  • Neatly kept adults-only Lancashire touring site for CAMC members only
  • Beacon Fell Country Park 15 minutes’ drive; Blackpool half an hour
  • Peaceful rural views; restaurants and shops within 10 minutes’ drive
A small family-run site on the outskirts of Garstang – the world’s first Fairtrade market town – Little Stubbins Certificated Location is a quiet, adults-only spot for members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club. The neatly maintained touring pitches are surrounded by countryside views and have grassy areas for your private use, plus a modern shower block, toilets, chemical disposal point and a vending machine full of snacks and soft drinks. And never fear, this may be a rural area, but there are pubs, restaurants and shops within 10 minutes’ drive. The site sits between junctions 32 and 33 on the M6, putting it in pole position for overnight stops if you’re travelling north or south along the motorway. It is also halfway between Preston and Lancaster (both half an hour’s drive), and about the same distance to Blackpool for guests after a bit of beach time. If you prefer to explore on public transport, Little Stubbins is handily located on a bus route. Dogs are welcome as long as they are kept on short leads while on site, and you can exercise them by walking down the Lancaster Canal towards Garstang (about an hour’s walk). There are also several local spots for walks and bike rides, including Beacon Fell Country Park (15 minutes’ drive).

What customers say

Great spot! Friendly hosts, clean facilities, and handy location for walks/shops. Peaceful, good for a break or stopover. Some motor/train noise but not usually a bother. Pay-as-you-go electrics, wish there was a washing-up sink. WiFi's okay.

Power optional concrete slab caravan site (members only)

Liked Quiet location with very nice facilities. You also had the opportunity to pay for the electric you used rather than a flat rate - which is very handy if not using a lot and just need to boost batteries.

Disliked It could have done with a separate area for washing dishes as there wasn’t a designated area.

Also, the water in the bathroom didn’t really get very hot.

Liked Nice site in a lovely area. Very easy to find, a few minutes from the A6 and 15 minutes from the motorway. Coop and takeaways 6 minutes walk away.
The owner of the site is very friendly and helpful. Toilet and shower very clean. Nice walk from the site along the Lancaster canal towards Garstang.

Disliked A water tap that is accessible for a motorhome to fill up the water tank would be very useful.

Liked We used Little Stubbins as a stop-off on our way home to Cornwall from the Scottish Highlands, and it was absolutely perfect. The owners were attentive and welcoming, the location was ideal, and the easy site access gave us that extra sense of security after a long journey.
The facilities were excellent, and everything was clean, well maintained and exactly what we needed for a comfortable stopover.
We would highly recommend Little Stubbins and would definitely stay again.

Liked Rebecca and John are very welcoming. The little site is well maintained and the facilities very clean. Great to have WiFi and easy to take the dog for a walk straight from the site. A perfect stop over on way to Scotland

Liked An absolute gem! We only live half an hour way and didn't realise this lovely and peaceful site existed. We were greeted by Rebecca who was very welcoming, and she showed me were everything was without any rush. The toilet and shower area was exceptionally clean and smelt pleasant! Situated in a very quiet and idyllic setting and well maintained grounds. Great for a walk along the canal, with or without dogs. Plenty eateries, shops and pubs not far away. A nice little extra was the free wifi at the pitch - very handy. We will definitely return very soon for a lovely, quick getaway. Thanks, Rebecca.

Disliked Nothing to dislike!

Liked The site was very convenient for a stop off on the way to the Lakes. A nice site and would be well placed for a slightly longer stay.
Great to have toilet and shower. Everything was well laid out and explained.
Rebecca was very welcoming.

Disliked We had not quite worked out what we needed in the way of KWh, so ended up feeding the meter with more money than necessary.

Liked Everything :-)
This lovely compact site has lost non of the charm which I found last year and which drew me back recently for second visit.
Rebecca and John are helpful and friendly, good communication; the site is well kept the toilets and shower are very clean.
Nearby options for eating, and there is a lovely canal side walk very close by which leads to the pretty town of Garstang.
