  • Quiet family-run site just 15 minutes’ drive from Blackpool
  • A 20-minute drive to Preston and 25 minutes to the Forest of Bowland
  • Small and dog-friendly; pubs, shops and cafés 10 minutes’ drive away
Begin by prepping your relaxed outdoorsy outfits and perhaps some coins for Blackpool’s slots, as family-friendly Jalna Caravan and Camping is in a lush spot just 15 minutes’ drive away from the lights of Blackpool. Blackpool will likely bring to mind theme parks – the kind with wooden roller coasters and loop-the-loops, as well as those with water rides – along with amusement arcades, piers, beaches and (if you’re well-versed in the town’s ballroom history) the loud hum of Wurlitzer organ in the Tower Ballroom. All of this is only 15 minutes’ drive away from Jalna Caravan and Camping. It’s quiet in comparison at the small family-run site. Small, well-maintained and clean, and within one mile of Junction 3 on the M55, the site has been up and running for 50 years already. It has all the basic facilities, including electric hook-up, toilets and showers. Dogs are permitted on the site, but they must be kept on a lead at all times. Just down the road are a series of fishing lakes, good news for the anglers among your group. If you’re more food-focused when you’re on holiday, within 10 minutes’ drive of the site are pubs (including dog-friendly picks) and cafés in and around Elswick, Singleton and Kirkham. Get your pastries, coffees and sandwiches from the takeaways, pastry shop and coffee shop 15 minutes' walk away too. There are also two large outdoor car boot sales held regularly in the local area at weekends during the high season.

Electric grass and earth touring pitch

Liked: Lovely rural wee site, only small amount of pitches. Family Run, ideal location to commute to Blackpool. All grass pitches with some added animal visitors some chickens, horses and cows to keep you company. Lovely fruit trees with owners more than happy for us to help ourselves too. Could do with another shower/ toilets as often busy and unable to use.

Electric grass and earth touring pitch

Liked: Sehr schöner Platz mit viel Raum für jeden Stellplatz mitten in der Natur. Freilaufende Hühner und auf der benachbarten Koppel stehen Pferde. Herausragend freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Betreiber. Bei einem Problem mit meinem Auto kam der Neffe des Inhabers am Abend und hat geholfen. Sehr ruhig und doch zentral gelegen. Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt und werde sicher bei Gelegenheit wiederkommen

Electric grass and earth touring pitch

Liked: As we were brand new to Cavanning, my partner and I, traveled just 7 miles from home. I put in the notes, “please be patient with us as it is our first time towing.” We were greeted by the site owner on arrival who was lovely. He took the time to explain how to back up correctly and showed us how to hook up our pitch. He then popped back several times to check on us incase we needed help. This was much appreciated as we had a lot to learn haha. Field was perfect. Toilet block and showers were brand new and immaculately presented. Cleanest ones I’ve seen. Plenty of animals and nature visible from our caravan window. All amenities less than 100 ft away. Discovered an absolute gem here and will definitely return and recommend to others.

Local attractions

Ticking Blackpool Tower off your bucket list is one thing, but if you’re also an outdoorsy type, hiking over gritstone fells or valleys in the Forest of Bowland (from 25 minutes’ drive) will be just as much of an achievement. The Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty has riverside walks, dark skies, waterfalls and cycling paths. If you’re alright with a long-ish drive, the Lake District (from 45 minutes) is also accessible up the M6. Lake Windermere (an hour) is one of the most popular spots closest to the site. Closer to base, however, is Preston (20 minutes). The Lancashire city has a gorgeous cycling path tracing the River Ribble – and for those who want to explore more ground, the Ribble Steam Railway makes a three-mile round trip on a heritage locomotive. Lytham St Annes (20 minutes), back towards the coast, is just splendid too. Two miles south of Blackpool, the two seaside towns have a boating lake, Victorian pier and heaps of independent shops.
