Can anyone recommend a site for a seasonal pitch around forest of bowland/ Preston/ Lancaster
Ideally family friendly with kids playground and possibly close to somewhere that is suitable for paddle boarding
Many thanks

Don't forget to leave a review of the campsites you have visited this year or last!
I know you're looking for personal recommendations, but in the meantime have you looked at the Campsite Search facility?
------------- XVI yes?
As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
I tried a site search centred on Lancaster and it only came up with 10 or so sites within 10 miles that took seasonals & had play areas. Factor in the wish to be near safe water, and I think it’s the work of half an hour to check a few reviews. One of the sites was a fishery - are paddle boards allowed on fishing lakes? I don’t know!
If you don’t find anywhere down there, try Loch Ken near Castle Douglas just for a holiday (though it has seasonals, I’m pretty sure). All sorts of boating & the site is on the shore.
Bridge House Marina at Garstang ticks the boxes. Haven't been for a good few years but it's on the canal, kids playground, pub just a few minutes walk away.
The only thing I don't know is if they take seasonals but they do have statics so worth a call to check. I am sure there were long stay vans but may be wrong
It's a lovely site and great access onto the canal for paddle boards.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
