 Just spent a few days at Gib, loved it, (although it was a little cold) the site was lovely and quiet, not many tents and a few caravans, we were in a camper so had the amenities more or less to ourselves. The site has been improved lots even since our last visit last year.
The toilet and shower block is the best we have come across with underfloor heating which was definitely a blessing in this weather, the paths have all been improved so no more tripping in the dark! (even though the boys quite liked the rocky limestone paths)
The new stewards are lovely and very helpful.
If you are wanting a campsite that has top class amenities but not a top class price this is definitely for you. It is by far the best site we have visited and one of the cheapest. The kids can be kids and spend the day climbing, exploring, getting dirty and making new friends while the adults can enjoy the gorgeous views over the bay and sip a nice vino!

Have just enjoyed a 2 night stay with friends, in total 3 tents 6 people, we found the site to be excellent in every way,
The staff were very friendly & helpful,
The views across the bay were stunning with a sunset to remember,
We enjoyed meals on both nights at the Silverdale hotel & for lovers of cask ales the Cricketers Arms is well worth a visit, both not too much of a walk from the site,
The facilities were of a very high standard & we are looking forward to our next stay.

We have just come back from a lovely weekend away at this site. The first time visiting and will definitely go back but for longer. We arrived around lunch time, the warden wasn't on site at the time but we were told by some very helpful long staying caravaners which pitches were free and which ones were the better for drainage as it had been heavy rain and some pitches were boggy. We chose our pitch with plenty of drainage and we were glad we chose the pitch we did as we did see a few struggle later getting caravans on due to the conditions of the grass on some pitches. The warden came shortly after and greeted us and said she was going to leave us to set up and get settled before coming back. She is a lovely lady and made us feel welcome.
We were situated not far from the toilet/shower block which is fantastic, out of all the campsites we have visited the facilities are the best on this one so clean and spacious. But if we were campers I think we would be writing a different review as they are quiet far away from the camping field.
The atmosphere in both the caravan and camping fields were brilliant fellow campers are so helpful and are willing to help you if struggling with awnings tv receptions as we witnessed. There is no park for the kids but you don't need it on this site with the little forest which leads to the beach and caves my kids loved it. On the Saturday of our visit Morecambe were having a firework display so we took our kids on an adventure with the torches through the forest and sat on the cliffs with many others watching the fireworks across the bay. Lovely views at the top of this site with benches so you can eat your home made ice cream. We didn't want to leave and will be back!

The location of this site is just beautiful and the village has a coop, Indian takeaway, a pub, chemist etc. The camping fields are very exposed to the winds and a seasonal caravan pitcher told us that many tents are lost and damaged due to the severe winds and he had in fact lost his own awning to the winds.
The new facilities are lovely but after using the toilet you have to walk to another room to wash your hands! ON the last day of our stay the farm tractor came down and we had to endure the machine emptying the sewage from the toilets. The stench was terrible and I'm sure a health hazard. Sadly this site isnt for us

We've been going to this lovely, friendly site for over ten years both in caravans and tents. It shows we like it so much as we keep coming back numerous times a year and will continue doing so, even though are kids are now older and don't always want to come with us. Ideal for kids as they have plenty of freedom are able to play in woods and on the beach, not in concrete parks (Just remember to tell them how dangerous the sands can be).
The new toilet/shower blocks are great, plenty of hot water in the showers, the only drawbacks are not enough hooks in the cubicles and next to the plug sockets and sinks they could do with some hooks and a shelf for campers drying their hair, doing makeup etc. So your stuff doesn't have to be on the floor just in case it is dirty (mind you we've always found the floors clean - so no criticism about cleanliness!)
Our only other criticism is that fires are no longer allowed. Fires have always been part of camping, again it's a change for kids to make melted marshmallow sandwiches, at night round a campfire (rich tea biscuits and marshmallows to those who didn't learn this in the Brownies) and it does take some of the atmosphere away, especially on a cold night in the camping field, when everyone goes inside early to keep warm rather than staying outside and having fun. Maybe the rules could be relaxed a bit that you could have a fire in an off the ground bbq or fire pit.
Finally, well done to the stewards who keep such long hours. We were there when they've put on quizzes to get everyone together. It's a great atmosphere and gets people talking and laughing together.
Again, it is just a great site, fantastic views nice area, handy Co-Op but I don't want to recommend it to any more people in case there isn't space for us when we try to book in!

One of my favourite sites, and gets better each time we go. Can be very windy at times but the views and grounds more than make up for that. Kids love it - and not a tv in sight. Plenty of beach/woodland to explore. Can get noisy around the 'monkey island' when there's a large cluster of rocks in the centre of the tent field that all the kids like to play on. Toilet/shower facilities nice spacious and well maintained. Lovely little ice cream hut upon the entrance too :) great site for exploring local area or just staying on the site! would recommend

Just returned from our camping trip to gibraltar farm and must say there new toilet block is a hit with me. There are plenty of showers, sinks and toilets, plug sockets to charge your phone or hairdryer. The only downside to this usually great site is they have stopped the fires at the caravans, we have friends who have a caravan on this site and use to look forward to having a glass of wine while sat out with a fire, that's all about camping, and feel its lost it's charm by doing this! Please reconsider the fire issue! Other than this it was a good but very wet weekend :)

Had a fantastic 3 days/nights at this lovely site after a great time here last year too.
Paid the warden upon arrival then told we could pitch anywhere on the field. Had a great view of Morecambe bay. There were 4 adults and 4 children (ages 8-11) in our party and had walks along the coast and through the woods. A nice walk into Silverdale where there are a few shops and a pub. Also there's a park just a bit further than the co-op which entertained the kids (when they weren't playing in the woods and on 'Monkey Island'.
The new shower/toilet block(with underfloor heating) were fantastic and always clean and stocked with loo roll, soap etc. There are plenty of toilets and free showers and hand dryers. Plug sockets were there to use your own hairdryer. The new washing up facilities are now indoors with 4 sinks and drainers.
There is a home made ice cream shop on the site which is only open at weekends, but the owner went out of her way to open it for us on the Tuesday when we told her we were disappointed that we had missed it.
A fantastic site to visit and an absolute bargain at only £12 a night for our 4 berth tent. Will definitely be visiting again and would highly recommend going.

Visited in August for the first time this year with my wife and 2 young children(3 & 4). The campsite is in a stunning location over looking the bay which produces some beautiful sunsets. Just a short walk through a lovely wooded area and your on the sands of the bay.
The facilities are the best I have come across on a campsite, the showers are roomy and hot. They are very clean and well maintained.
The children had lots to do, playing with other children, playing on the campsite and regular walks to the beach rock pooling and building sand castles etc.
The home made ice cream was delicious and is sold on the campsite.
The local area is very nice too, we ventured out for a drive one evening and fell upon The New Inn in Yealand. Really nice food and friendly staff, kids menu very good too.

We stayed here for two nights (fri-sat). On arrival we paid the warden who has a caravan on site. We were told to pitch anywhere.
There were 3 kids (4, 7 and 9) and 4 adults. Kids were soon buzzing around playing. Lots of kids on site which is good.
No fires even in fire pits but no problem and it didn't spoil it.
Lovely site with lovely views over the bay.
Shower block was close to all pitches and they were always spotless and plenty of cubicles.
Ice cream shop on site. Couple of pubs in silver dale.
Lovely walk down to the beach (not golden sands but kids loved it). All in all we will be going back because whilst I've been to better sites the kids really loved it and keep asking to go back. Judging from the trees leaning toward the site I assume it is pretty windy here generally but it wasn't bad when we were there.
Excellent site. Would recommend
