Tuesday 11th August – Saturday 15th August 2009
The approach to this site is fairly straight forward but it is not advisable to tow from the south along Todmorden Road. There is an electronic gate on the drive but this opened automatically as I approached. I assume I was spotted however for those less fortunate there is an intercom system. The owner met me on arrival and gave me, in exchange for a deposit which I think was £25, a remote control for the gate.
The pitching area is in a well kept sloping field with hardstandings that are located behind the farm house. Attached to the house is a W.C. with doubles as an information room.
About a quarter of a mile away to the north are two pubs and the nearest bus stop. I found a supermarket close to the centre of Nelson which has a tidy compact shopping area with all amenities. The supermarket car park is close enough to the town centre but be careful you don’t outstay your welcome.

I met a couple onsite who lived in France where they owned a caravan. Each year they toured parts of France in their caravan before putting it in storage near Calais. They then took their car across the channel and picked up a caravan they had stored in Dover. I'm still trying to work out if this saved them any money.
