- Cute camping pods 15 minutes' drive from Blackpool town centre
- Carp fishery/lake on site surrounded by wildlife and trees
- Lodge with wetrooms, kitchen, showers and toilets
Decisions can be tricky sometimes. Do you go for a holiday near the bright lights of the city… or choose to get away from it all and chill in the countryside?
Do both, sensible sorts will say – you’re on holiday, after all. So amble your way over to Stanley Villa Farm Fishing and Camping, to loll in a cosy camping pod and yet be only 15 minutes’ drive from the busy centre of Blackpool; it’ll be an illuminating decision.
The pods at this glamping site are in Lancashire’s rural Fylde area. You can overlook the lake with a glass of wine and a barbecue while the sun goes down, or sit dreamily all day with rod in hand: the lake has carp to land, and is surrounded by wildlife and native trees. All very serene and peaceful, but still a quick hop from Blackpool’s beaches and attractions.
Stanley Villa pods are fully insulated, come with two beds and mattresses and have a battery-powered lantern. Power sockets to keep everything charged are in the Lakeside Lodge, where there’s also a kitchen and common room, plus plenty of up-to-date sparkling clean showers and toilets and three wetrooms.
A café is nearby, and a traditional pub with large beer garden is within walking distance.
Open from 01/01/2023 to 17/12/2023

Local attractions
The area around Stanley Villa Farm has plenty to do for those who like the contemplative life, with heritage walks and bike rides around the coast, horse riding and kayaking, traditional country pubs to sample and several top golf clubs in Preston and the surrounding area.
For a less contemplative day or three out, Blackpool is bursting with things to do for podders of all ages: the most well-known attractions here are probably the beach and the Pleasure Beach theme park, with the Blackpool Illuminations lighting up the sky each year from late August/early September.
Once you’ve got the kids off the rides, take them along to gawk at the sharks and seahorses at the Sea Life Centre, splash down the slides at the Sandcastle Waterpark and take a wallaby walkabout at Blackpool Zoo; the famous Madame Tussauds on the Promenade should also be a hit.
Preston is also well worth a visit for a day trip for five museums, the Beacon Fell Country Park and go-karting at the docks; cruise along on a canal trip or go to the Cheeky Monkeys or Rascals play centres for a family day out.
A bit further afield, the county of Lancashire has the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, historic houses, theme parks and adventure parks all to explore, as well as the university city of Lancaster and the seafront at Morecambe Bay.

Hello, thanks for your review and glad you liked the staff / service and the facilities. It's such a shame the wasps were out in force. As soon as we noticed the nest we contacted our pest control company, who have visited today and removed the nest, and set up several traps. It's made an immediate effect so shouldn't be an issue for any future visits. I am sorry the wasps would put you off recommending us or visiting again as they do only come out in force at very certain times of the year, and we have now done all we can to lessen the impact. Having worked here for over 11 years, I've only ever been stung once (when I put my hand on a broom with a wasp under it!) So it is very rare to get stung. If you do ever consider a return, you'd be more than welcome. You know where we are. Many thanks, Alex
