  • Adults-only Lancashire campsite close to the attractions of Blackpool
  • A 20-minute drive to Blackpool Pleasure Beach; 55 to the south Lakes
  • Farm shop on site; a pub within five minutes’ walk, a shop 10 minutes
If you’re looking for a restful adults-only location for a Lancashire camping break close to one of the most famous seaside resorts in the UK, then Norcross may be the very spot for you. Approached by a rural lane, the grass pitches are on a level field sheltered by trees, yet this secluded camping field is just 20 minutes’ drive from the bright lights and mega-attractions of Blackpool. In fact, Norcross is close to lots of places: you can be ordering a pint in the local pub within five minutes’ walk, or carry on to the village of Newton with Scales (10 minutes’ walk) for a basics shop, cash point and post office. Hop in the car and head to the market town of Kirkham (five minutes’ drive) to pick up bits and bobs in the supermarket or bag a takeaway, while a 20-minute drive will see you in Lytham St Annes for beach walks, a Victorian pier and playing golf on a prestigious links course. Amenities on site are straightforward: a couple of loos and recycling facilities, but you can buy fresh eggs for a hearty breakfast fry up, seasonal fruit or veg and plants from the owners’ farm shop – they also run a smallholding with sheep and free-range hens.

What customers say

Norcross is a quiet, adults-only campsite with spacious, clean, and mostly level pitches, often with EHU and water. Visitors praise the friendly and helpful owners, the immaculately clean toilets and shower facilities, and the peaceful atmosphere. Its location is ideal for exploring local attractions, with a bus service and a pub within walking distance. Some minor points include compact toilet cubicles and a need for a clearer entrance sign.

Maria M.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (two person)

Liked This is a well organised and welcoming campsite. The warm welcome doubled as a friendly double check on who was entering the camp. The pitches were spacious and the necessary facilities were basic but well maintained and scrupulously clean.
The site has a handy shop and garden centre, as well as walking distance to a pub restaurant.
The location provides easy access to Lytham St Anne’s, Blackpool, Thornton Clevelys and Fleetwood. More locally there are many large well known supermarkets with cafes where cooked breakfasts are readily and economically accessible.
The owners here are doing a great job. I am very happy to have discovered this lovely site and hope to be able to return soon!
Thank you Anne and Andrew.

Disliked The grass pitch was ok but could be flatter still.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked A really lovely site tucked away. It’s nice and rustic and how camping should be! With a few farm animals around, a big field for tents and campers and some gravel areas for caravans and motorhomes. Nice clean facilities, only one shower but no queue and quite fun as it was outdoor and plentiful hot water. Friendly folk who run it, also a nice wee honesty shop which is worth popping into.

Disliked Not much really apart from some dogs barking from a nearby farm in the evening and some noisy bloke the morning after (but they both did stop eventually…)

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Family run and very friendly. Both the owner and his daughter go out of their way to be helpful. Good, clean basic facilities. Nice pitches. Very good value for money and electricity paid for as used. Nice situation with a shop (good produce at very good prices) and garden centre run by Anne the owners daughter. Good foodie pub nearby and some excellent beer to be had in Kirkham a few minutes away. Handy for Lytham and Blackpool. Open all year and dog friendly. What's not to like.

Local attractions

Blackpool (20 minutes’ drive) is the main event here, and the family attractions come thick and fast: daredevil rollercoaster rides and spectacular musicals at the Pleasure Beach, snorkelling with sharks at Sea Life Blackpool, and encounters with royalty at Madame Tussauds. That’s just for starters though; don’t neglect the 4D movies and panoramic views from the Blackpool Tower Eye or miss the chance to see rare Bornean orangutans at Blackpool Zoo. Children keen to see more wildlife? Try flying displays by protected raptors at the Owl and Bird Of Prey Sanctuary (20 minutes) or introduce younger kids to the friendly alpacas and ponies at Farmer Parrs Animal World (half an hour). If you prefer to be out in the fresh country air, active families can have a rip-roaring run around on the inflatables at Blackpool Wake Park (15 minutes). Easy access to Junction 3 of the M55 (10 minutes’ drive) makes it a complete doddle to reach the walking and cycling routes of the southern Lake District National Park (55 minutes) or the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (40 minutes).
