Liked We spent five nights at the red lion campsite. It is very convenient for visiting the Lancaster Heritage Centre. Chris the owner was happy to help and answer any questions we had. We stopped on one of the hardstanding pitches which had electric and water, very convenient. The pub served food which was very good and reasonably priced as were the drinks.
Budget friendly relaxed site

Disliked Toilet is not dirty but always wet floor with sand, bad smell and low pressure of shower.
Bins always full.
Bad smell (dog urine) at my pitch area.
From the manager: Hi Thankyou for your review, it is more than likely the floor was wet due to either being cleaned or some one using them at the time, I have inspected them repeatedly and given time to dry they are complelty ok,
I’m afriad we cannot do anything about low water pressure as this is just due to being rural in location, but the showers do operate every well,
I’m really unsure about your comments regarding the buns as non of the buns have been full over the last few weeks, and also I’m unsure about the comment regained bad smell of urine by the pitch as this is compleltly strange to us and I don’t really now what to do or how to answer that one,
We would have rather have been approached in the pub with any issues so we could rectify these were possible but I have not been able to find any evidence of anything onsite
