  • Small, scenic and rural site in the Rossendale valley
  • Fully-equipped luxury glamping pods 45 minutes' drive from Manchester
  • Wildlife trail, island, stone barbecues, firepits, deer hides and café
Moors, valley, wildlife watching and an island… lose yourself at Rossendale Holiday Glamping for glamping holidays in Lancashire countryside, 40 minutes’ drive from Manchester in the Rossendale valley. A 20-acre site once used for stabling horses in a historic courtyard, Rossendale has been converted to a holiday village by its family team, with glamping accommodation, modern amenities and a friendly vibe in a spectacular rural setting. The site has its own island with stone barbecue and firepit: this is your spot for outdoor dinners, nature spotting and lazing by the river alongside the flames of the fire. The site has been developed as a wildlife haven, home to 4,000 mature trees, a nature trail, bird tables and deer hides… as well as picnic tables for more lazy meals. Walks of varying lengths start straight from the grounds, into the Rossendale valley and the adjacent Pennine moors; the Pennine Way is five minutes' walk away. Accommodation is in camping pods, each with plenty of space outside and a stone table for barbecuing on. Start your day with breakfast at the Hayshed Café, then (armed with picnic snacks to take away), set off among the moors and valley, book a cycling tour around Lee Quarry or pedal off along the local paths, or go sailing or horse riding nearby.

Debbie B. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked Lovely area and very friendly staff. Toilets and showers clean and plenty of hot water. Cafe and shop open till 8pm most days. Nice walks from site. Bus close by so easy and cheap to travel to Bury, Ramsbottom, Rawtenstall and other places.

Disliked VERY windy! Sloping site so steep approach to camper van pitches. There are just 4 and they are at the top of the site, so they get the worst of the wind. Orientation of pitches means the wind comes at the unit sideways. We were there 4 nights, and despite the forecast not being too bad, couldn't sleep for 2 of them. The pitches are high and really exposed to the weather, so it was just so noisy. The toilets, however are at the bottom of the slope.Its a shame as otherwise it's a great place. Perhaps they just need to rethink the positioning or find some way to provide shelter for the campers?

Local attractions

Walks and bike rides of all lengths start either from the site or very close by, and the Rossendale team can arrange bike tours for guests via local companies. A sailing club is a 10-minute drive away if you’d like to sail or waterski; for skiing (yes, Manchester skiing), a dry slope is within 15 minutes. Hardy hikers looking for longer adventurers can join the Pennine Way five minutes’ drive from the site, on its 286-mile meander from Edale in Derbyshire to Kirk Yetholm in the Scottish Borders. For shorter – but still fairly strenuous hikes – access the 42-mile West Pennine Link near Clowbridge Reservoir in Rossendale to follow it along its path to Bolton, or take the Rossendale Way (41 miles) around the borough border, from Tippett Farm three and a half miles away. A more sedate sightseeing option is the East Lancashire Railway (15 minutes), which runs for 12.5 miles between Heywood and Rawtenstall via Bury and Ramsbottom; meals, a real ale trail, driver experiences and events such as murder mystery evenings are all held too. Also have a look at the Whitaker Museum (15 minutes) for films, open mike nights and art exhibitions. Festivals run regularly in the region too, such as May’s Ramsbottom 1940s Weekend, 25 minutes away.
