  • Peaceful back to basics site on a working Lancashire farm
  • On the edge of Belthorn village; short walk from pubs and a farm shop
  • Gorgeous views and plenty of local walks; dogs welcome on site
Fabulous rural views, stunning sunsets and tons of fresh air… it’s all about the simple pleasures of life at Greystones Farm - Pendle View. Settle in at this small farm site and you’ll be in for a real rural experience, bedding down between fields of sheep and cows and looking out over miles of lovely Lancashire countryside. Based on open farm field at the top of Belthorn, one of the highest villages in Lancashire (approximately 300 metres above sea level), there are views for miles. Given the location, the site recommends you come prepared for all weather conditions. It’s a back to basics setup here, almost wild camping. There are very few facilities, with just a portable toilet, just how many people like it. You’ll be able to organise your pitch as you like though, parking your car there for maximum convenience and lighting a barbecue or campfire for keeping warm and/or cooking dinner. Dogs are welcome to join you for stays here, too, and there are plenty of nearby footpaths and bridleways where they can have a good walk (as can human guests, of course…) Although the views here are very much full-on countryside, it’s handy to note that the farm is in fact on the edge of the aforementioned village of Belthorn, a small and friendly place with a farm shop and a couple of pubs and restaurants for those times when you fancy eating out (or the weather dictates an indoor evening…) There’s also a bus stop in the village with services heading into Blackburn (15 minutes’ drive away) for more extensive shopping and eating options.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Great communication from the owners, easy to find via the drop pin and sign posting at the site. I love the ability to pitch up where we wanted, enabled us to wake up to the most spectacular view. Toilets were clean and the campsite was neat and tidy all around a great little site.

Disliked Nothing

John H. 1 review

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Peaceful, large field, relaxing, close to Blackburn. Good price for what it is, just a field with a couple of (very clean) portaloo's. Water and firewood available from the farm.
Can be a bit windy but it is top of the hill. No issues with mobile signal.
Plenty of space for the kids and dogs to run around.
2 pubs near by, we didn't use them but fellow campers said food was gorgeous at the Dog Inn (1/2 mile away in Belthorn village)
Michelle and her family are lovely (landowners)
Definitely on our list of places to stay for a restful weekend.

Local attractions

Getting out for a walk or a bike ride is often the prime activity that draws people to this part of the world – and there are plenty of great places to do either, including Pendle Hill (half an hour’s drive), Witton Country Park (15 minutes) or Brockholes nature reserve (20 minutes). There’s also the option of heading north into the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (half an hour) for a longer hike if you like. Mixing in a bit of history and culture should be easy enough too – perhaps a tour of the Tiffany glass collection at Haworth Art Gallery (15 minutes), a trip to see the black and white design of Samlesbury Hall (20 minutes) or a wander around the grand National Trust - Gawthorpe Hall (20 minutes). If the kids are keen to see more animals, take them along to meet pigs, feed lambs and walk with wallabies at Mrs Dowsons Farm Park (20 minutes) or set off to see a flying demonstration at the Owl & Bird of Prey Sanctuary (25 minutes). Meanwhile, if you’re on a grownup break, you may prefer to sort a gin experience at Brindle Distillery (15 minutes).
