 Some rather previous negative reviews however can’t agree. Site was lovely in every respect, were greeted respectively by staff on our arrival and it was chaos due to unforeseen road closure.
Toilet block a bit dated but functional, clean and shut for one hour from 1100.
Had a lovely hard standing pitch with loads of room either side and noticed a separate grassy section for tents.
Site in a picturesque area by river Ribble.
You can walk to Clitheroe or catch No. 2 bus that runs around the adjacent estate as we did.
Try the Bowland Beer hall opposite Sainsburys, it has a fantastic 16 real ales on plus reduced prices Tues to clear weekend stock.

Although this is a Camping & Caravan site, like many other C and C sites, tents are being squeezed out.
The ‘Friendly’ Club doesn’t feel so friendly to campers any more.
Loads of space if you have a caravan or camper van, but tents are much closer together, the ground isn’t flat or you are located under a telegraph pole, with the resulting pigeon mess on you tent or car.
Nor did we have any space to sit out as we had to keep the space clear for cars. After 3 nights we checked out.
Talking to one of the staff, he said that tents are now booking hard standing - why should we have to do this?
The site is clean, toilet blocks, well looked after, staff helpful.
But it is the lack of regard for tents that will mean we would never return.

Absolutely cracking site, very clean and tidy
Toilet blocks are extremely clean.
The man that showed us to our pitch was lovely.
Definitely going to go back, 10 out of 10. Thank you so much.

This site is best avoided. Although it is in a pretty location, convenient for riverside walks and walking into Clitheroe there are nearby sites with the same advantages and more which we would highly recommend instead.
Like most other Camping and Caravan club sites the toilet and shower facilities on this site are closed but full fees are charged. This in and of itself did not put us off. Every business is finding its own way through the pandemic crisis and we are able to cope without facilities if necessary. We were longstanding members of the club and were content to support it.
HOWEVER.
The welcome we received at Clitheroe could be described as non existent to glacially cold. We were greeted by a warden whose manner was so abrupt we wondered whether we had in some way wondered accidentally to a reception at a custodial facility. We were disconcerted but very soon to be totally appalled. We were well on the way to setting up our van which we had booked onto a hard standing pitch for unit and awning. The pitch was not big enough for our small (porch sized awning) Some 1 foot or so encroached onto the grass. We were commanded by our original receiver’s fellow warden to move it off the grass. His manners matched that of his partner and colleague. It was not possible to erect the awning on the pitch we had chosen. We asked to move to a grass pitch. We could see that other units were pitched on grass pitches. The Warden refused this request saying that we would sink into the grass. (ie not lack of availability)
We decided that we would rather go home (an hour away) than remain a second longer than necessary in such an inhospitable place. In fact we were very fortunate that we were able to move 2 mins up the road to Edisford Bridge Farm site where we were properly welcomed and where the spotlessly clean toilets and showers were open and run to enable social distancing.
We had booked 2 nights on the club site and left after half an hour. (0 nights is not an option on Nights’ stayed above)
DO NOT GO TO THIS SITE IF YOU WANT TO FEEL WELCOME

Lovely peaceful site, good facilities & fresh farm eggs.
Walked into Clitheroe which took about an hour & caught the bus back.
All in all a great place to have our maiden voyage in first ever Motorhome, will definitely visit again.

Laverick Hall Caravan Site - Lancaster
This touring site offers spectacular views towards the Lake District and Morecambe Bay, with Blackpool Tower also in the distance, yet located just over 3 miles from Junctions 34 and 35 of the M6 motorway. Visitors will find just 10 electric pitches for motorhomes and touring caravans, with access to the superfast Wifi, toilets with sinks, a shower room and fresh water taps. Dogs are allowed and there is a designated field for walks.
The local village of Halton is a mile away from the site, offering a convenience store, newsagent, pharmacy, post office and fish and chip shop. The market town of Carnforth is 3 miles away, with its train station (featured in the 1945 film Brief Encounter) and supermarkets. The seaside resort of Morecambe is within 5 miles and the Lake District is only 35-minutes drive. Find out more here

