The winner of the AA Most Improved Campsite is Bridge House Marina & Caravan Park in Garstang, Lancashire.

It’s a family-run site set by the Lancaster Canal and it has a new games room and a new fish pond.

The park has been described by an AA inspector as having “a themed café serving local produce beside the Lancaster Canal”.

All winners of the awards will feature in the 55th Edition of the AA Caravan & Camping Guide.

The destinations that feature in the guide have been inspected and rated by AA professional inspectors, grading sites from one to five Pennants based on their facilities and hospitality.
