Hawthorne Caravan & Camp Site

Arrived to pitch up today. The site was like a travellers site. It was like somebody's yard. Turned around as it's certainly not a camping site!!

It was a good experience, I did camping there. The owners are very nice people, very polite and friendly. I felt welcomed and had a nice peaceful night in my tent there.

I stayed on this this site for a week at the end of the summer 2022 and had a really nice experience. The owners were lovely and really relaxed and friendly. The pitch was perfect with 240v hook up, fresh water and an outdoor table and chair set in front of me. I felt very secure here too which was important for me. I inadvertently carried out a drunken early hours penetration test of the site after a night out in Manchester and was immediately met by the owner which again reassured me of the security here. The entrance is gated at night and covered by CCTV. The toilet and shower block, whilst fairly basic, has the best shower I have ever experienced. Ever. The water pressure is like a firemans hose and it will go as hot as you want for as long as you want and there is no button to keep pushing or meter to feed. There is a toilet cassette emptying point and litter bins and full laundry facilities (coin metered) on site also. Manchester city centre is easily accessible from this site too. Its about a 35 minute walk (about one mile) from the campsite to Oldham mumps tram station then a short tram ride into Manchester Victoria tram station and you can pay by tapping your card on the platform when you get on the tram station and tapping it again when you get off. Last tram back on a weekday and a Saturday is around midnight or 11 on a Sunday and a taxi back is about 30. When you arrive at this site, the entrance is down the slope through the black metal gates immediately beside the old pub building (The Hawthorne) - not the large car park beside it on the right.The office is within this building too.
