Red Bank Farm, in Bolton le Sands, near Carnforth, was named best small campsite at this year’s AA Camping and Caravan Awards.

The AA inspector’s verdict said: “The gently sloping grassy field with mature hedges at Red Bank Farm is right on the sea shore and set beside a RSPB reserve. This farm site has smart toilet facilities, a superb view across Morecambe Bay to the distant Lake District hills, and is popular with tenters. Archers Café is delightful, serving a good range of cooked food, including home-reared marsh lamb dishes, and has a new timbered alfresco eating area.”
