  • 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

Little Stubbins gets kudos for its prime canal-side spot, walkable to Garstang's pubs and shops. Guests love the quiet vibe, cleanliness, and super-friendly, helpful owners. Facilities are simple but work well. Minor mud in wet weather and distant highway hum were noted, but most folks had a great stay and want to come back.

Liked The owners at Little Stubbins were very friendly and went out of their way to help us when needed. The site itself was pleasant and the facilities were straightforward and effective.

The area was lovely, and the canal was pleasant to walk along, probably even better when the sun is shining. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, and will keep Little Stubbins in mind for another stay.
