Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Everything to like, nothing to dislike.
A very well kept site. Toilets immaculate. Handy shop on site and a fabulous, dog friendly, bar/restaurant. Staff super helpful and friendly. A quiet site with spacious pitches for motorhomes etc.
Right next to Morecambe bay and the coastal path. An easy walk to the nearby garden centre (with a nice, dog friendly cafe). Turn left on the road for a short distance and across to the canal path (albeit you've got to run like Lindford Chrystie to get across the road) to walk up to Carnforth with the Canal Turn pub being well worth a stop (also dog friendly).

Lovely camping experience and great facilities.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Lovely facilities, the warden and reception team were very friendly on arrival.
There is a small shop which seemed to have the essentials and the bar seemed very warm and welcoming but didn't visit either of them.
Good amenities in the area and lots of places to go and visit whilst staying at Bay View.
The camping field was well looked after and we enjoyed some lovely sunsets too. It was only a short walk to the great toilet/shower facilities.
