Situated on the beautiful Furness Peninsula, Bardsea Leisure Park is a friendly, family-run park sheltered within a former quarry.
Our all-weather touring pitches are fully serviced and have main drains, electric and a satellite TV connection. The park is open all year round for touring caravans and motorhomes.
Our shower/toilet blocks are spacious and have underfloor heating.
Site facilities include a launderette, washing up area, wifi (additional charge applies), a children's large play area, onsite pond, a dog exercise area, a large accessory shop and service centre.
Bardsea Leisure has an unblemished record of good quality, friendly service with every effort to make sure your stay with us is a happy one.
Ulverston is a pretty market town with old buildings and cobbled streets. A street market on Thursdays and Saturdays sells fresh local produce and an indoor market is open weekly. The area has a beautifully landscaped 18-hole golf course. There is a swimming pool and outdoor/indoor sports complex with gym only 300 metres from the site.
Climb Hoad and visit the Sir John Barrow Monument.
Towards Barrow-in-Furness there is South Lakes Animal Park, a unique safari park to explore on foot. See tigers, giraffes, kangaroos, lemurs and monkeys in his active conservation park.
The Dock Museum is a free attraction, telling the story of Barrow as a shipbuilding town and often has special exhibitions.
Visit Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway, travel on beautifully restored steam trains through stunning scenery to Lake Windermere where you may board the Windermere Lake Cruises.
Visit Walney Island with its nature reserve or Roa Island, with a ferry crossing to Piel Island.
