 Very enjoyable stay. Never saw owners (but didn't need to!), communications before arrival were great.

Nicely laid out, spacious pitches. Views across the bay are amazing. Lovely cafe just outside the entrance.

Easy walk into town.

Would definitely stay again, if in the area.

 We loved the campsite at Gibralter farm. The view of Morecombe Bay from the spacious and beautifully kept grassy field was beautiful.

And it was lovely to be able to wander through the woods to the private cove and over the fields to the beach.

There was lots of space and utter tranquility with birdsong and no traffic noise.

The washing and toilet facilities were modern, plentiful and immacualately clean.

Thank you to Amy and the team. We will be back.

 Lovely setting and a well organised site.

Plenty space for kids to wild play and a lot for them to explore (stoney beach area & rock pools a woodland & ‘rocky caves’ and farm animals ) a great escape.

 After a horrible journey up the M6 from Warwickshire we arrived at 3 pm and were greeted by the friendly stand-in steward. We booked in and were directed to pitch R7 with a sea view which we had requested. We last visited in September 2022 on pitch L34 and witnessed spectacular sunsets.

We had overlooked the fact that the sun sets further to the north in June and our view of the sunsets from our ‘van was hidden behind a bank of trees (albeit they do provide a windbreak from northwesterly winds. In future we will pre-book L9 or L10 if available.

In all other respects it was a good pitch with EHU and water hook up. I would score facilities at 10/10 if the pitches also had grey water disposal but a wastewater trug is required here.

The toilet/shower facilities are well designed and kept spotlessly clean. The grey and black water disposal are sighted adjacent, together with dish washing up facilities for campers. A laundry room is an added bonus for those staying for longer periods.

The campsite is accessed along Hollins Lane which is tight for a conventional caravan and more so for an 8 foot wide ‘van. That said, we were able to negotiate it and there are passing places. The campsite is situated on a working farm and you do have to drive through cow slurry from the milking parlour on wet days (and wash it off the front of the caravan and wheels on arrival). Hence my 8/10 score for location.

From the campsite there is a “dog walk” through woods, or a short walk to Jack Scout NT Nature Reserve and onto Jenny Brown’s Point with views across Morecambe Bay and Heysham (nuclear power station).

Further on you can cross the causeway to Quaker Stand and visit the bird hides overlooking pools on the salt marsh. We spotted a Marsh Harrier, Kestrel, Spoonbill, Grey Heron, Avocet, Godwit and a large colony of Black-headed Gulls, and more.

A short drive or bus ride away is Wharton Crag Nature Reserve where we spotted Peregrine Falcons and amazing views from the summit along marked trails. Similarly, RSPB Leighton Moss Reserve is fantastic for similar bird sightings and otters, with marked trails, hides and a viewing tower.

It also has a good cafe. If you are not RSPB Members there is a discount for arriving by public transport and is served by rail and bus routes. Nearby is Arnside again with amazing views from the summit of the Knott and several cafes in town.

One “must do” in Silverdale is lunch or dinner at the Silverdale Hotel - probably the best pies in Lancashire if not the world! Good beer too and very friendly service.

So overall, a very good campsite for a stopover if travelling north or south, weekends away or longer holidays.

 We were really impressed by the site and it has very good facilities. The wardens were very friendly and helpful.

We were walking the Morecambe Bay for Breast Cancer so it was an ideal base.

We will be rebooking for September to explore the local area.

It was very quiet and any problems were soon resolved with the wardens.

Absolutely lovely views. The only thing as feedback to the owner's would be to reassure guests that going down the farm track was the correct route as we were rather anxious we would have to turn around with our motorhome.

Thank you for a wonderful couple of nights.

 Welcoming site despite not being able to prebook due to busy owner.

Quiet (we were there midweek) and clean with free, adequate showers.

Lovely walks from the site.

Loved having cows as our neighbours too.

 Had we not been on pitch 15, which is sandwiched between the toilets and the bins, I might have given this site a high score.

But I’m equally miffed that when we saw 2 cracking sea view pitches that were empty, the steward 2 days running said that we couldn’t move there as they were booked, yet nobody pitched there the whole time!

This site is good with great facilities, just a shame the steward wasn’t more helpful and just check you’re not on pitch 15

 Great campsite with excellent facilities.

Views from the site are amazing if you're lucky enough to have a pitch facing the sea.

Lovely to wake up hearing the pheasants and birds. Toilets are shared at the moment but there are plenty and private cubicles.

Loved the boot and dog wash.
