  • Dog-friendly gravel touring pitches on the edge of Longton, Lancashire
  • Preston 15 minutes’ drive; 45 minutes to Blackpool
  • Footpaths starting from the site; dog park (extra charge) on site
Irish Sea beaches, nature reserves with excellent birdwatching, and traditional Lancashire villages with welcoming pubs are all within easy reach when you stay at Meadow Farm Holiday Park. This peaceful family-friendly touring site on a working farm sits on the outskirts of the village of Longton (about a 10-minute walk from its pubs, shops and takeaways). Gravel pitches all have electricity and water hook-ups, and on-site amenities include a toilet block, a shower and a washing-up area, plus recycling facilities. Your dog is welcome to join you here; however, you are advised to keep them on a lead around the resident sheep. But don’t worry: there are other places where you can let them off the leash, starting with the on-site dog park (for which there is a fee). Your canine companion is also welcome to join you as you explore the local countryside. Footpaths starting directly from the site take you to places such as Longton Brickcroft Nature Reserve (15 minutes on foot), an area of wetlands with three large ponds for fishing. Or you can head to the tidal marshes along the local section of the Ribble Way (five minutes’ drive) and all the way to the Ribble estuary (40 minutes), whose sandflats are home to birds such as sanderlings and red knots. From the estuary, it’s a short hop to St Annes Beach (10 minutes), a vast expanse of sand that’s popular among wind- and kite-surfers.

What customers say

Meadow Farm is a small, immaculately kept, dog-friendly site in peaceful surroundings, praised for its excellent, modern toilet and shower facilities. Owners are frequently described as very kind, friendly, and helpful. Pitches are spacious with good access, and the location is excellent for walking to local shops, eateries, and pubs. A dog agility area is a popular feature. While most visitors had no complaints and would recommend, a few found it expensive and noted a lack of waste disposal facilities and limited shower/toilet provision for the number of pitches. Wi-Fi availability was also mentioned as inconsistent.

Local attractions

When in Preston (15 minutes’ drive), check out the statue of Wallace and Gromit, the beloved claymation characters created by local lad Nick Park. Then grab a picnic and head to Avenham Park. On the banks of the River Ribble, this green space has a playground and a Japanese garden with a pond. After relaxing on its sandy beaches and checking out the arcades at its three piers, a day in Blackpool (45 minutes) might entail thrill rides at Blackpool Pleasure Beach theme park, selfies with celebrity waxworks at Madame Tussauds Blackpool or a quick foxtrot with afternoon tea at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom. Attractions in the Forest of Bowland National Landscape (55 minutes) include the Tolkien Trail, with multiple paths through the landscape that is said to have inspired the land of the Hobbits; and Bowland Wild Boar Park, which is also home to alpacas and pygmy goats. From the top of Beacon Fell, in Beacon Fell Country Park, there are splendid views of Morecambe Bay.
