Greeted onto this site in the dark and fully guided and supported by Walter, who was so patient, kind and friendly. A beautiful site, spacious, level gravel pitches. Immaculately clean toilets and showers that smell great. Definitely value for money and electricity didn't even cost 2 quid for 2 nights. Will absolutely be visiting again.

Easy to miss sign and is a very busy road. Quite a bit of road noise. The one disappointment was the majority of caravans were seasonal and therefore, hardly anyone around. Would go again as we could not fault the pitches.

Very neatly manicured grass, bushes and trees. Very friendly owners. Lovely fellow caravaners. Only reason didn't get 5 stars all round was a lack of dog walking. Though 2 or 3 times around the site should suffice. Very quiet and just what the doctor ordered.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. Unfortunately the park is quite small and that is why we don't have a designated dog walking area. As you have pointed out, you can walk your dog on a lead several times around the park and it should do the trick😀
Well maintained lovely small site

This is the first campsite I have ever stayed in and to be honest I was nervous about setting up the van. Walter was so helpful and put me and my daughter at ease. The site is beautifully presented and the showers /toilets are immaculately clean. The site is on an A road and that was appealing as I was concerned driving a van down country lanes!! But if you want a total rural remote spot this is not for you. But for me, it was a great introduction to caravanning.

Well placed site for exploring the Ribble Valley. Though off the A59 the site is set back well enough that you wouldn't think it is on a main road. I got a wonderful welcome from the owner who showed me to my pitch, went through all the details of helpful info (which was also provided by a leaflet). He was very friendly and he would definitely have been willing to help with anything you needed. The site isn't very big and very quiet. It has all the facilities you'd want including a laundry which for the size of site is great. Site rules were clear and quiet time observed... The showers do cost 20p for a minute or a pound for 5, but I was thinking about this and the costs to sites since energy increases. The shower itself was brilliant as so many site showers are luke warm so actually I didn't mind paying for a good hot shower (with temp controls to choose) and I'd rather the overall site cost be kept down and factor in an extra pound or 2 a day for a good hot shower, so I see this as a good solution in the current climate. The pitches were level. I would heartily recommend this site and will stay again, if I'm travelling solo as I was for this trip (and expect to do so again). Unfortunately my husband and I have 2 children so we can't use it for family trips or I'd bring them too! In terms of exploring there is lots to do and for motorhomes, who might want to get around, there are buses serving. All these details were on the welcome leaflet and further tourist leaflets in the laundry room/ potwash.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. It really is appreciated. It is great when campers gives a detailed review like you have. It's a great insight for other customers. Unfortunately we are adults only, but hopefully if you get some time on your own again, we would love to see you :-)

This was our first venture into caravanning and I doubt we could've picked a better site for our trip. The staff (Walter) was so helpful. Would recommend this site to anyone.

This site is perfect for us as we visit friends and relatives in Blackburn and Clitheroe. Everything is always immaculate, toilets always spotless. Walter and his wife are really friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend it to anyone. Added bonus is that the best Indian restaurant in the country is right on the doorstep!

Nice little site, really well kept and clean, great facilities and friendly and helpful owners. Power and water right next to every pitch. Two restaurants a couple of minutes walk away, we had a takeaway from the Italian Tiggis and it was superb. Only negative is it's just off a main road which you can hear, but it didn't disturb us. Would stay here again.

We stopped over for one night, to break up our journey to Scotland. Perfectly located just off the M6 with a range of restaurants within walking distance. We took the opportunity to drive across to Clitheroe Castle and see Pendle Hill. We would happily come back and stay again to explore this area further, as it has a lot of outdoor activities to offer, particularly walking and biking. Beautifully maintained site, with full laundry facilities and lovely clean toilets and showers.

This site was perfect for us as we have friends and relatives in Blackburn and Clitheroe and we wanted a nice, quiet, clean site in a convenient location for both, so this ticked all the boxes. The fact that the best Indian restaurant around is two minutes away is an added bonus.

Adult only site, located off the A59 and less than 5 minutes walk to 2 good restaurants (an Indian and an Italian). The shower block is spotless. Showers are payable at 20p per minute so ensure you take coins with you. Water is hot with good pressure. The grounds are well maintained and Walter works tirelessly to keep it that way. Nothing is too much trouble and he is always happy to lend a hand in setting up if you are struggling or give advice if asked. We had a fully serviced pitch which is our preferred type of pitch. Lots to do in the local area. Looking forward to staying again in March when the site re-opens.

Great site in the middle of the Ribble Valley with easy access from A59. We got a seasonal pitch in 2021 and think it's brilliant. Ideal site for short or longer stays. Lisa and Walter are so welcoming. Walter is always out and about keeping the site clean and tidy and always willing to help. The shower/toilet block is spotless with underfloor heating. There are washing up facilities and a washing machine situated at the site. The site is close to some lovely areas to visit and if you need recommendations for places to visit then Lisa and Walter are at hand to help. Everyone on site are always warm and friendly. We love our weekends here - a home away from home!
