Decent spots to stay in the van near Preston?

I'm on a 4 day course soon in Preston and don't fancy the 2 hr commute from home. Any recs for somewhere to stay in the van - campsites, pubs with overnight parking? I've seen the lay-by stopovers and dodgy car parks on the usual apps. Would rather go legit for peace of mind.

This is 30 minutes south of Preston, in a great setting. Added bonus is the on-site brewery. It’s just over the hill from us, so I’m more familiar with the brewery than the accommodation.

Brewery tap room sounds ideal, but last orders at 7pm . Being near Rivi Pike is a bonus though, as the course is cycling related, and could get out on the MTB.
Thanks

Just up the lane to Healy Nab as well, so spoilt for choice for evening riding.
