Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked I really liked this campsite it was supposed to be just a solo trip but my parents wanted to come, so I needed to add an extra person on but Claire the owner was very helpful and very chatty, amazing site with lovely views and just had what you needed on a campinh trip had only couple of showers in female toilets but they was very hot and quite good and I enjoyed being able to choose your own pitch also.

Top-notch base to explore Bolton by Bowland - private & comfortable.
Acorn Pod camping pod
Liked The ensuite toilet and shower were modern, clean and the water was hot!
Having the smart TV was a real bonus - kept my 12 year old entertained. The patio with the table and chairs were perfect and the view was beautiful. Everything was very clean.
Disliked Microwave tricky to figure out. The crockery wasn't stored very well in the cupboard - you had to dig around for what you wanted.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked What a beautiful spot and on such a beautiful day. Super sized pitches and the one we had near Acorn Pod felt really private too. Had some great shade for such a hot day as well. Lovely 15 mins walk across fields into the postcard pretty Bolton in Bowland. Definitely recommend, and hope to return again.
