Archers At Red Bank Farm

Archers at Red Bank Farm is a 90 pitch campsite on a working salt marsh sheep farm at The Shore, Bolton-le-Sands, near Carnforth, with pitches looking straight out across Morecambe Bay to the Lakeland hills. It won the AA Small Campsite of the Year award for 2021 to 2022 and has since turned up on the Hairy Bikers, and the sunsets over the bay do most of the marketing for it. Pitches 1 to 38 are all weather, grass topped with matting and gravel, and they suit tents, motorhomes and touring caravans; 28 of those have electric hook up. Pitches 39 to 90 are plain grass with no hook up and suit tents and smaller campervans. Access is tight, so anything over seven metres needs an experienced driver behind the wheel. Fire pits are allowed as long as they are raised off the ground and you burn only the compressed logs sold on site, dogs are welcome on short leads, and the farm has a pets corner and the Archers Cafe serving farm cooked food and salt marsh lamb. Bolton-le-Sands village has a chip shop, a Spar and two pubs within a short walk. Group bookings are family groups only, and there are no unaccompanied under 16s. The all weather pitches run from 7 March to 20 December and the grass pitches from 1 April to 31 October, with grass pitches from £22 a night for two.
