Just spent a very pleasant 4 nights here, largeish site mainly based on livery stables and commercial fishery 4 lakes. The best way to describe the site is CLs within CLs as each group of pitches are in their own paddock, mixture of hardstandings & grass very well maintained & large.
The toilet block was spotless & looked to have been newly painted for the 08 season, small selfserve building with coin operated snack machines, dishwashing + microwave again spotless. Fishing lakes comprise of 1 large lake approx 4 acres with 3 smaller ponds stocked with all the usual commercial fish permit £5 & £6 per day dawn till dusk. There is a pub within easy walking distance, local village is Ecclestone approx 3 miles not much there but does have a supermarket, bakers, chemist, cafe, fuel & a chinese takeaway. Best place to shop is at Ormskirk a very nice market town, for the kids Camelot is only just up the motorway 10 minutes from site. This site is perfectly situated for anyone travelling from north to south who needs to break their journey due to it's easy access to the motorway network.
Great site with friendly and helpful owner. Plenty of room between pitches and field was not overcrowded. Dogs are welcome but must be kept on lead, however there is an area where dogs can be let loose. Facilities are basic but clean (you need 50p for showers)
We were charged £10 per night for 2 adults and a 2 yr old which is not to bad for a bank holiday weekend. The time we visited the site was a little rowdy up until about 10pm but this was just young children and it was only the one night over our three night stay. If the site had a children's play area then this would be perfect.
I was a little surprised not to see any information about local attractions, places of interest etc.As there was a small room on the site with vending machines and a seating area which people tended to use.
I would definitely return to charity farm and recommend it to any readers.
A very quiet campsite with the bare minimum of facilities. This however does not detract from the warm welcome you will receive. It is an ideal base to explore the local area with some beautiful countryside within easy reach. Southport and Blackpool are also easy to access. I would also recommend visiting Chorley market held in the centre of town on a Tuesday. Don't forget your 50p's for the shower. I look forward to returning soon.
Visited this site with wife and small child during a wet May weekend. Despite the rain the campsite was a hit and when we found the farmhouse to pay £20 for the 2 nights we had a good time. We called at the local pub at 8pm on the Friday but were told that no 'little ones' were allowed past that time. We didn't go back to that pub although it did look like a good boozer.
I would recommend the 'Toogood' farm shop which was a mile from the campsite and can easily be found be turning right when leaving the campsite and following the road. The steak that we BBQ'd was fabulous.There was also a small nursery which was worth a look.
The site was quite when we were there and the pitches seemed to be a good size. The toilet block was clean and tidy and the owner seemed to be a friendly sort.
My boyfriend and I have just returned from Charity Farm after a three night stay. We were staying in a tent and were both really impressed with the site. The site is well organised with labelled fields and numbered pitches. The toilets were spotless, they must have been cleaned a few times a day, as whenever I had left mud prints and grass on the floor from my shoes, it had been cleaned and mopped by my next visit. The showers were also very clean and were nice and warm; you also get a lot of hot water for your money (compared with other sites). The local pub is nice for a posh meal in its restaurant area, a bar snack or just a drink. We also had an evening in Eccleston which is just 2 miles up the road. We spent two days fishing on the ponds on the site. There was a wide choice of ponds and pegs and the pegs were well maintained. The countryside and surrounding nature / wildlife was lovely to relax in. When we were there in May, there were lots of ducks and geese about, with little baby ducklings/goslings which were nice to watch playing in the water. My boyfriend is a keen fisherman and he caught quite a few fish at Charity Farm including a large tench which he described as 'a specimen!'. I was quite happy to relax with my magazines and enjoy doing nothing! We have already planned to return to Charity Farm in a few weeks, I think it may become a regular little retreats for us to get away and relax in the country.
Have just returned after a 3 night stay, 2 of which our 3 grandchildren stayed with us. Electric hook up, awning plus extra child, £46.00. Had a great time. Fred, the owner was very helpful.
Some beautiful walks in the area. Free access to walk in all of the Farm fields, many of which are set out for cross country events. Birds, sheep & horses in abundance. Our grandchildren loved every minute of it.
Toilets & washing facilities free Showers 50p very clean. Well stocked vending machines with microwave facility.
Stayed at this camp site for the very first time, found it by looking on the Internet. First impressions very nice and big. We were put in a large field with plenty of space between one another. The toilet facilities and showers were good, (50p to use showers). They also had washing up facilities and a vending machine with snacks. There were also several fishing ponds to use for a price, in which we didn't use. Plenty of horses, but they are not inbounds to visit in the stables but they are in the fields daily. The site hasn't a play ground for the children to play on but there is space in the fields to play. A local pub a 10min walk which has a beer garden. We enjoyed our visit and will be coming back and recommending to friends.
