  • Peaceful back to basics site on a working Lancashire farm
  • On the edge of Belthorn village; short walk from pubs and a farm shop
  • Gorgeous views and plenty of local walks; dogs welcome on site
Fabulous rural views, stunning sunsets and tons of fresh air… it’s all about the simple pleasures of life at Greystones Farm - Pendle View. Settle in at this small farm site and you’ll be in for a real rural experience, bedding down between fields of sheep and cows and looking out over miles of lovely Lancashire countryside. Based on open farm field at the top of Belthorn, one of the highest villages in Lancashire (approximately 300 metres above sea level), there are views for miles. Given the location, the site recommends you come prepared for all weather conditions. It’s a back to basics setup here, almost wild camping. There are very few facilities, with just a portable toilet, just how many people like it. You’ll be able to organise your pitch as you like though, parking your car there for maximum convenience and lighting a barbecue or campfire for keeping warm and/or cooking dinner. Dogs are welcome to join you for stays here, too, and there are plenty of nearby footpaths and bridleways where they can have a good walk (as can human guests, of course…) Although the views here are very much full-on countryside, it’s handy to note that the farm is in fact on the edge of the aforementioned village of Belthorn, a small and friendly place with a farm shop and a couple of pubs and restaurants for those times when you fancy eating out (or the weather dictates an indoor evening…) There’s also a bus stop in the village with services heading into Blackburn (15 minutes’ drive away) for more extensive shopping and eating options.

What customers say

This is a back-to-basics campsite praised for its stunning panoramic views and peaceful atmosphere. Campers appreciate the large, open field offering plenty of space and the friendly, helpful owners. Facilities are minimal, with a portaloo and recycling bins provided. While some mention road noise and occasional queuing for the toilet, most find the site to be a relaxing escape, with nearby pubs and walking routes adding to its appeal. Improvements are noted regarding toilet roll provision and clearer signage.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Great scenery. Nice flat field. Can park vehicle on the field next to the tent or close proximity. Two portable toilets on the field near entrance/exit to the field. Landlord called once to see if everything was okay. My son and me had a lovely time.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Stunning scenery. Friendly welcome and very helpful. Quite busy but all campers were considerate i.e. music stopped at 10pm. Massive field so didn't feel crowded.

Disliked Quite uneven ground ...just need to park up and walk round to find a flat spot.
Water supply took some finding but they do have one 😉

Liked Super simple fuss free booking , payment and registration.
Very basic facilities and all the better for it in my humble opinion, its a field and you go camping , what's not to like.
Panoramic views and enough space that you can pitch your tent away from others or not as you feel.

Local attractions

Getting out for a walk or a bike ride is often the prime activity that draws people to this part of the world – and there are plenty of great places to do either, including Pendle Hill (half an hour’s drive), Witton Country Park (15 minutes) or Brockholes nature reserve (20 minutes). There’s also the option of heading north into the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (half an hour) for a longer hike if you like. Mixing in a bit of history and culture should be easy enough too – perhaps a tour of the Tiffany glass collection at Haworth Art Gallery (15 minutes), a trip to see the black and white design of Samlesbury Hall (20 minutes) or a wander around the grand National Trust - Gawthorpe Hall (20 minutes). If the kids are keen to see more animals, take them along to meet pigs, feed lambs and walk with wallabies at Mrs Dowsons Farm Park (20 minutes) or set off to see a flying demonstration at the Owl & Bird of Prey Sanctuary (25 minutes). Meanwhile, if you’re on a grownup break, you may prefer to sort a gin experience at Brindle Distillery (15 minutes).
