Glamping

Bay View is one of the Holgates group's parks, on the Morecambe Bay shore between Carnforth and Bolton-le-Sands. It is a former pair of farms, and the old farm buildings now hold the bar and restaurant, with the park running to open parkland and a direct link onto the coastal footpath. Sunsets look across the bay to Grange-over-Sands.

You can stay a few ways here: hard-standing gravel touring pitches with electric, a water tap and grey waste, non-electric grass tent pitches, glamping pods, hire holiday caravans that sleep six, and a two-bedroom cottage in the park. Dogs are well catered for with a fenced exercise field, a dog-friendly area in the bar and routes onto the canal towpath and shore.

Squirrels bar and restaurant is open most of the year and welcomes non-guests, and there are a games room and play area for children. The big pool and leisure complex is at the group's Silverdale park, and Bay View guests booking the pods do not get access to it. Prices are only shown once you search dates in the booking engine.
