  • Within easy reach of the Forest of Bowland, Pennines and Lake District
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 Site looks like is being improved and many parts look great the bar and entertainment rooms, pool etc.

Disliked Areas need upgrading and some pitches have a large drop at the back which to some can feel unsafe. Toilets and showers are decent but need brought up to date. 2 people on the bars is insane so cafe needs to be bigger...pizza isn't good in there.

Nicola C.

Electric gravel touring pitch (small)

Liked Lovely site with bar and activities for small children, along with an indoor swimming pool.

Disliked Not enough indoor seating at the bar or entertainment area.
No activities for older children - wouldn't let them use the dartboard even with adult supervision.
Toilets were not cleaned regularly
Better signage for bins and waste disposal needed.
Site needs wifi as phone signal is extremely limited and was unable to book the swimming pool as no internet signal
1 cafe on site with only 3 tables, 1 burger van at limited times - better onsite food options needed
Busy fully booked Easter weekend with only 1 member of staff on the bar, very slow, flat draught drinks and ran out of bottled lager by Saturday (Budweiser)
Entertainment team tried but focused on young children and were also helping to clean up the tables due to lack of bar staff.
Large sign on the road further down from the camp site is very confusing and sends you into a housing estate
Friendly reception staff just not enough on a busy weekend - had a problem with electrical hook up, called reception and said they would resolve, 40 mins later no resolution. Attended reception twice with long queues and called 6 times and went to answer machine. Eventually resolved.

Electric gravel touring pitch (large)

Liked I enjoyed the bingo,however it did seem that 1 table wone 3 times on the adult tickets and 1 time on the children ticket.

Disliked Well to say it was a nightmare on the tourer pitches so small ,uneven. We should have had a large electric pitch not what we got.We should have had electric now this was a joke kept on triping so we had to waste a load of freezer food . I have never in my daya of camping had this problem been without electric .people who had young babies could not have hot water as they wers without electric.emergency phone number no body even answered the phone absolutely ruined our easter break.

Electric gravel touring pitch (large)

Liked Pitch was in a good spot, entertainment was good.

Disliked Some improvements are needed. Toilets and showers need cleaning more, it hadn’t been cleaned since we arrived Friday. Running out of beer for several days, a bank holiday also knowing it could be busy. More staff are needed, feel like current are over worked. Swimming should be free when staying at the holiday park I don’t agree with having to pay.

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…
