Lower Micklin Touring Park is a small caravan park with only 30 pitches located just outside the village of Alton in the Staffordshire Moorlands. The site has received the Loo of the Year Platinum Award for its modern toilet facilities and the Destination Staffordshire Holiday Park of the Year. On offer are very spacious pitches and plenty of space for playing on the ball field as well as a small play area and electric wehicle charging points.
Many campers initially visit because of Lower Micklin's close proximity to Alton Towers (just two miles). However, once they visit they realise that there is so much more to the Staffordshire Moorlands that they return again and again. You'll find hardstanding pitches with 16 amp EHU to suit tents, caravans and motorhomes. There are also some tent pitches with a 5-Amp supply, suitable for charging and low energy devices etc. Pitches offer glorious views over the Weaver Hills and direct access onto the Staffordshire Way and a host of footpaths direct from the door. If you have the desire to travel a little further then the Peak District is only a 20 minute drive away.

At Lower Micklin we want all our guests to have an enjoyable stay. In order to achieve this there is one simple rule: all visitors must respect other guests, neighbours, the environment and the facilities at all times.
In particular this means noise must be kept to a minimum between 11.00pm and 8.00am and children need to be supervised by their parents at all times. Ball and throwing games must not be played around the caravans and tents - please use the ball field.
Earliest arrival time - 3.00pm
Latest departure time - 11am.
