  • Peaceful adults-only touring site on a Lancashire farm
  • A 15-minute drive to the coast at Blackpool; 25 minutes to Lytham
  • Award-winning site with hardstanding pitches and easy level access
An active outdoor break or some time to chill out in the fresh air – it’s up to you how you spend your time at Charoland Farm Caravan Site, a rural Lancashire touring site a couple of miles from the small town of Wesham. In fact, you’ll be able to blend a bit of both easily enough at this spot, which is handily placed close to both the M55 and A585 for straightforward outings around the area – perhaps over to the coast for days in Blackpool, Fleetwood or Lytham St Annes. Looking inland, Preston and the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are both within a half-hour drive as well. Ribble Valley is around 25 minutes' drive away. As for the on-site relaxation aspect, that should be pretty easily achieved too – pitches at this site are for adults only, so you should find yourself surrounded by like-minded folk while you're here. That approach aims to maintain a peaceful atmosphere on site, which is further boosted by the rural surroundings of meadows and farmland. There are plenty of places nearby for walks and bike rides, although as there’s a pond at this farm site you may find that some wildlife makes its way to you from time to time. The touring pitches at this award-winning site are well-kept block-paved ones, with easy level access and grassed areas where you can put up an awning. The site’s service area has fresh and waste water points, a toilet disposal area and recycling bins; there’s also a toilet and shower block with separate men’s and ladies’ facilities. At the centre of the site is a screened barbecue/picnic area; a convenience store and coffee shop are 10 minutes’ walk away too.

Keith George H. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring caravan pitch

Liked: The moment we arrived and sore the site, we were amazed. Entry was so simple and without event. The site is immaculate and well kept, beautiful, level block pathed pitches which cannot be faulted with an added grass area for your use. Our host were amazing and very friendly always ready to chat.

Disliked: If I had a dislike it would be that there was only one toilet & shower for males and one for females. Our stay was quiet with only 2 other pitches occupied for most of our stay but I could imagine a queue forming when all pitches are occupied and guests wanting to use the site facilities over their caravan/motorhome facilities.

Local attractions

Fancy a day at the beach? Blackpool (15 minutes’ drive) is a great place to start – as well as the fabulous sandy beach, you should make time to head to the top of the Blackpool Tower, try out some of the rides at Blackpool Pleasure Beach and ride one of the heritage trams along the prom. Blackpool’s a lively place, so for a more leisurely time head north to the Victorian town of Fleetwood (25 minutes), home to an excellent traditional indoor market, or south to Lytham St Annes (25 minutes), which has historic sights including a restored Victorian pier and Grade II listed windmill as well as a golf course, boating lake and lots of places to eat and shop. For other days out, step into the past at the Ribble Valley Steam Railway & Museum (15 minutes), take woodland walks in the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (half an hour) or look out for birds at RSPB Hesketh Out Marsh (40 minutes).
