  • 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.

Electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked: Beautiful, peaceful site. Very clean facilities. Would stay here again. Just the kind of pitch we like, trees / hedge behind , uninterrupted view ahead.

Disliked: Bit of a trek to the toilet block , especially back uphill in the rain!

Gareth T. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric gravel and earth motorhome pitch

Liked: The site is a lovely quiet, and peaceful place. Mainly made up of glamping pods, but space for a number of small to medium sized camper vans and motorhomes. The little cafe/bar on site is very reasonably priced, offers a good choice of food and drinks, and the quality is excellent. The staff are very friendly and would even bring any ordered food to your pitch/pod. Seating areas are located around the site, spread out for privacy, lovely grounds and a clearwater stream running through.

Disliked: It's not a dislike, but the pitches to the top left of the site by the additional building is a little uneven, but ok with chocks. The ground is hard though with little grassed areas, so just a thought for anyone wanting to put up awnings, hard standing pegs needed and a solid mallet. We walked up to the pitches at the top right of the site and these appeared much better laid out with more grass areas, so would request these if visiting again.

From the manager: Hi Gareth, Thanks for your lovely comments, and so happy you enjoyed your stay with us. Our staff are lovely and always go the extra mile. The grass pitches are lovely they are sightly higher in price :)

Excellent site with plenty of walks for the dog. Great bar on site…

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.
