  • Family-run back to basics farm site in the Lancashire countryside
  • A 35-minute drive from the Lake District; 45 minutes from Blackpool
  • Picnic area on site; pubs, restaurants, and farm shop nearby
Looking to tuck into some time away in the gorgeous Lancashire countryside? Blossom Tree Camping has quite the spot for a rural stay, 35 minutes’ drive away from the Lake District and 45 minutes from Blackpool. This family-run farm is a quiet and spacious patch with some cows and many a place to kick back and relax. Well-behaved dogs are welcome here too, but they must be tethered at all times because the cows aren’t big fans. There’s a picnic area on site when you feel like planting yourself down for some tasty eats. In terms of other facilities, there’s a toilet block with ladies and gents’ toilets and a separate shower block and dishwashing area. Where to source the goods for your picnic, though? Well, no need to worry, as there are lots of food shops, including a farm shop, within five minutes’ drive of the site. Pubs are a common sight too – there are several within five minutes’ drive of the site and many more eateries (restaurants, bars and the like included) in Lancaster, 10 minutes’ drive away. The site also sells pizza cooked in a wood-fired stove. For anything else you may need and finding local attractions, there are friendly faces on site that will be happy to point you in the right direction, whether it’s scenic trails, beaches or crags. Please note that electric cooking equipment and devices such as kettles, hairdryers and straighteners may not work at this site.

What customers say

A peaceful family campsite with stunning views. Guests love the super friendly owners, spotless facilities, and tasty wood-fired pizzas. Pitches are spacious for kids to roam. Shop's well-stocked. Mostly brilliant, just a few mentions of noise and limited electric.

Liked Peace, cleanliness, best pizzas ever! A small area for younger kids to play and open spaces for bigger kids and most of all the lovely warm welcome and waves goodbye - a true family run feel.

Disliked I'm just gutted I didn't get to pet the cows!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Absolutely loved this little camp site. Owners are amazing and so welcoming. Came over to us to check everything was ok for us. Little shop on site is great Great size pitches. We had freshly made to order pizzas,garlic bread,onion rings and chips that was gorgeous and hand delivered straight to our tent. A slip and slide was put out for the kids which was the best thing the whole campsite came out with kids to go on it. Was so nice to see all the kids loving it. Only a short drive to the town to all shops. We will definitely be coming again

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The campsite owners were superb. Friendly and accommodating. We were stuck in traffic and were much later than expected, no bother and we could have pizza freshly cooked when we arrived. And a cup of hot, steaming tea.
Our pitch was great with a little wooden seat, quiet and lovely views.
The toilets were fine and the showers ace. Good setup so clothes didn’t get wet and many hooks. Plenty of room, clean and lots of hot water.
A brilliant find, definitely recommend.

Local attractions

Once you’re all settled in, it’ll be time to plot out your plan of action. Those of you who have hiking at the top of your list will, of course, want to circle the Lake District National Park (35 minutes’ drive) on your map. The Trough of Bowland (25 minutes) has plenty more scenic walking and cycling routes – this time through a remote river valley. Underline Ingleton Waterfalls Trail (35 minutes) while you’re at it – the views are very worth the small trek. Like a little of the city life too? Lancaster (10 minutes) is a good place to get in some sightseeing. The castle and the Ashton Memorial in Williamson’s Park might make it onto your tour, as should a stop in a delicious eatery (or two). Blackpool (45 minutes) is a smaller town, but there’s plenty of entertainment packed in, including a theme park, wake park, beaches and amusement piers. While you’re on the topic of bays, the Morecambe Bay (25 minutes) estuary is a haven for all things outdoor sports: sailing, kitesurfing and even parachuting. If you like to scale cliffs, head to Thorn Crag (half an hour) too.
