Visited this site during August. This site is not what you would expect from the Caravan club. Arrived on site to see a security officer with a dog patrolling then to be told that there were issues with members from the Traveller community. We were given the option to not check in and to leave but having been out on the road touring for 3 weeks we didn't have anywhere else to go and it would have been nice to have been contacted prior to attending. Once checked in we were told not to let our children be out alone on the site. Not to use the play park and not to go to the toilet block alone due to the issues that were occurring. We were told which pitches to use that we would be safer on as bailiff's had been called to evict the travellers. Fortunately the campsite returned to some normality after a few days but the cleanliness of the toilet block was suffering, cubicles not in use, mess everywhere and the washer and tumbler out of use due to being broken by the travellers. This was an issue for us as we needed to wash clothes having been out on the road for sometime but the warden was not friendly in her approach and appeared very stressed. Later in our stay, families who had no respect for other causing issues, drinking all day around the caravan but allowing their children to run feral around other peoples caravans until 2300 hours then having a karaoke in the awning until very late. allowing their children to play on the park until 2300 hours screaming and shouting playing football when signs clearly say no ball games. The pitch we stayed on was large and flat but was by the main road and was very noisy throughout the day and night. A couple of the wardens were lovely and friendly and were sympathetic towards the situation but one in particular wasn't. She was very friendly and we got the impession that customer service was not her good point and said the caravan site was hard work. The toilet block is old and tired and ready for upgrading. Fairly good location and easy to get to Blackpool, Lytham and areas around it but we would not visit this site again.
