Has anybody stayed at the Leisure Lakes Caravan Park near Southport? Booked to stay for 4 night over the bank holiday weekend. Doesn't have a web site and cannot find any pictures etc on the web. 

Any views or comments would be appreciated.

I hope it is ok!!!

Not looking good!

Go somewhere else! I have never actually stayed and to be fair it has changed hands since I last looked so it may have improved. But last time I looked at it with a view to enquiring about a seasonal pitch I would not stay there if they paid me! However I am near there every weekend so I will pop in for you over this weekend and re assess if you wish. Have you tried Abbey Farm? Brilliant

Thanks David C,

That would be much appreciated if you could let me know if things have improved we are due to arrive next Friday for 4 nights. I have tried a few camp sites including Abbey farm but they are all booked up, i should have organsied it earlier !!

I just hope that by changing hands it has improved! 

Coley are you in the CC because we use a super CL next door to Martin Mere Wildfowl Trust.

I will make a point of going down to Leisure lakes for a look see! I may be going anyway as the pay/play golf is a pleasant interlude

Not in CC at moment

Went round leisure lakes last evening. it was awful. Caravans are close together.The vast majority are seasonals and the grass round some was nearly up to the windows! some had at least 6 windbreaks round them making a territorial area. there is one toilet block as far as i can see. Could not get in as key operated but if anything like last time I would not bother with them. Next to the golf academy there were a load of tents crammed together and across from the playground was [I think] a rally. It is definitely not my cup of tea! If you want a western evening, jet skis screaming all day, kids all over the place and what looks like a poorly kept site then you will have fun. Otherwise I would try and find somewhere else! Sorry but better knowing now so you can try!! I took a couple of photos but am not sure if I can upload them to this group

Thanks David, i have been trying to find somewhere else but without any luck, i will turn up on Friday as planned and if no good give it a miss, but things not looking good!!!

Thanks again

Hope you find somewhere. Have you tried Riverside 01704 228886 or Brooklyn holiday park 01704228534. Plex Moss park 01704 573259. Shaw hall Scarisbrick 01704 840298. Hurlston Hall Scarisbrick 01704 841064.Willowbank TP Ainsdale 01704 571566

i cannot think of any more in the Southport area apart from Cl's i'm afraid. do you want to be that area?

 both in that area.

Riverside is meant to fine if you have a caravan - bad for tenters.  However they have a club and it can be a bit noisy if you are pitched too close.

Willowbank is meant to be nice, just down the road from Southport.

Formby Point - again just down the road.
