Long journey?
For many customers it's a considerable journey to Lancashire, so you might consider combining the pick up with your first short break.
Cumbria, The Lakes & the Yorkshire Dales are not too far away, so it's a great chance to take a few days to relax & get to know your Go-Pod.
Many new owners decide to stay a night at the local Willowbank Touring Park before heading home. This seaside site is clean, well appointed and with friendly & helpful staff. You'll be able to settle in & start playing with your new caravan right away. Then, should you have any questions, the guys at Red Lion will be nearby & open for advice the following day.
Mention Go-Pods for a 10% discount on stays between Monday & Thursday. |
There's a Premier Inn near by too: Premier Inn - Scarisbrick - click here for website.
