Rawcliffe Country Club & Caravan Park in Lancashire
David Bellamy Conservation Award
Since being awarded the Gold award in 2005, we are striving to maintain this prestigious award. We currently have several on going projects relating to this including the cleaning and aeration of the pond, to which we added some fish in 2005 and since have all bred succesfully. A bat breeding project has been implemented with the help of the local Bat Conservation Group. We also have placed many bird boxes at various points around the caravan park. We would like to remind all our customers and future customers that we are a countryside park and efforts must be made to ensure that we are environmentally friendly to the surrounding countryside and wildlife.

2010 saw us enter Britain In Bloom for the first time and we were delighted to be awarded a Silver Medal at the first attempt in the Best Caravan Park Category, this was followed in 2011 with a silver gilt award.

The History of the hall
Rawcliffe Country Club & Caravan Park is an historic mansion, dating originally from 1154 A.D., and is situated in a secluded and unrivalled position overlooking the picturesque River Wyre and is approached by a sweeping carriage drive through well matured grounds. The Hall has many connections with famous historical figures including Oliver Cromwell, who with his army were on the march from Preston to Lancaster, they came through Elswick and district and over the ford just outside the hall gates. Fortunately for this monastic house, he missed it because of the surrounding trees.
We can boast to having our very own ghost 'Miss Kitty' a local peasant girl who was so favoured by one of the squires that when she died he erected a bronze statue on the ground in front of the hall. However the statue disappeared during the Second World War. There are many old photographs and documents relating to the hall in the lounge bar and snooker room showing how this grand old house once looked, with not very much changed to date.
