A tidy and well laid out campsite near Ribchester. There are hardstanding pitches but some of these are too much of a slope for campervans without large levelling blocks. They are fine for caravans. There is some road noise in the background but views of trees are pleasant. The facilities are clean and small but sufficient. We ate at The Ribchester Arms (about 20 mins walk) which was excellent. The Potters Barn cafe was also good. The longer walk to Hurst Green by the river was good but slightly overgrown in places. The cafe there was excellent too.

It's a great site with lots of walks available. Now the facilities are pretty basic. However, they're immaculately clean, and overall, the sites a credit to the owners. We'll definitely be returning!

Stayed 5 nights in campervan with children and grandchildren on camping field. Nice quiet site with spotlessly clean facilities. Large area of woodland for children to play in or walk dogs. Owner very friendly and helpful. Many nearby walks including Ribchester with shop, museum and pubs. Would recommend and look forward to visiting again.

Had a lovely weekend here in January 2022. The site is set out well with flat pitches with enough space for a caravan and a cat at the side of it. Well kept gardens and grass between each pitch are pleasant. The site is bigger than it appears on entry as there are roughly 3 areas of around 10 pitches positioned so that you can't see other campers. I believe that every pitch has electric hookup. Surrounded by fields and a wood and located a 15 to 20 minute walk downhill into Ribchester. In Ribchester there is a Spar store, the river, a beautiful church and a fabulous museum explaining about Roman times. There is the remains of a granary and roman baths within the town and clear notice boards giving information about them. £4 museum entry open 12 till 4 ( longer hours I summer). There is also a very friendly pub, the White Bull, that does food and had a roaring fire. So plenty to do in the area, pleasant woodland walks directly from the site. Clean toilets, super washing up area, even an area to wash your dog or bike. Good value, great location. I'll definitely be returning.
