  • Plenty of activities, play areas, pool, crazy golf, arcade and bar
  • Within easy reach of the Forest of Bowland, Pennines and Lake District
You might fall over when you clap an eye on Beacon Fell View, a family-friendly park in 30 acres of landscaped parkland with rather spectacular views over the Ribble Valley. Slap bang in the middle of Lancashire, the park is conveniently placed for day trips to Blackpool but within easy reach of the Forest of Bowland, the Pennines, the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales; golf, fishing and walks are all available close by too. Firmly family-friendly, Beacon Fell View has many little touches to jazz up your break: purchase a pass at the poolside to access the indoor heated pool and paddling pool. During the high season, there is entertainment every night, as well as children's activities from 10am to 1pm every day. (In the low season, the children's activities run on weekends from 12pm to 2pm instead.) Adults can use their kids-free time to watch Sky Sports or down a drink in the adults-only lounge bar. (A family bar is available on site too.) Amenities include hot showers, a covered dishwashing area and a launderette, and kids can additionally live large at the indoor and outdoor play areas, crazy golf and arcade with amusements and a pool table. Pitchwise, all is level, grassy and within five minutes’ walk of reception; guests have access to water points and can park their car by their pitch. For supplies, nearby Longridge has a well-stocked farmers’ market, a couple of supermarkets, two decent pubs serving good food and – quids in again for the kids – an outdoor adventure centre with everything from water orbs to fencing.

What customers say

Beacon Fell View guests report mixed experiences. Praise for friendly staff, great views, and entertainment, especially for families. Downsides: cramped, poorly kept touring pitches, dirty restrooms, and few on-site amenities. Pool is popular but has extra costs and cleaning issues. Ongoing renovations noted.

Camping pod (pet friendly)

Liked The campsite was brilliant. Lovely pool, gorgeous little cafe & shop with lovely owners. Fun arcade & nighttime entertainment. Toilet block was clean, no issues atall. Pod was lovely to stay in.

Disliked Nothing for me although my friend said the sofa bed was quite hard to sleep on. Could be remedied by putting something in top for a better night's sleep

Liked The view of beacon fell.

Disliked The pitches are not level at all it was hard work getting the caravan on pitch, change machine switched off in arcade! Park closed and soft play closed and it was extra charge to go swimming, £4 a child and £6 an adult which I think is ridiculous especially when you have already paid to stay on the site which advertises all of these facilities! No security on site which we needed when woke at midnight with a big argument at the caravan on the pitch next to us which went on for an hour so children were woken and no body did anything to calm the situation down. I can honestly say it’s the worst site I have been on and paid a lot less for much better! Wouldn’t return or recommend.

Liked Always come here with my disabled son we really like it, it was very quiet considering it was school holidays but I know they could not open soft play because of safety issues ( that’s the part my son loves the most) but we will still keep coming back as I know sometimes things go wrong with machines and soft play needs to be safe for kids but we do like it here for our family

Disliked Could not access any cash so could not play pool or go in arcades ( the machine in the arcade to get money out did not work) and no entertainment on and this time the price of the 2 night stay should have reflected this :(

Liked Very helpful staff & team members. Lovely site, nicely laid out

Disliked Toilet & shower block dirty. Partly where visitors hadn’t flushed toilets but mainly due to lack of cleaning.

Local attractions

Beacon Hill Country Park and the Forest of Bowland are mere minutes away by car and both have miles of walking routes across a range of landscapes including woodland, hills and farmland. Climb to the top of Beacon Hill to see landmarks in all directions including Belvoir Castle, Lincoln Cathedral and the hills of the Peak District. Said to be the inspiration for Tolkien’s Middle Earth (which might make you want to furry foot it there immediately), the Ribble Valley has the 70-mile path the Ribble Way, shopping in towns such as Clitheroe or munching one’s way around the Ribble Valley Food Trail. The River Ribble is a big hook for anglers landing chub, barbel, trout and salmon. City day trips are in all directions too: the kids’ eyes will light up with a trip to Blackpool… and for shopping, the Trafford Centre and Liverpool One of Manchester and Liverpool respectively should empty your wallet nicely…
