Excellent location

We stayed here for three nights in our motorhome at the beginning of July. Yes, it is basic but the facilities are good and it is very quiet and sheltered. Having stayed at a few sites with stunning views plus high winds this year, it was quite a relief! ... Show more

Bay Cycle Route.

We arrived early and were warmly welcomed by Roger. We chose this site because of its closeness to Glasson Dock and the beginning of the Morecambe Bay Cycle Route 700. A track has been created through the grounds to make access easy. We cycled to Silverdale and back on a... Show more

Excellent site - Friendly hosts

This is an excellent CL site with very friendly owners. Nice walks to Glasson Dock or Lancaster. While there are no electrical hook ups on the CL, the owners have a small private site 500 meters away with several fully equipped hard standings and new toilet block. Either site is... Show more

Exceptionally Well Maintained Site.

Enjoyed a couple of days here, after a little retail therapy in nearby Lancaster. Being November and in a motorhome, our one priority was hardstanding, of which, all pitches are and a generous size with it. The site is peacefully located in the grounds of Ashton Hall in what appears to... Show more

For me, almost perfect. For my wife, spot on.

We both loved the site and the owners could not be more friendly or helpful. My small letdown was the donkey calling at 5:45am. The misses loves donkeys so she was happy as she could be. Many thanks for a lovely weekend, D and G.
