

    Noggin the nog has a good shout because there are sites ie grosvenor racecourse and chesire oaks in and around chester with a train ride of about 3or 4 stops to mouldsworth or cuddington sta also delamere will cater for tents im sure if not and there are a couple of good people which will rent you out a corner of the farm for a fair price. I go into Delamere just to walk the dog occasionally a beautiful friendly place to go .enjoy

    Hi, was driving through the forest yesterday and saw that a new camp site has opened up right on the edge of the forest - 5 to 10 mins max away from Linmere and Go ape.
