Bowland Escapes

Gostou: Remote and a small campsite.

Não gostou: Children were up until 11 pm shouting and screaming in the agacent glamping pod section even though it was supposed to be quiet hours after 10 pm and silence after 11 pm. Toilets were quite dirty and didn't look like they were cleaned at all in the 24 hours we were there. With only 3 toilets for the whole campsite, they need be cleaned at least twice a day. One toilet/shower didn't have a handle on the back of the door (just a lock) and I almost got trapped in there. Staff said they were planning to get one installed but it should really not have been in use without a handle. No washing up liquid at the washing up station.

Gostou: Lovely place to stay, variety of accommodation types, and looked like there was a tippee events place for wedding etc. The animal zoo was amazing, loads to do for children for £12 each, could easily spend all day there. Bathrooms/kitchen areas spotless. Lovely reception area.

Não gostou: Although the camping field had its positives ie no restricted pitch sizes, there were a few things that could make it even better. Could invest in levelling the site as on an angle. Appreciate the point about no cars on the grass which protects it but could think about widening the existing shingle path so you can drive down to drop stuff off or even park opposite your tent. Also the grass needed a mow but appreciate it was wet which isnt ideal mowing weather. Bathroom door needs a handle as very difficult to open just with the lock button.

Gostou: Beautiful surroundings, helpful staff. A few peacocks joined us by the fire.

Não gostou: As far a I could see, not many pitches and only two toilets/showers (although clean and well maintained). Had lots of room in the spring, but in busy summer months it could be a bit crowded.

Do gerente: Hi Gemma, you are very welcome and yes - the rain came down rather hard ! Maybe see you again in 2024 and hopefully the weather will be a little kinder :)

Gostou: Loved our stay in camping pods. Pods are small so with older children having camping bunk bed was handy. Pod area has fantastic fire pits and each pod has trees around if for added privacy. Kids loved the playground and exploring the woods and finding water buffalo!

Gostou: Benches on the field, lovely toilet and shower facilities, compact site. Great for star gazing

Não gostou: Could have done with a tap to fill larger water container, but not too far to get water from the sink

Do gerente: Thanks Sarah for your god review; we are pleased you enjoyed your stay :)

Gostou: Loved this campsite. Facilities were fab. Mixture of fields with their own toilets, sinks etc. Loved being able to hear the owls and the river etc at night lying in my tent. Stars were amazing to watch. Firepit rental was great. The Wild Boar Park was fantastic. My children (ages 10 and 13) loved the interactivity.

Não gostou: Nothing... was such a nice little place!

Do gerente: WOW thankyou Karen for your fabulous review !!

Gostou: Great little campsite with good facilities - washing up stations and toilet/shower blocks very nearby. There are only 5 pitches and each one has it's own picnic table.Right on the edge of the animal park so lots of wildlife around the campsite - we had peacocks join us for breakfast.

Não gostou: While the showers were great, they were more like a wet room and I don't think the drains cope very well as everything is off grid - on the second morning one of the bathrooms was under a couple of cm of water. There is WiFi signal near the pods but none and no signal in the campsite so bear that in mind.

Do gerente: Thank you Kat for your 10/10 review, and whilst there was a couple of niggles this obviously didn't spoil your holiday break. I think we are now on top of the drainage in the new shower area so all should be fine and unfortunately as we are so rural the internet isn't great, but generally adequate for basic tasks, and you like other guests probably appreciate a bit of time away from constant messages and social media etc ;) Thanks again and hope to see you in 2024

Gostou: We loved our stay! Campsite and farm park were really friendly and plenty to do for the kids at the farm. Surrounding area is beautiful!! Campsite is lovely and the facilities are one of the best I've seen, clean and well looked after! We camped this time but would love to try out a camping pod or the roundhouse next time. Really lovely weekend had by all We will definitely be back :)
