About Brackenthwaite Farm Certificated Location
Brackenthwaite Farm Certificated Location is a small campsite near Carnforth in Lancashire, taking caravans and motorhomes. It has showers on site. The certificated status means it operates under a exemption that allows a small number of pitches without full licensing - a format that suits touring caravanners and motorhomers looking for a straightforward stop rather than a large resort.
The site is positioned on a working farm in the Lancaster area, which sits between the Lake District and the Ribble Valley. For those touring through the North West, it offers a rural base with easy access to both Morecambe Bay and the fell country to the north and east.

What visitors say
Brackenthwaite Farm is an absolute gem! Immaculate holiday lets in a beautiful and tranquil setting, where everything has been thought of with care and attention to detail. The owners are really friendly and welcoming, and nothing is too much trouble. Dogs are very welcome and there is an enormous exercise field for them to run about in. There is play equipment for young children, farm animals to help feed, bbq's for use, and when the evenings cool down there is a fire pit that you can sit around and enjoy. They have Stables too so you can take your horse along and enjoy riding in the surrounding area. There are lots of beautiful walks nearby, and around 40 minutes to the lake district so it's a great base, although it is so lovely and relaxing you would find ut hard to leave. They also have facilities for camping and caravans.

Another fabulous stay at Brackenthwaite Farm. The Dairy is beautiful & has everything you could need, perfect for a relaxing short stay with our dogs, with the amazing exercise field on the doorstep. We’ve had a lovely stress free lazy couple of days with the dogs chilling in the shade of the trees. Would highly recommend to others…..couples, families, with or without dogs, the location is lovely & peaceful, & a great base to explore the Lakes, or just stay on site & relax.

We had a lovely stay at Brackenthwaite farm. Corner cottage was comfortable, clean and cosy. Both our young children and dog had a great time. The field where dogs can exercise and kids can play was amazing. Location is also a plus, there is a lot to do and see in the area within a short driving distance. The owners were also very friendly and helpful.

Both Harry and Matthew were very welcoming and helpful. The Dairy was absolutely beautifully done, throughout was spotlessly clean and everything you could want for a self catering place for 2 people. In the middle of the living area is a well that is lit up and makes a great feature. The mezzanine bedroom offers the same great views of the dog exercise and children's play area, and the fields beyond as you get from the lounge window. My only two petty criticisms are ceiling height upstairs and in the bathroom (if greater than about 6'2", you may have to bend) and the shower lacked any power....neither of which would put me off staying here again. The Corner Cottage, where my daughter, son-in-law and two granddaughters stayed was equally as nice, clean and equipped. Both cottages were given 6 eggs, supplied by the farms free range chickens. There were also ducks, geese, pigs, goats and alpacas to entertain the granddaughters. We were lucky with the weather, which always helps! I will miss the early morning birds (woodpeckers, tits, sparrows...) eating a few meters from our window. All-in-all a great spot to stay and to use as a base to visit the surrounding area
