Lovely, small site. Conveniently located just off the M6. The recently opened facilities are excellent. The only downside was that there was quite a lot of noise from the nearby road.

A great small site, conveniently placed, with the most fantastic 'hotel like' facilities. We used this as an overnight stop over but we made the most of it, the Lancaster Canal and the fantastic Crooklands Inn, were just outside the site. The owners were really welcoming and helpful. The showers and toilets were the most immaculate we have experienced and recommend highly. They were clean, fresh and had complimentary toiletries. I enjoyed it all, I didn't use the nail files! Excellent.

Great little site, a chanced upon trip down south. A few minutes off the M6. It's a lovely site, in pretty countryside and right next to the canal walk. It was super for dog walks. There was a beautiful new shower block, you need 20p for 3 minutes, but well worth it for a very nice waterfall type shower. Even the older shower block was nice and very clean. Definitely hoping to visit again.

On arrival was welcomed by Paul and Sarah who showed us to our pitch and explained all the facilities. Site was spotless, location perfect for our first trip. Located next to the canal, perfect for walking the dogs. Would highly recommend and looking forward to returning in 2025.

Hi Russell, Thank you for using us for your first time out! I'm glad that things worked out for you and that you enjoyed your stay. You will have noticed (and enjoyed!) the towpath refurbishment that is going on outside the site - once completed we'll have a flat, even, mud free walk on our doorstep that runs for 5km in either direction. See you in 2025! Paul & Sarah

Gorgeous little campsite. Probably the cleanest campsite we have stayed on! Owner was super friendly. Pub was 2 seconds walk away and nice food. Nice walks along the canal. All basic facilities you need when travelling in a motorhome.

A brilliant little site, close to the M6. The owners are so welcoming and the site is immaculate. Yes the showers are 20p for 3 mins, but they are so worth it. The showers have lovely hot water and they are super clean, if you forget your toiletries there are plenty available. Would highly recommend to dog owners too, it's literally a 1 min walk to the canal path which goes for miles. The pub across the road is dog friendly and the food is great. Would highly recommend and we will be back.

What a beautiful little site this is, everything was spotless and perfect. A lovely email beforehand, explaining everything and a very friendly and warm welcome when we arrived. A bonus was that the tow path beside the Lancashire canal is less than a minute away. We will definitely be back, thank you.

Very nice stop off, a bit pricey and then a small shower charge on top, a bit strange in my opinion. But, facilities very tidy and site very clean and well kept.

Absolute gem of a site, couldn't fault a thing. The owner greeted us and was so friendly and welcoming. Toilet blocks really clean and the shower was really good too, 40p for 6 minutes! Wouldn't hesitate to go back. The pub across the road has excellent food, be sure to book as we saw many people turned away. Overall, an excellent stay.

Hi Lauren, Thank you for staying with us recently and leaving such a lovely review of your time with us. Paul P.S. I'm going to the Crooklands for my tea tonight and I agree completely about booking before you arrive - it's a popular place!

Excellent, small, friendly caravan site, which was our very first with our new caravan. Quiet and nearby canal nice to walk along. Staff on site very friendly and helpful. Location perfect, close to M6 and all the South Lakes places of interest.

Could have some signage as to where dishwashing facilities are. We did not know there was another area where they were located. Could do with some lighting at night as very dark.
Site's response
Hi Julie, Thank you for staying with us recently and rating Little Acre as 5*'s. The lack of information prior to your arrival was down to me - I usually send a comprehensive email pre-arrival which includes where the facility blocks are located, what facilities are available and a map on the site. Unfortunately, the area had suffered a power cut and I had to send out a bare bones message via mobile phone, rather than the detailed greetings email. I hope that you'll visit us again and have a full explore of the site! Paul

Absolutely brilliant place. Easy to find and pitch the van. Shame it was just an overnight stop. The toilets are immaculate, with, nail files, cotton wool balls, hand cream and anything else you might need.

A lovely site very convenient for the M6. Our stay was only for one night and we were almost late for the check in, but this was fine after I phoned en-route. Facilities excellent and really clean, close to a lovely looking pub and the canal for walks. We found the M6 a little noisy, but the location was what we needed. A well maintained site.

Hi Karen Thank you for your recent stay with us. Your phonecall made all the difference, as I could reassure you that all was good with your arrival time. Hopefully we can host you again in the future. Paul & Sarah

This is a fantastic family run park that was central to everything we wanted to do in the area. The facilities were spotless and the attention to detail unbelievable with extras provided in the showers and washrooms. The washer dryer facilities were also faultless. The pitch we had was perfect for our needs as we tow a motorcycle trailer behind the motorhome. However, looking around the site, we didn't see any bad pitches. The family who run it were so friendly and always on hand, and happy to help with any questions we had regarding the local area. This is a park that we will use many times in the future. 5 stars is a true reflection!

Hi Andrew, Thank you for the lovely review of your recent stay at Little Acre - by complete chance, the following visitor onto your pitch was a motorhome with motorbike trailer as well! Enjoy your touring and we'll see you next time. Paul & Sarah

Excellent site, well maintained and the facilities have been well thought out. Clean, very clean. Close to the Lakes and Dales and perfect for stop overs as well as longer stays. Didn't see anyone or staff on site but contact via email left instructions and left to own devices. Great site will be be back

Hi Robert, thank you for staying at Little Acre and rating your stay so highly on Campsites.co.uk. I'm sorry that I didn't get the chance to say hello - my son was playing rugby 100 or so miles away, which meant that we'd set off before you arrived and it was dark when we got back! Usually, I'm around and about all day to meet, greet, show people around and help in any way that I can. Next time around we'll be able to put faces to names! Paul.

A very convenient place to stop over on way to/from Scotland along the M6 with easy access off of the motorway. No-one to greet or book us in so we just pitched up on the space advised earlier by email. Facilities all good and clean. Unable to empty grey eater tank as slight uphill grade to the drain made this impossible. Overall, pleased with our stopover and would consider again.
Site's response
Hello Don, thank you for choosing Little Acre for your stopover. On your arrival day, a family commitment 100 miles away meant that I couldn't be here when you arrived, but I'm glad that the pre arrival email including directions straight to your assigned pitch, a map of the site and details of all of the facilities at Little Acre meant that you were able to find your pitch and enjoy your convenient stopover. Paul.
