  • Well-maintained adults-only touring park in the Ribble Valley
  • A 15-minute drive to Clitheroe and 40 minutes to Yorkshire Dales
  • Easy access from the M6; restaurants a couple of minutes' walk away
A countryside location but with easy motorway access and restaurants a few minutes’ walk away? That’s the fine mix you’ll get at Northwood Caravan and Holiday Park, a family-run park in Lancashire’s lovely Ribble Valley. It’s a peaceful setup indeed here, as it’s an adults-only park with plenty of space to relax on the touring pitches and take in the views over Longridge Fell. The team that run the site take great pride in their place, as you’ll note from the pics of the immaculately maintained and landscaped grounds. Equally well maintained are the facilities, which include water and electric hookups and a smart modern amenities block with top-notch showers, a laundry area and accessible bathroom facilities. This is a popular area for walkers so bring your boost along: as well as the Ribble Valley itself there are miles more trails nearby along the coast, in the Forest of Bowland National Landscape and the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Being about 10 minutes’ drive from the M6 also means it’s easy to get to the Lake District with minimal fuss. If you need any advice on where to walk, have a chat with the owners – they’ll happily point you towards their favourite spots. For eats, there are Italian and Indian restaurants a couple of minutes’ walk away, and there are several other pubs and places to eat within five minutes’ drive (plus a Michelin-starred number 10 minutes away). Whalley and Blackburn are both about 10 minutes’ drive away for shops and places to eat.

What customers say

Impeccably kept, adult-only park with friendly, helpful owners. Clean facilities, spacious, level pitches. Convenient location. Some note road noise, a hot water fee for showers, and limited changing space.

 Carly M. 1 review

Power optional grass and gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked This was our first trip in our new caravan and we honestly couldn’t have chosen a more perfect site. The site is immaculate, the owners clearly take great pride in their surroundings and make it a beautiful place for you to stay. Walter was fantastic, he took time out of his busy day to stop and show us everything we needed to know, from the hook up, to waste disposal. He honestly couldn’t have done more to help. They have seasonal pitches and a couple who we got parked across from were lovely and very helpful! The facilities are exactly what you need and very clean. Bonus- you’re right by 3 great restaurants too! Will definitely return here. Thanks for a great stay!

Power optional gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked The site is very pretty, very clean

Disliked The showers were not fit for purpose. There is nowhere to change or hang your clothes and the showers were too close together. There was no privacy

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
You can make the showers more private by pulling the privacy curtain across the entrance to the showers , meaning you have the space to yourself.

Brilliant site and great hosts, Walter and his wife were very helpful

Liked A beautifully maintained site which is immaculately maintained and has two great restaurants within a 5 minute walk. The owner Walter is always available to help and clearly loves the site. You will not find better.

Disliked Although again although immaculately maintained the showers are a little on the small size and don’t have a dressing area.

Local attractions

Peer into the past… Samlesbury Hall (five minutes' drive) has witch tours, a heritage café and the historic house to look around, while in Whalley village (10 minutes) there’s a Cistercian Abbey, plus a viaduct, river walks and independent shops to choose from afterwards. The foodies and gin connoisseurs among you won’t be left out around here. Clitheroe (15 minutes) is a fantastic foodie town, thanks to its food festival and market (not forgetting the castle for an extra helping of history), and the Brindle Distillery (15 minutes) is a good way to wash it all down with a gin tour. Now for some nature – some good places to find that include the Brockholes nature reserve (10 minutes), Bowland Wild Boar Park (25 minutes) and all the walks around Skipton and the Yorkshire Dales (40 minutes). Those of you who aren’t finished with the action of a town or city might also want to pay a visit to the Haworth Art Gallery (25 minutes) and all of Blackpool’s attractions (half an hour), including the theme park, water park and piers.