We were welcomed by a really friendly greeting, and were helped to position our unit on our choice of pitch.
The site is nice with mature trees alongside and plenty of wildlife. It is in a good location, a short stroll from the river and access to a choice of walks. Good for exploring the Ribble valley, and the Forest of Bowland area.
Good food from pub a short walk from site.
The site has 2 facilities blocks close to each other, but during our stay, one block was closed during weekdays, only opening again at the weekend. We can only assume that this was to save cleaning the 2nd block unless the site was full at weekends. However this leaves only 2 toilet cubicles in the mens facilities, which is not enough and led to delays. Frustrating and unnecessary.

We stayed here for three days and were really fortunate to have amazing weather for February! The site is small with narrow hardstandings which are mainly flat. The toilet block has been newly refurbished and looks very nice but we didn’t get to use it as they were having teething problems when we were there and there was no hot water. The wardens were very good, despite the difficult circumstances, and kept everyone up to date with what was going on. Our ordnance survey map showed some good walks nearby but these didn’t turn out to be as good as we had hoped.
Clitheroe town centre is about a half hour walk from the site but again, it didn’t really seem that great. Skipton is a half hour drive away and it is much nicer for a day out. The site is quite close to a sewage works and on the Saturday night the wind must have been in the wrong direction as the pong was awful! So, overall, the site was fine, the location poor and we probably wouldn’t go back.

Friendly wardens. Make sure you do not arrive before the time stated because not much room for many outfits near the reception area. More than two outfits and you block the narrow exit/entry road. Also was told not to arrive before 1pm or would be turned away. Pitches large enough ours was hardstanding gravel pitch with electric. Toilet block clean and warm but dated and small. There were two toilet/shower blocks side by side, one had only 3 toilets and 2 showers and the other one had 1 shower and 2 toilets. They were not central so depending where your pitch is, you may have a good walk to them.
Location was lovely next to the River Ribble. Children were having fun playing in the shallow river. Fantastic pub 10 mins walk away that did good affordable food. Clitheroe about a mile away, we did not visit as it was a bank hol and did not think much would be open. We had a lazy 3 days not doing much or going anywhere as it was so hot while we were there. Looks like there are plenty of walks and places to visit
We would visit this site again and in different weather would probably do some walking and visit Clitheroe.

Typical C&C Club site by the river on the edge of town. Wardens helpful as ever but the facilities are not as modern as some other sites.
It is a rather long walk to town and the bus service has been withdrawn. The town is interesting, if quite small, but the surrounding countryside is lovely.
The New Inn is a fantastic place for a few drinks but doesn't do any food. We had a delicious Indian meal at the Dil Raj down the street. Jenni Pho is also a great place for noodles at a reasonable price.

Had 3 nights here, some reviews mentioned standing water and hard standing pitches were a mat under grass, well this has now all been changed, all pitches are now proper hardcore pitches and have been raised to avoid any standing water where there was an issue, which was a pleasant surprise, although, we had no rain and wall to wall blue skies.
Nicely situated by the river ribble with plenty of choice to walk your dog. The facilities however are poor, I don't understand the camping and caravan club, a lot of there facilities are below standard and fall short of privately owned sites. Very old and on there last legs, not enough, 3 showers and 3 toilets in one block, there was another block but they were closed had to wait on too many occasions in a very small block.
Its a long walk into Clitheroe and all the bus stops had a sign on saying bus stop closed, didn't see any buses at all? rather strange. The walk to the pub you can see from the site is across a busy long narrow bridge where the cars have to wait for another to cross and there's no footpath on it a bit dangerous, especially in the dark after a few pints. The area of the Forest of Bowland is nice enough, lovely rolling green hills with plenty of footpaths, but once you're on the top its just peat bog, I love the Mountains of the Lakes and Scotland so it was a bit tame for us but had a lovely few walks along some fantastic valleys in the sunshine. It did its job though and our stay was good. Would I stay there again???? unsure, possibly not.
