  • Neatly kept adults-only Lancashire touring site for CAMC members only
  • Beacon Fell Country Park 15 minutes’ drive; Blackpool half an hour
  • Peaceful rural views; restaurants and shops within 10 minutes’ drive
A small family-run site on the outskirts of Garstang – the world’s first Fairtrade market town – Little Stubbins Certificated Location is a quiet, adults-only spot for members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club. The neatly maintained touring pitches are surrounded by countryside views and have grassy areas for your private use, plus a modern shower block, toilets, chemical disposal point and a vending machine full of snacks and soft drinks. And never fear, this may be a rural area, but there are pubs, restaurants and shops within 10 minutes’ drive. The site sits between junctions 32 and 33 on the M6, putting it in pole position for overnight stops if you’re travelling north or south along the motorway. It is also halfway between Preston and Lancaster (both half an hour’s drive), and about the same distance to Blackpool for guests after a bit of beach time. If you prefer to explore on public transport, Little Stubbins is handily located on a bus route. Dogs are welcome as long as they are kept on short leads while on site, and you can exercise them by walking down the Lancaster Canal towards Garstang (about an hour’s walk). There are also several local spots for walks and bike rides, including Beacon Fell Country Park (15 minutes’ drive).

What customers say

Little Stubbins is described as an absolute gem, with visitors praising its size, location, and amenities. Owners are consistently highlighted as friendly and helpful, making for a great experience. The site's peaceful atmosphere and proximity to the canal, pubs, shops, and takeaways are significant advantages. While some mention it can be muddy when wet and the motorway is audible, these were not significant issues for most. Facilities are clean and effective, though £1 & £2 coins are needed for the meter.

Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch (members only)

Liked Everything about the site, the size, location, amenities and the owner. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Will return again very soon without hesitation. Absolute gem of a site

Disliked Nothing to dislike and if you do find something to dislike you don’t belong in a caravan, motorhome or campervan

Electric optional hardstanding touring pitch (members only)

Liked The owners at Little Stubbins were very friendly and went out of their way to help us when needed. The site itself was pleasant and the facilities were straightforward and effective.

The area was lovely, and the canal was pleasant to walk along, probably even better when the sun is shining. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, and will keep Little Stubbins in mind for another stay.
