Hi We spent 2 days last week at Charity Farm at Wrightington which is a couple of mile off the M6 north of Wigan.
It is a large equestrian centre but has 4 pools with excellant fishing, Carp up to 21 lb and I caught about 20 Tench all between 2 and 3 lb plus the usual Roach, Chub and Perch,
Unfortunately most of the pitches on the caravan site are taken with long stay vans so at most they have 6 spare, they are mostly hard standing all with electric. Fees are £10 a night inc elecy. Toilets are nothing to write home about, 2 WC's each with sinks and one shower each, basic but clean.
There is no shop on site and none in the immediate area but there are some good walks onsite around the cross country course which goes through a bluebell wood.
Very good for fishing with a very friendly owner.
