  • Peaceful adults-only touring site on a Lancashire farm
  • A 15-minute drive to the coast at Blackpool; 25 minutes to Lytham
  • Award-winning site with hardstanding pitches and easy level access
An active outdoor break or some time to chill out in the fresh air – it’s up to you how you spend your time at Charoland Farm Caravan Site, a rural Lancashire touring site a couple of miles from the small town of Wesham. In fact, you’ll be able to blend a bit of both easily enough at this spot, which is handily placed close to both the M55 and A585 for straightforward outings around the area – perhaps over to the coast for days in Blackpool, Fleetwood or Lytham St Annes. Looking inland, Preston and the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are both within a half-hour drive as well. Ribble Valley is around 25 minutes' drive away. As for the on-site relaxation aspect, that should be pretty easily achieved too – pitches at this site are for adults only, so you should find yourself surrounded by like-minded folk while you're here. That approach aims to maintain a peaceful atmosphere on site, which is further boosted by the rural surroundings of meadows and farmland. There are plenty of places nearby for walks and bike rides, although as there’s a pond at this farm site you may find that some wildlife makes its way to you from time to time. The touring pitches at this award-winning site are well-kept block-paved ones, with easy level access and grassed areas where you can put up an awning. The site’s service area has fresh and waste water points, a toilet disposal area and recycling bins; there’s also a toilet and shower block with separate men’s and ladies’ facilities. At the centre of the site is a screened barbecue/picnic area; a convenience store and coffee shop are 10 minutes’ walk away too.

What customers say

This little gem for adults is lauded for its spotless state, calm vibe, and super friendly owners, Jane & Walter. Guests love the tidy pitches and spotless facilities. Minor points: no Wi-Fi/weak signal, and a need for motorhome waste & pot wash. Still, a brilliant stay, and people can't wait to be back.

Electric optional hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked A beautifully presented site - Neat, tidy, pretty - great job Walter!
Quiet site, friendly hosts.
Clean facilities

Disliked Didn't dislike anything about the site itself.
But be aware that the mobile phone coverage was dreadful on both EE and Giffgaff. Zero coverage inside the van most of the time.
It would have helped to have a motor home grey water disposal drain/grid (one that is accessible directly from a motorhome outlet pipe)

The pitches were level easy to pull on & off.

Liked Small site, very clean, grass hedges and shrubs were all pristinely trimmed. Check in instructions were clear and easy to follow. Site was secure from none residents.

No grey waste point for motorhomes and no hose pipe facilities for the filling of fresh water tank.
No Wi-Fi

Local attractions

Fancy a day at the beach? Blackpool (15 minutes’ drive) is a great place to start – as well as the fabulous sandy beach, you should make time to head to the top of the Blackpool Tower, try out some of the rides at Blackpool Pleasure Beach and ride one of the heritage trams along the prom. Blackpool’s a lively place, so for a more leisurely time head north to the Victorian town of Fleetwood (25 minutes), home to an excellent traditional indoor market, or south to Lytham St Annes (25 minutes), which has historic sights including a restored Victorian pier and Grade II listed windmill as well as a golf course, boating lake and lots of places to eat and shop. For other days out, step into the past at the Ribble Valley Steam Railway & Museum (15 minutes), take woodland walks in the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (half an hour) or look out for birds at RSPB Hesketh Out Marsh (40 minutes).
