Commonwood Leisure

Commonwood Leisure is an award winning, family run campsite set across 60 acres of lakes and woodland in Holt, Wrexham. With luxury glamping pods, a lakeside safari tent and pitches for caravans, motorhomes and tents, it's a relaxed countryside base with fishing, paddle boarding, laser tag and stone baked pizza at Acorn Commonwood, all on site.


ABOUT COMMONWOOD LEISURE

Commonwood Leisure sits in the Welsh countryside on the edge of Holt, surrounded by forest and ten lakes that are home to plenty of wildlife. It blends rustic charm with modern comforts, and at its heart is Acorn Commonwood, the site's café, pizzeria and live music bar. It's open to campers and day visitors alike, so there's always a friendly, lively atmosphere.


ACCOMMODATION

  • Luxury glamping pods: cosy, heated pods with a separate double bedroom, a sofa bed, TV, a kitchenette, a private shower room and a terrace. Bedding is included and beds are made up for your arrival.

  • Brecon safari tent: a six berth safari tent beside its own private catfish lake, ideal for anglers and families. Bring your own bedding.

  • Lakeside caravan and motorhome pitches: full hook up hardstanding pitches beside Madoc Lake, with electric, water and waste.

  • Fishing canal pitches: hardstanding electric pitches where you can fish from your pitch.

  • Non electric and grass pitches: for a simpler, traditional camping break.


ON SITE

  • Acorn Commonwood café and pizzeria bar: breakfasts, stone baked pizzas and homemade burgers, with indoor seating and outdoor seating under a large stretch tent.

  • Live music: on Friday and Saturday evenings through the summer, plus popular all you can eat pizza nights.

  • Fishing: lakes for all abilities, with free fishing for children at the café pools.

  • Wild swimming and paddle boarding: on Madoc Lake, for a small fee.

  • Wrexham Laser Tag: action packed games for groups of up to 20.

  • For families: a play area, bouncy castles, football goals and goats to feed.


WHY STAY

Commonwood is made for people who love the outdoors but still want a few comforts. Families can fill a whole weekend without leaving the site, anglers can fish from their door, and couples can enjoy a glamping pod with a pizza and live music a short walk away. Dogs are welcome on leads, and the café and bar are open to everyone, so friends can join you for the evening.
