View and BookAcre Hill is located in the rural and beautiful Ribble Valley on a working farm, where we can sell you our own fresh free range hen and duck eggs.
This CL is a peaceful site with fantastic views directly from the caravan field. It is a level site with gravel hardstanding and plenty of space to enjoy a relaxing break being caravan, motorhome and American RV friendly.
Clitheroe and Skipton are a short drive away with local shops and pubs within a 5 to 10 minute drive.
The CL is ideally placed for making the most of such a picturesque area with nearby walks and mountain biking at Gisburn Forest which is only 3 miles away and Easington Fell which is on your doorstep for fantastic walking with great views from the site. There is fly fishing 3 miles away at Stocks Reservoir.
If you are meeting up with friends, we now also have a holiday cottage available to rent. For more information on all we have to offer please visit our Facebook page.

We stayed over the Easter weekend for four nights, the grassed area was particularly wet, though given the amount of rain recently this was no surprise. The hard standing pitches are slightly different to what some people might be used to, but once you get your head round the signage... Show more

I have to say the previous negative view of the site is really not at all fair. This is a lovely site on a working farm, the pitches are not as big as some sites but there were 4 large caravans 2 of which had large awnings and room... Show more

I do not like to leave negative or unnecessary reviews. However this site needed an honest review from ourselves. We arrived on site and found a pitch. Our initial impression was one of disappointment and this did not change we booked for 6 nights but left after 4. We had... Show more

Located in a very beautiful area this site is great for exploring this unique area. My only small point is for longer caravans entry and exit is ok but you need to be careful. The welcome was excellent .

Just returned from our second visit, Acre Hill has all we need in a site with superb views, curlews and lapwings, hens and ducks! Plus Vicky is lovely, very chatty.

We'd never been to the Forest of Bowland before with the caravan, and what a lovely area it is and well worth a visit. It's often passed by for the Lake District or the Yorkshire Dales. As a previous review has said, some of the approach roads are a little... Show more

Our first time in this area but won't be our last. We stayed for 6 nights at Acre Hill, over the Coronation Weekend. The road from Clitheroe is narrow in places, probably no more than 200 yards out of 3 miles though, certainly better than many we've been down... Show more

Had a very pleasant stay here, wonderful views to look out to and loads of walks to go. It was well maintained. The road in for the last view miles is a little tight but quiet and we didn't have a problem. The chickens and ducks enjoy marching around, getting everywhere... Show more
