Stunning views from stepping stones conservatory

Dining inside or out, you can enjoy stunning riverside views

Nearly as big as the young man that caught this fine specimen in one of our coarse fishing ponds

Family-owned park on the banks of the River Wyre
Carefully landscaped wildlife haven with over 5000 trees
Four well-stocked and well-maintained fishing ponds

If you're a sucker for a place with a bit of family heritage, have a look at Claylands Caravan Park. The Robinsons have owned Claylands for more than 50 years, when it was a simple 14-acre farm; since then, it’s been transformed into a landscaped holiday park, while keeping an edge of wilderness. This lush place is on the banks of the River Wyre, surrounded by more than 5000 indigenous trees and in a haven for wildlife and birdwatching: look out for squirrels, foxes, deer, rabbits and around 85 different species of bird. On site are carefully pruned hedges, shrubs and trees, loads of green space, and excellent amenities including a modern shower and toilet block, a laundry room, and drinking water taps and waste water disposal points all around. Anglers will be well chuffed with the four well-stocked and well-maintained fishing ponds, abundant with roach, carp and tench: to be in with your fishing chance, arrive with your kit and the appropriate licence, and pick up a day ticket from the family team. Other facilities on site include a handy shop for the essentials, as well as a kids' adventure playground swish enough to make grownups green with envy. Light snacks and homemade meals can be had at Stepping Stones Riverside Bar and Restaurant, just adjacent to the park (open Tuesday-Sunday all year round), which has a takeaway service, pretty views from inside the restaurant and a spacious garden for dining outside.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Friendly and helpful staff, pitches are nice and love the nature such as the ducks near pitches.

Disliked: We were without electric for some time because of an issue, finally sorted. The showers were cold. The pub was nice inside but only opened for one day of our stay. The noise on the pitch from the overhead pylons, the M6 motorway and the railway was constant through the night and was really loud. Also some of the roads at the bottom of the site are not suitable for caravans

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We thank you for taking the time to review our park and note your comments, unfortunately the issue with the electricity was due to another caravan on site and we resolved it as quickly as possible but understand your concern over this. The pub is closed on a Monday so unfortunately this must have been one of your days on site. With regard to the noise it does seem to depend on the direction of the wind whether you hear anyting but understand your issues on this. We do wish you all the best for your future holidays.

Will definitely be back thanks again.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Lovely and clean and a great park. Very friendly staff. Fully serviced easy pitch. We were pitched near the tent area. Lovely views and nice and quiet in the evening for us. Great for fishing and good selection of ponds too.

Disliked: Small downfall but would still go back. Toilet/bin facilities need to be a little closer for tourers/tent pitches.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Fabulous welcome from a lovely man at reception explained all we needed to know about the electric card etc. we were on pitch number 9 a bit on a slope but we managed without having to level up. Lovely gravel pitch and quite large. The site is very big and clean, lovely showers clean and warm with piped music which was nice singing along to last Christmas. There is a restaurant on site and there was a singer on at about 9 pm we didn't go and didn't hear a sound from anyone returning back to their caravan's etc . Overall had a very nice stay at the Claylands.

Disliked: Opposite our pitch was a massive electric pylon which was very noisy but to be fair it didn't affect our sleep and it's not the sites fault so can't hold it against them.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to review our site, we do hope you wil visit us again in 2025

Local attractions

You’ll find postcard-worthy surroundings all about Claylands. Water fans can meander along the winding banks of the River Wyre (so winding in fact, this is how the river got its name) and take a stroll on the river’s footpaths; Lancaster Canal is also nearby for lazy waterside ambles. The good news is that the river really is right on the doorstep at Claylands, so all you have to decide is which way you want to go. (If you’re really stuck, the staff on site will be more than happy to point you in the right direction, and reception is full of information leaflets and people ready to share their local knowledge.) Or you could just amble about snapping shots of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty... The market town of Garstang, five minutes' drive from Claylands, is an excellent option for this latter, as its whitewashed cottages, uneven streets and country drinkeries may make the imaginative feel like they're in a Jane Austen novel. Further afield, Blackpool is half an hour away, and both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales are reachable in under 40 minutes.
