A warm welcome
I have to say that I was a little dubious about booking this site. I knew it had a cracking little location and if you like steam trains then you won't be disappointed. although having read previous reviews I had images of rude and unhelpful wardens and site staff, but this could not be further from the truth.
my only real moan is that on arrival at the first barrier the press button is on the left, being on my own it was a little bit of a faff to have to get out to press it (so not a massive issue really).
On entering the office to see what pitches were free I was greeted by a lovely and friendly lady who was very helpful. I managed to pitch backing onto the railway line, so had a fantastic view of the trains that ran until about 21:30.
I noticed the site staff regularly cleaning the site and its service points. All the staff were very pleasant and said hello when they passed. The toilets were clean and to the usual standard from a club site.
Just outside the site is a little pub. It was very reasonably priced and did good basic food. Your also welcome to take your dog in. I did notice that the pub was busy so it may be worthwhile reserving a table if you want to eat. The East Lancashire Railway also now has a small station next to the site.
I will be returning to this site.
