I can’t recommend this place enough. The staff are second to none, they were so understanding of my autistic son this week. We ate in the cafe every day and they didn’t once bat an eyelid at me changing the sides with the dishes he ordered and asking for beans to be in pots instead of on the plate etc etc. All of the cafe staff, reception, shop and our lovely wardens in the motorhome next to us were incredible. The shower blocks were spotless every time I went in, the pool staff were great too. Amy behind the bar was a delight. We felt very welcome and will definitely be back. Good pitches, good facilities, good location, amazing staff. Thank you!
I've been visiting Holgates, Silverdale for decades. The location is absolutely excellent, very child friendly place. The staff, Simon, Paul and the team are so friendly and would do absolutely anything to help and make you feel welcome and at home. The staff are so well disciplined with regards to friendliness and keeping the place clean. They all go above and beyond. Just like home for me and my family.
I look forward to many more years of this. Thank you to you all.

Stayed in one of the statics on site. Very clean and well maintained. The facilities are very well looked after and the site is huge.
The swimming pool can get busy but this is to be expected during school holidays.
A slight word of warning, expect a few windy single lane country roads in the way in (just a word of warning as an ex-touring-caravan'er) but overall I cannot fault this site.
I have always loved this site, facilities great, food in resturant good,toilets always clean and staff always pleasant. However, this visit, I couldn't believe the number of Holgates vehicles going up and down, from early morning, through the touring pitches it seemed quite ridiculous. I understand there has to be cleaning and maintenance but is it necessary for so many vans ? Another minor quibble tables on outside seating area hadn't been dried off even though it was around 3pm. Just minor points as the site is brill.
Another fantastic Weekend. Always clean and excellent services. Highly recommend coming here for a weekend. I did however have one issue.
Firstly was the bar staff. Who are lovely, but spend way to much time talking and getting orders wrong. I had to wait for them to finish having a chat and for them to notice me, so I can could place my order, which they got wrong.
I am forgiving and understand that we can get lost in conversations.
Just love visiting this very special place at the heart of Silverdale by the beautiful Arnside coast. The customer service is of the best I have ever received, all the staff are so welcoming and friendly which is a credit to them. This is an ideal place to stay if you are hoping to visit the Lake District, with both Windermere and Ambleside only an hours drive away. The food is always tasty and is served quickly, with the restaurant selling a range of food, from pizzas and burgers , to a selection of sandwiches and fish and chips. The pool facilities are always immaculate, with a relaxing sauna , steam room and jacuzzi, it is almost like visiting a spa, and for £8 it is absolutely faultless and reasonable. I have stayed here before , with my boyfriend and his family during November, which was a great time to come as it was bonfire night and the display was amazing. Will continue to visit here ! Absolutely incredible place. Welcoming place for families and all ages would recommend
Great site with great facilities and location. Site fees are high but justified by the swimming pool, play parks etc
However, the site is really lacking EV charging points, which in 2023 has become a fundamental requirement, and extra revenue stream for the site. It looked as though at least 10% of visitors had EV's but are not being catered for.

We have just returned from a 4 night stay (jubilee weekend) at Holgates Silverdale.
Two adults a 5 year old and a 13 year old and everyone of us enjoyed our stay!
We were on the touring site and what a touring site it was!! Fantastic pitches, great size and all in a great location for different reasons such as close to the park, playing field or a fantastic view!
The toilet block was spotless! The cleaners work endlessly to ensure the high standards of cleanliness is kept up, you constantly see the toilets and site being cleaned.
We used the on-site pool which was lovely! If I had one negative about our whole stay it would be the lifeguards who look like they are being held agains their will!
Our youngest had a fantastic time taking part in the sports day that the site held, the members of staff who were running this were absolutely amazing! The kids all kept engaged and had fun!
The beach is a lovely ten minutes stroll away and there are so many walks around the area.
We never used the bar area as children under 16 are not allowed in so we can’t comment on the nighttime entertainment that was on.
We had torrential rain during one night we expected the site to be flooded but to our surprise the sites drainage system handle it well and by dinner the site was completely dry!
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this site and we will be returning in the future.
Great holiday park within a comfortable drive of Morecambe and the South Lakes.
On site there is a restaurant and bar, swimming pool, soft play and arcade. Loads for kids to do. Beach right across the road. Perfect on a sunny day. Stayed in both the static caravans and the glamping pods, both excellent.
Brilliant site been here 4 years now and grandkids love it.
Staff really friendly and helpful.
Food is good but not keen on the new menu launched today, 10 main fishes and 5 are spicy, choice is poor.
