Lovely stay

Southport Club Campsite
We had a lovely stay over the Southport Airshow weekend. The site was in a brilliant location for us. A nice ten minute walk to a supermarket, some lovely nearby pubs serving food. A fish and chip van came to the site and they were delicious! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, the facilities were really clean, we appreciated that they were cleaned mid afternoon too! Obviously there was noise from the airshow, but we were aware of constant deep bass thrumming on the Saturday evening, it came from the nearby Pleasure Land, totally out of the control of the CAMC. The internet informed us it would cease at 1.00am, but we actually fell asleep about 22.30hrs so it must not have been too bad for us. The site was full and the staff did an amazing job. They really deserve praise.

First Time, Won't Be The Last

Southport Club Campsite
We had a very pleasant four night stay on our way to the North Yorkshire Coast. Handy for coming off the M6, the approach instructions are pretty clear, except for Switch Island where you have to keep to the left, as the road bends, until you see the signs for Southport and the road you need. I used to live in Southport, so know the area pretty well. The Campsite wasn't around when I lived there so I was looking forward to using it and meeting up with some family and old friends. If you know Southport, the site is towards the north of the town, probably nearer Birkdale, but within easy walk of the top of Lord Street. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, very warm welcome from the site staff who talked us through the layout of the site and pointed out that some pitches had been coned off because they had a propensity to flood. The site itself was very clean and tidy, and every staff member I met was approachable and helful. They clearly take pride in the site. There are very good dog walks nearby (including the beach! The nearest pub serving food is probably the Fishermens Rest, just a short walk away; good beer and food, just like it was when I lived in Southport. There are many other good eating and drinking places in the town itself, which is not too far to walk. We were there in term time, so it might have been quieter than during school holidays. All in all, I think it is a good site for a stay on the Northwest Coast, or as a stopover if you're in transit further North, as it's not too far from the M6. I think we'll be back.

Chill - Shop - Eat - Enjoy

Southport Club Campsite
We've visited this site many times over the years from when it was mostly grass and only half the size to as it is now. It's a great location for visiting other places around the north west area. The site facilities are spotless and the site staff work very hard to keep it that way. It's not the cheapest of sites but, for us, worth the difference as we like the location and the standard of the facilities. Good food to be had at The Fishermen's Rest. Great choice of supermarkets; Morrison's within walking distance or Tesco and the new Sainsbury's are a short drive away.

One of our favourite sites

Southport Club Campsite
The arrival was as always exemplary, greeted by helpful and cheerful wardens (don't know if that's what we should now call them, but meant in nice way). Told about a small number of pitches that could possible flood in bad weather and that these were marked out with cones. However the weather forecast didn't predict any rain so if we felt okay we could remove the cones and use them. The ambiance of the whole site is so relaxing, the only intrusion was the occasional mindless idiot who thought it necessary to make as much noise as possible on the road running behind the site. The facilities are as to be expected from the C&MC. Our weekend stay coincided with the Southport Food & Drinks Festival and with the fine weather this proved to be a fantastic opportunity to experience a vast array of different foods and drinks. It really enhanced our stay and would certainly consider visiting the festival again. But, I digress, food and drink does this to me. Southport site for my wife, me and our two dogs suits us down to the ground. The excellent flat large gravel pitches (important for us as motor homers) are set around two sections with a layout to suit all different sizes and combinations. One thing to note though is that the perimeter pitches do have frequent visits from the rabbit population and if you have pets that may be a problem, especially as these rabbits have lost a lot of their timidness and will come very close. Overall we have frequented this site at differing times even once over the Christmas period and it has never been a let down. It's proximity to Southport Town, the Promenade, Victoria Park and even a large Morrison's all being within walking distance make it so easy to set-up and just enjoy.

FLOODS

Southport Club Campsite
This site FLOODS and the management dont care. Scottish hospitality and leadership at its very very worst. They dont even tell you that the pitch you have chosen floods and not to put your awning up and not to leave anything on the ground. Their solution is to leave empty pallets at your pitch for you to walk on above the flood water. I have been advised to get copies of risk assessments from the CAMC as this is clearly a safety issue that needs to be followed up. NOT happy!!!!
