What customers say

This is a highly recommended, peaceful campsite set in beautiful countryside with stunning views. Visitors praise the clean, modern, and well-maintained facilities, spacious pitches, and friendly, helpful owners. The site's convenient location offers easy access to local villages with pubs and walking trails, and dogs are welcome. While some minor issues like shower water pressure were noted, the overwhelming sentiment is positive, with many planning return visits.

Francesca Lucia M.

Acorn Pod camping pod

Liked Clean, spacious, homely, great location, really enjoyable stay. Underfloor heating, peaceful.

Disliked No oven in pod but understand if unable to have this in a wooden pod.

We also noticed a lot of acorns on the floor and around the pod itself these are actually poisonous to dogs, I know it can’t be helped what trees grow in the area we just thought it would be good to mention for others staying with dogs.

Oak camping pod

Liked The pod was lovely. Everything we needed including lots of USB sockets. View was amazing. Great base for exploring

Disliked The water in the shower was barely lukewarm. Had to contact owner and they reset the water flow to make it hot, owner suggested we use camping shower block, which seemed a bit odd. Would be nice if pod and seating area were completely enclosed. We couldn't let dog out as area wasn't secure. Few more shelves in pod would be handy

Acorn Pod camping pod

Liked Spent a comfortable week in Acorn Pod with zero issues. Pod had everything we needed for our stay but you do need to bring your own duvet and pillows which wasn't a problem. Pod is surrounded by beautiful views of the countryside and Pendal hill, site was peaceful and clean with WiFi included in the price.
Claire stopped by to say hi and see if there was anything we needed, nothing was too much trouble for her and she even put a traffic cone on the plot next to our pod so that my father could be near us in his caravan.
This was our second stay in the site's Pods, last time we were in Oak Pod. There's not much different between the 2 pods other than Oak has a built in hob where Acorn is 1 that needs to be popped on the counter and plugged in to use and Oak also has usb ports in the plug sockets where Acorn doesn't. Layouts in both pods are exactly the same and I'd happily stay in either pod again.

Local attractions

Families can get active on mountain bikes in Gisburn Forest (20 minutes’ drive), with trails for all levels of accomplishment, or follow the Pennine Bridleway (10 minutes) on cycle, foot or horseback. Try your hand at fly fishing for trout in Stocks Reservoir (15 minutes), or take in the moorland scenery of the Forest of Bowland AONB (10 minutes) on rambles across the fells. Fancy spending the day in North Yorkshire countryside? Head for the Yorkshire Dales National Park (20 minutes) to potter along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal on a barge cruise from Skipton (25 minutes), or yomp up Castleberg Crag from Settle (20 minutes) and be sure to have a look around its lively market if you’re visiting on Tuesday. Wander around the photogenic ruins at Bolton Abbey (35 minutes), and then have gentle ambles to the spectacular limestone cliff at Malham Cove (40 minutes). Once firmly back in Lancashire, follow the Pendle Sculpture Trail through Aitken Wood, or climb flat-topped Pendle Hill (both 20 minutes) and learn about the fate of the infamous Pendle Witches on the looped Walking With Witches Trail.
