Recommended sites in Southport

Post by HannahEBO » Sun Jul 07, 2013 10:15 am

We will be spending a weekend in Southport soon and would like to find a smaller, more basic site than the huge static / caravan parks which are the only options I've found so far.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks

Used to go to the Leisure lakes a few years ago, a bit rough around the edge's(needs a few quid spending on it.) The Riverside is in my eyes is afar better site, super clean and the staff know they stuff so pay yer money and take a chance :lol: ttfn neil

Did you ask on Mumsnet?
Just back from Southport and people are camped at the edge of the Marine lake next to the Scout building, its a nice spot if you are interested I can ask about and see how its booked?

Thanks for the replies and suggestions.

The Marine Drive site looks good but unfortunately we aren't CCC members.

Will give Ainsdale a try.

Thanks again.
