Why stay here ...

Stoney Leach Nurseries CL is ideally situated for a restful break and a chance to explore an interesting and attractive part of northern England.

The site is for adults only, and is well-maintained with spacious hard-standing pitches each with a generous grassed area and hedge. An additional area of grass has been planted with trees and shrubs and adds to the open feel of the site which has views over the surrounding farmland as far as the Pennines.

Many of our visitors are happy to spend their time sitting on the site, maybe watching the activity on the adjoining nursery, but if you fancy something more energetic there are plenty of field paths from the site and within a few miles. Maps and leaflets are provided. Coarse fishing, horse riding and diving are all available locally. The towns of Wigan, Chorley and Ormskirk have excellent shops as do the seaside resort of Southport and the cities of Preston, Manchester and Liverpool, all within easy reach by car or train, nearest station 2 miles, bus stop 1 mile.

The nearest pub serving food is about 1.25 miles away and comes highly recommended by our guests, as does the local farm shop, about half a mile from the site.

Stoney Leach Nurseries
This was a unexpected chance booking. On our way to Scotland and decided to leave an extra day to the journey. Looked for a site near to the M6 around Wigan. Found Stoney Leach Nursery CL. They unexpectedly had a cancellation so booked for the night. In my haste to copy the directions to the site stupidly screen shot the wrong CL site, then after asking directions, given three different routes all not suitable with caravans. Phoned the site in desperation. The owner could not have helped more dispute the poor phone coverage and multiple calls, established we were miles away. He drove to where we were and led us tot he site and could not have done more to make us feel welcome and hide my shame. Moral- Check details given by site owners before leaving and follow them. A lesson learned and endorsed by my wife when she has calmed down enough to speak to me again. The site is small, quiet and beautifuly cared for. If you are lucky enough to find a space well worth a visit.

A great little CL

Stoney Leach Nurseries
A lovely site with extremely friendly owners. The site is secured by a chain and lock and you are given a key so that you can come and go whenever you like. The site is well situated off the M6, although you can hardly hear it from the site, and is within easy reach of a number of centres of interest. All the pitches are hard standing. We loved our stay and we'll be back next year!

Excellent little CL

Stoney Leach Nurseries
This is our 1sr experience of a CL and access to sites like this are the reason we joined CAMC. This site is peaceful and quiet and the setting is lovely. It's so quiet at night. We were greeted when we arrived and given a key to the gate then left to our own devices after this. The site is set in the grounds of a nursery with enough space for the dog to have a good run. Access was easy. We will return

Beautiful stopover site

Stoney Leach Nurseries
We have used this sites a few times on our way south from Scotland to England. Very easy access from the motorways and you wouldn’t believe it was so close as very little noise. Site is beautifully landscaped and very peaceful. It also has recycling facilities. Think it would be handy for using as a base to visit Merseyside and other places nearby. A great find

One of the best CLs on the network

Stoney Leach Nurseries
We stayed here from 18 April 2021 for 4 nights. What a lovely, well laid out and well maintained site. Everything is what you expect in a perfect site. Well maintained and easy to use. The owners have even provided hand sanitiser in multiple places. Views are brilliant, lots of wildlife including wrens, pheasant, squirrels. Good walks on well marked footpaths. Short walk into the village where there are buses into Wigan and Preston every hour (Route 113). The owners are pleasant and helpful. The site is locked day and night, and you are given a key. Toogood Farm Shop half a mile away. Well stocked with bread, chilled and frozen foods, and much more. Good phone signal (useful as a Hotspot for internet) and TV signal - you can see Winter Hill. And all for £14 a night. Doesn't get better than this. We will be back.
