At Woodlands Caravan Park we have a selection of self catering accommodation, perfect for a "get-away-from-it-all" break. Choose from 1-bedroom cottage apartments and 2-bedroom caravan holiday homes, all of which are available for rental by the week, or for a short midweek or weekend break. Mature protected woods surround the Park and there are many pleasant walks in the area. Woodlands Caravan Park is Exclusively for Adults, in order that you have ample peace and quiet to enjoy your precious leisure time. A David Bellamy Conservation Award winning park, all our accommodation is set in pleasantly screened, landscaped gardens. Woodlands Caravan Park is conveniently located in West Lancashire’s “Green Belt”, which is an oasis of peace and quiet but just 20 minutes from the M6 motorway for easy travelling to and from your holiday hideaway. Woodlands Caravan Park is located in the beautiful village of Mere Brow, which has Tea Rooms, a working Blacksmith's Forge, a Village Shop and our local Pub, the Legh Arms, which serves great food every night except Mondays. Just ten minutes drive from the Park is the Victorian resort town of Southport where you can enjoy Theatres & Cinemas, shop on Lord Street, dine out at an immense range of Restaurants, including some of the best in the north-west, and stroll on what is now the longest Pier in the UK, recently fully restored and rebuilt.
