Dale View Certificated Location

Five vans, adults only, and a coarse fishing lake for a neighbour: Dale View Certificated Location is a Caravan and Motorhome Club CL on Oakenclough Road at Whitechapel, near Preston, sitting at the foot of Beacon Fell Country Park. The site is inside the Forest of Bowland, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with views across to Parlick, Fairsnape and the Bleasdale Fells from the pitches. The fells and the River Brock are walking and cycling country straight from the gate, the market town of Garstang and its supermarkets are a short drive away, and Lancaster and Blackpool are both close enough for a day out from this corner of Lancashire. All five touring pitches are hard standing, each with 10 amp electric hook up, a drinking water tap, a grey water drain and plenty of room for an awning. As a Certificated Location this is a members only site, and it takes caravans and motorhomes only: no tents, and no children either, so families should look elsewhere. Dogs on leads are welcome. What you are paying for at Dale View is the quiet and the view rather than a long facilities list, and the lake next door is the main event for anyone who fishes. The site is open all year, arrival is from 12:30pm, and John and Helen Bell take bookings on 01995 61060.
