Westhoughton Caravan Storage - Bolton

Emma

Very safe and secure yard, hard flat ground perfect for for our caravan with no mud to sink in. Very clean yard with beautiful surroundings:) Excellent service from Dave who helped us out getting our caravan back to the yard as our van broke down, complete life saver. Can't fault anything, A* service so far 🙂

Dave is great. Helped us out a few times when our motorhome wouldn't start he got us on our way to enjoy our holidays. The site is safe and secure. Easy to arrange pickup/drop off.

Safe secure caravan storage, though access is along a bit of a bumpy track - as someone has already mentioned. Close and easy access to motorway whether going north or south. Reasonable price and can be paid in two installments, April and October, which is really useful. We've had no issues with access (or owner) even though one visit was quite short notice.

A very secure location to store your motorhome or caravan
I have stored my van here for about 8 years I have always been met with a professional service and attitude, I have never had a problem of any description, in fact he is very helpful. One time my motorhome wouldn’t start and Dave came over with his truck and helped me to jump start it with his own leads, great bloke.
He is very vigilant and site security is very high on Daves priorities and as such he operates an efficient text message service to access the location, I think the way this text system operates is brilliant and gives me total peace of mind as it means folk can’t come and go as they please. He doesn’t give anybody a key for the security gate and I feel this is absolutely the correct thing to do.
Dave always replies to my texts within the hour and I’ve never been refused access i.e. there is always somebody on site.
Ok the approach track is bumpy but surely this is a good deterrent for prospective chancers.
I would definitely recommend this storage location for your motorhome or caravan.

One of the worst experiences I've had in my life.

Usually if I don't like a service, I just will avoid it in future rather than writing something negative, but I would really like to encourage others to avoid this place and the nasty man who owns it.

I paid to store my camper van there for a year, and despite saying that access can be any time, in reality this is far from the case. You need to agree access in advance via text message, and whilst it's easy if it's in the morning, if you want to access the van later in the afternoon or evening there was a high chance I'd be out of luck as the owner would have social plans.

He was one of the rudest people I've had the misfortune to meet in my life. If I didn't hear what he was saying to me, or vice versa he would eff and jeff straight off the bat, which was actually quite threatening to me as a single woman. Given he had dogs barking in the yard and machinery on the go, it seems normal to me that you might need to repeat yourself but this seemed to flip a switch with very horrible results.

He didn't seem to have any concept of customer service or politeness, and while I understand that a farmer's main objective isn't to be kind necessarily, to be told to go fXxck myself and told I'm stupid because I hadn't moved the van to the right area seems a bit excessive.

When I moved my van to a new storage place the owner there said I was not the first to have been in this situation so it's well known locally that he's not a nice man.

I wonder if he might actually have mental health problems he was so rude. I can't see any other explanation.

Financially, he didn't provide any receipt for payment and he wanted extra money if you didn't pay him in cash. This seems a bit dodgy to me.

Finally, price-wise, the place I have moved it to is 5 mins drive away from whn caravan storage, and is a comparable price, with genuine unlimited 24 hours access.

So for other reviewers to suggest that this horrible man is somehow cheaper than others, or in a better location, seems to suggest ignorance of the facts at best or potentially something more disingenuous.

If i could give this guy less than one star then i would.

He doesn't deserve to even have a business with his terrible attitude and the way he treats customers.

On Saturday, unfortunately, we had a change of plans that couldn't have been planned or avoided. This meant that our Caravan needed to come home a day earlier than planned.... i called him with 3 hours notice to advise what had unfortunately happened to be met with him laughing and ridiculing me down the phone.

He could tell i was distressed and somehow seemed to enjoy the fact that he was being so obstructive and laughing at me. I explained that i was a single mother with 2 under 5 children in the car with me and his nasty response was... "sleep at a services with them and then call me at 8am in the morning and i will see if i can do anything" - Absolutely disgusting!!

He has ZERO compassion, ZERO understanding and ZERO flexibility.

If you are looking for somewhere to park your caravan you may as well look straight past this one as you literally have to beg and plead with him to get in or out... it genuinely is one of the worst customer service experiences i have ever had and whats worse is i dont think he cares.

His answer to everything was "MY LAND ...MY RULES" sorry but all i did was ask to park up, i didn't ask for an organ donation. Hopefully he will be left with his land empty as people will read this and see how disgusting his practices are.

Take a look at the other negative reviews - there is definitely a trend.

AVOID THIS PLACE, the owner is rude & aggressive.
The long bumpy track to the scruffy farm is full of deep potholes & literally shakes your caravan to bits.
Access is terrible & only allowed when it suits him, security consists of a wooden farm gate & some dogs. Much better & cheaper places than this locally

I have stored my van on this site for the past 2 years and never had any problems. It is very safe and secure and gives me peace of mind as the area is remote, You have plenty of room for your vehicle to be parked. The security is one of the high prioritises for the owner to ensure that the persons on the land are there for their own vehicle, I find this a professional way to work and this also gives me reassurance that my vehicle is secure. I have also found the owner to be very accommodating he has offered me a great service I cant recommend him enough for the service he delivers, he has gone above and beyond to support me, he is a lovely person, very professional and polite and always willing to help where he can, Highly Recommended to anyone.
