What customers say
This campsite gets a great rap for its super-clean facilities, brilliant staff, and loads of space. Folks loved the woodland pitches, farm animals, and play areas – a real winner for families. Minor quibbles? A bit of noise now and then from neighbours or early roosters. Most are keen to come back.

One of the nicest campsites we've visited
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We made our very first trip to Bowses Hill Farm for a three-night camping stay to coincide with the Blackpool Airshow at the start of August and it’s safe to say this gem of a site has firmly secured a spot on our 'must return' list… again, and again, and again!
We pitched up on the main camping field, framed on one side by a pretty wooded area and on the other by a small farm where sheep, goats, pigs, and chickens happily potter about. The children were in their element, feeding the pigs each day and greeting the free-roaming chickens as they strutted past our tent each morning.
Tucked into the woods at the back of the field is a brilliant children’s playground, where ours spent endless hours climbing, swinging, and making new friends from all corners of the campsite.
One of our favourite touches? Log burners are welcomed here. We brought our own, but you can hire one along with wood, kindling, and all the essentials for an evening campfire. Toasting marshmallows under a starlit sky was magical, made even better by the “magic dust” packets we picked up from the farm. We tossed about 3 on the fire each night, and the flames danced through blues, purples, and greens. The kids were mesmerised.
Cars are kept in the main car park once you’ve set up camp, meaning the field stays free of traffic, a thoughtful touch that makes the whole place feel safer and more peaceful for children to run about.
Charlotte, the lovely owner, was always close by with a smile and happy to help, whether we needed tips about the local area or advice on campsite facilities. Speaking of which, the toilets, showers, and pot-washing areas were spotless, and the hot water never failed us.
We’re already eyeing dates for our next trip, and given we’re just over an hour away, we suspect it won’t be long before we’re back. If you’re after a warm, well-run campsite just 20 minutes from England’s west coast, Bowses Hill Farm is one you won’t want to miss.

Liked Very aesthetic and well thought out
Disliked You had to pay £30 extra for firewood if you wanted to actually use the hot tub. We had assumed this would be included, and was not clear that it wouldn’t be.

The most amazing stay! We will definitely be back
The Laurels camping pod (hot tub)
Liked Absolutely gorgeous, nothing else to say about it. Spotlessly clean, warm and just all together gorgeous. There’s some amazing surroundings and an amazing nature walk on site. There’s a pub a 15 minute walk away called the 7 sisters which is also great for food.
Disliked Not that I disliked it but the first time you warm the hot tub up it takes a lot longer than 2 hours but after that it stays very warm.
