  • Family-run touring park on the Fylde coast
  • Modern amenities suitable for families and disabled guests
  • On the edge of Freckleton, 25 minutes' drive from Blackpool
You'll be in a most convenient countryside and seaside setting when you trot along to Donkey Creek Farm Caravan Site. Countryside – and wanders: this pretty rural place is on the outskirts of the Lancashire town of Freckleton and on the edge of the Lancashire Coastal Way meandering for 137 miles between Merseyside and Cumbria. Seaside: Donkey Creek is on the Fylde coast, eight and a half miles from Lytham, its sands and those four golf courses. Your nifty setting is 25 minutes' drive from the illuminating lights of Blackpool for amusements and shows, and 15 minutes from Preston for pubs and grub. Those who must have their hols served up with sparkling amenities are also well sorted here; Donkey Creek's essentials are of the thoroughly modern sort and include plenty to keep guests of all types comfortable. The bright amenities block has underfloor heating, a family bathroom and a disabled-access bathroom with walk-in shower alongside the well-kept toilets and showers; there's a laundry room for ease of cleaning sandy togs, and a veg prep room with freezer facility is also to hand for guests' use. A selection of groceries and camping/touring kit is at the site shop; for other bits, Freckleton village centre is 15 minutes' walk away.

What customers say

This immaculately kept and peaceful site is praised for its spacious, level pitches and modern, spotlessly clean facilities, including a well-equipped shower block with hairdryers and music. Visitors highlight the friendly, helpful staff and convenient location, a short walk to village amenities and a good base for exploring the Fylde coast. While occasional noise from a nearby airfield is noted, most found it exciting rather than disruptive. Some minor points include a lack of recycling bins (awaiting council provision) and a desire for more stocked on-site shop items. Overall, guests highly recommend the site and intend to return.

Helen M.

Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked We didn’t stay so can’t comment unfortunately.

Disliked My friend had been having some bouts of illness and was unable to drive, and wasn’t able to tow their caravan. We were all meant to go in a group together using 2 pitches.
My friend rang and spoke to the site and explained the situation and asked could we move to another date please. There was still plenty of availability on the site, so they had not refused anyone due to being full.
It was a no. They said they wouldn’t do it and we either go, or the money was lost.

It’s a shame because I’m not sure what difference it would have made to the site if they had just moved the date for us? Ultimately they have just made sure that we would not be booking the site in the future.

Thank you so so much!

Local attractions

Options immediately around the site include a well-equipped playground in Freckleton Memorial Park and football pitches at Bush Lane playing fields, both within half a mile, and access to the Lancashire Coastal Walk within the same distance. If you're not up for hiking the full 137 miles of the route, the local section from Freckleton to Silverdale passes Lytham, the Ribble estuary, Morecambe and the RSPB reserve of Hest Bank. Have at least a few days in Lytham whatever your holiday tastes: the Park View 4U Playing Fields four miles from the park are an excellent family option with toddler play area, teen zone, BMX track, skate park and trim trail, and the famed championship golf courses at Lytham St Annes are a top pick for teeing off. The Lytham St Annes beaches have donkey rides, crazy golf and other seaside shenanigans alongside their swathes of sand. Hikes, hacks and mountain bikes are all available around the lush Forest of Bowland, 25 minutes' drive away.
