Could anyone recommend CLs near the Leeds - Liverpool Canal? We would like to cycle / walk the tow-path. We would be in a Motorhome, and, prefer EHU and Toilets.

Thank you

I posted this earlier this morning but when I submitted it I got the dreaded Error page; then had to go out, so here I'm trying again:

I thought of another site: Bridge House Marina at Garstang.  It's a marina and site, so not a CL, and the prices are for 2015, but perhaps worth a look?  It's many years since we stayed there for a weekend, but it's right by the canal.

Another CL worth considering may be Thursland Hill Farm.  Again, it's a few years since we stayed there, but it was a lovely Cl with really helpful owners.  Not right by the canal, but within cycling distance of Glasson Dock from where you can pick up the canal.  Also there is a cycle path to Lancaster which you can pick up from Glasson.

Thanks again InaD, have checked them out on website, look ideal.

Write your comments here...Does it affect your search aims as the above are adjacent to the Lancaster canal and not the Leeds - Liverpool?

Yes, it is the Lancaster Canal, but as the OP asked for sites NEAR the LL Canal, and given that they had already stayed at Allanson Hall Farm at Adlington, I thought these were quite near.  In fact, it connects with the LL Canal further down.