Spent some days here around New Years Eve. Excellent planned pitches with hard standings + grass aside, good, spotlessly clean toilet block with hot showers (50p). A peaceful, countryside place,mostly for people interested in horsing, fishing and walking (with the dog probably). Liked the place, especially as the pub (Brookhouse Inn,10 min walk away) had excellent food and bar. Like to come back here. Lisbeth and Boo Johansson, Gothenburg, Sweden
Having read the good reviews, we looked forward to visiting the site but were disappointed. We were given no choice of where to site and simply told to 'go over there'. This was close to the chemical disposal point. We found it quite expensive for a basic site, as we had to pay extra for being in a trailer tent, extra for our small awning and 50p each for a shower on top of the site fees. The toilets were very clean but the shower that my daughter went into had an old razor on the floor and needed cleaning. The vending machine milk chocolate that we bought was white coated and the biscuits gone off although well within date. The other facilities in the vending machine area were OK. There were no facilities for children which we knew before arriving but we had read in other reviews that there was somewhere to play. This was not the case when we were there. There were rules about not playing ballgames on the caravan/camping area, which we agree with , but others ignored this and nothing was done. All in all we would not go back to the site.
Just been back to this campsite for the second time and it was just as good as the first!
Very quiet site, with two good fields for tents, the pitches are well enough apart and electric hook-up is readily available.
The shower/toilet blocks were kept immaculately clean all the time we were there and the snack shop, although being self service vending machines, was well equipped and clean.
There are a few really nice walks around the site, there are a number of fishing lodges there too and the local pub that provides excellent food, is only a couple of hundred yards down the road.
Oh yeah, the owner was constantly smiling and happy to be of help as well! I loved it!
What a lovely site, in the countryside. loved it here and would recommend it to anybody who has a love the the country. It is on a working farm and so is particularly good if you like animals (horses in particular). There is 4 good sized fishing ponds which is priced at £5.00 per day. Good clean toilet and shower block and a canteen which has vending machines serving coffee, tea hot chocolate, together with sweets and crisp & pop and then another vending machine that has biscuit's, cereal, pot noodles etc (very good idea). The owner is very nice and friendly and makes you feel right at home. would recommend to anybody of all ages although not much for children unless they are into fishing.
Just arrived home after experiencing our VERY FIRST camping excursion, along with eight other families. We were due to stay at a campsite in Filey, but because of extremely high winds and poor weather, we had to come home again. We found this campsite and contact the owner to see if he would accommodate such a large group and he was superb from start to finish.
We paid £8 per night/per tent for the first two people, plus £2 for each person after. The two days/one night stay there for my wife, twin girls, myself and my dog cost us a mere £12!
"Farmer Fred" pre-warned us of how basic his site was, but it was perfect for us! He even went to the lengths of providing a field so that we could all play rounders, without annoying any of the other campers.
The facilities were immaculately clean! The shower blocks are modern as are the toilets and there is a shop containing vending machines where you can purchase any necessities that you may need! Overall, the weekend has been one of the most enjoyable ones ever for me and even though this was my first taste of camping, I will be returning very soon to farmer Fred and the charity Farm campsite! Thank you!
What an excellent site. Stayed for 2 nights in our trailer tent cost £12 a night with electric hook-up. Although no facilities for children plenty of room for them to play in the fields as you pitch round the perimeters. Shower, toilet and utility facilites were very clean. Had a block with a couple of vending machines in. Had 4 ponds to fish on which cost £5 per day. Owner very helpful and friendly.
Local pub worth a visit although a bit pricey. Village nearby has supermarket and only a couple of minutes drive.
Excellent site, went with a group of friends we had 3 tents, 5 adults, 5 children with electrics and there was loads of room. OH fished for two days excellent fishing at £5 per day. Kids played ball games in front of tents and loved it. New shower block currently being built. Owner was lovely. All in all great site cant wait to go back
April 2005 Stayed here for 2 nights. People are friendly, toilets pretty clean and there is a shower in the same bulding, don't forget your 20 pence pieces you will need them. There is a little self service shop on site, only vending machines though selling sandwiches, chocolate, crisps, etc.etc., also a coffee machine.
The site is mainly for caravans and the pitches for them seem to be o.k. but for tents there is only 1 pitch which isn't very big. There may be others but we didn't see them, so if you have a large tent like the Aspen 700, there isn't much room for anyone else. The pitch isn't very well drained and is very soft, isn't level, and when it rains as it did whilst we were there it gets very, very muddy so if you don't want to dirty your tent then this isn't the place to go, also with it being a farm the approach to it is quite uneven and can be quite muddy when wet. The price for a tent inc. 2 people at the moment is £8 per night and if you want an electric hook up add an extra £2 per night.
There is a pub which is about ten minutes walk away and serves up a very nice meal and they make you feel at home, they should do too, 5 rounds of drinks and four meals cost us £76, ouch I hear you say. Points out of ten for the site for camping, I'd give 3 out of 10, for staying in a caravan, 8 out of 10.
If you are a fisherman, you should enjoy it there as there are a few lakes for you to use, well stocked too, I believe.
