You might fall over when you clap an eye on Beacon Fell View, a family-friendly park in 30 acres of landscaped parkland with rather spectacular views over the Ribble Valley. Slap bang in the middle of Lancashire, the park is conveniently placed for day trips to Blackpool but within easy reach of the Forest of Bowland, the Pennines, the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales; golf, fishing and walks are all available close by too. Firmly family-friendly, Beacon Fell View has many little touches to jazz up your break: purchase a pass at the poolside to access the indoor heated pool and paddling pool. During the high season, there is entertainment every night, as well as children's activities from 10am to 1pm every day. (In the low season, the children's activities run on weekends from 12pm to 2pm instead.) Adults can use their kids-free time to watch Sky Sports or down a drink in the adults-only lounge bar. (A family bar is available on site too.) Amenities include hot showers, a covered dishwashing area and a launderette, and kids can additionally live large at the indoor and outdoor play areas, crazy golf and arcade with amusements and a pool table. Pitchwise, all is level, grassy and within five minutes’ walk of reception; guests have access to water points and can park their car by their pitch. For supplies, nearby Longridge has a well-stocked farmers’ market, a couple of supermarkets, two decent pubs serving good food and – quids in again for the kids – an outdoor adventure centre with everything from water orbs to fencing.

Electric gravel touring pitch (medium)

Liked Nothing

Disliked Just spent 2 nights at beacon fell all i can say is i wish I'd looked at the reviews before. The pitches are the worst I have ever stayed on, weeds coming through the gravel, very large kerbs to try and get onto the pitch, dirty elsen point, road leading to pitches not wide enough to reverse van onto pitch, just awful and for £45 a night your having a laugh 🤬🤬🤬

Liked Nice views.

Disliked Tiny pitches.
Someone was already in our pitch when we arrived as well, so I had to go back to Reception and get another pitch - I was told it wasn't the first time that this had happened that day. They had no idea which pitches were actually available, so I had to tell them which ones had nobody in them.
Waited 15 minutes to be seen on arrival - everyone was having a chat in the side office and nobody (except the life guard) was paying attention to the front desk.

Camping pod (pet friendly)

Liked The site was really clean and my son who is 6 loved it. Was very safe for children to roam around and play. The pod was lovely and clean and right facing the toilets which was handy. The staff were all really friendly and helpful.

Liked Absolutely nothing to like about this site

Disliked - Checked in and someone was already on my pitch, as a group had decided they wanted to pitch next to one another.
- Gravel pitches to deep, and curbs to high so some pitches inaccessible.
- Commercial vehicles everywhere, despite not being allowed within site rules.
- Toilets dirty, despite being early afternoon.
- Whole site is generally unkempt, broken glass outside the bar, grass not cut, litter everywhere.

Liked Really enjoyed the site. So many lovely people, staff are really friendly and helpful. They held a half year xmas and all the children were treated to a gift, such a lovely idea. Great entertainment. Plenty of walks offsite too. Club house is huge with a little arcade and a pool table. Plenty of seating areas too. Food was limited options but the food tasted nice. We had a great time as did our dog Poppy. She had a lot of compliments!

Local attractions

Beacon Hill Country Park and the Forest of Bowland are mere minutes away by car and both have miles of walking routes across a range of landscapes including woodland, hills and farmland. Climb to the top of Beacon Hill to see landmarks in all directions including Belvoir Castle, Lincoln Cathedral and the hills of the Peak District. Said to be the inspiration for Tolkien’s Middle Earth (which might make you want to furry foot it there immediately), the Ribble Valley has the 70-mile path the Ribble Way, shopping in towns such as Clitheroe or munching one’s way around the Ribble Valley Food Trail. The River Ribble is a big hook for anglers landing chub, barbel, trout and salmon. City day trips are in all directions too: the kids’ eyes will light up with a trip to Blackpool… and for shopping, the Trafford Centre and Liverpool One of Manchester and Liverpool respectively should empty your wallet nicely…
