Dog Friendly Safari Tent Curlew at Bleasdale, Lancashire | Cottage in Bleasdale
3 Bedroom Cottage in Preston, Bleasdale
Nestled in the beautiful Lancashire countryside, between the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales, Curlew is one of five safari tents set in a wonderfully quiet corner of Forest of Bowland. Peaceful, unspoilt and wonderfully remote, with winding lanes, working farms, open fells and endless views, it’s the kind of place where you instantly switch off and enjoy the fresh air. With nature all around, wildlife to spot and even the River Brock passing by, it's a natural adventure playground for family and friends to explore and enjoy together.
Each tent at our Lantern & Larks locations, accommodates six guests across three bedrooms. There is one king size room, one twin room and one bunk bedroom. Inside, there is an open plan living area with a spacious kitchen featuring a double gas hob, a dining table, a comfortable seating area and a wood-burning stove. Each tent also has private facilities with running water, as well as its own outdoor seating area with a firepit and unlimited logs included. Our sites are off-grid, and we provide rechargeable lanterns and hot water bottles to keep you cosy in the evenings - though it’s always worth packing for a little bit of everything when it comes to British weather.
About Bleasdale
Our Bleasdale Lantern & Larks glamping site sits above a private stretch of the River Brock, which is always a favourite with families. Children can spend hours paddling in the water, building dams, spotting sticklebacks or exploring along the riverbank.
There’s a woodland to wander through, with plenty of space for den building, running around and getting outdoors. There’s also an open grassy area near the tents where children can play football, run around or enjoy outdoor games. Many guests bring a kite or garden games with them, especially when there’s plenty of space to make the most of it. We also keep a selection of board games in the honesty shop for guests to borrow during their stay.
From your tent, you can head straight out into the Forest of Bowland using the local footpath network. There’s a stone circle around a 20-minute walk away and beyond that, plenty of walking routes across the Bowland Fells. It’s a very peaceful part of Lancashire, with open views, quiet country lanes and very little traffic, ideal for walking, cycling or simply spending time outside. Cycle to the nearby Beacon Fell Country Park from your tent, or to the pretty village of Chipping with its pubs, cafes and ice cream shop! If this seems a little hard work, there is a business hiring electric bicycles located on the estate.
There are local horse-riding centres close by and they specialise in taking riders on treks round the local riding network.
After a day exploring, you can return to the quiet of your tent, light the firepit and settle in for the evening. Outdoor meals around the firepit, watching the sunset with a drink or two in hand, are all part of what makes staying here feel so special.
You’ll be too busy with the firepit, cooking outside, spotting wildlife, playing around or simply sitting still and enjoying it all to think about anything else.
Bleasdale is also well placed for exploring both the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District. A day trip to Windermere is always worth it. It can be lively, especially in summer, but there’s something incredibly calming about it.
