Help  We're going up this way at the weekend. I've found two sites with great reviews on the 'camp site search', but just can't decide which one.

Hooks House Farm, Robin Hoods Bay (which I fancy cos of the sea views), or Serenity in Hinderwell village. We are a couple in our 50's who like space (so would our camping neighbours if they have to put up with hubbys loud snoring!), so prefer a site which doesn't get too busy in mid July with tents packed close together.

We had also considered Bay Ness Farm, but the sound of the rough road to the site put hubby off as he worries about his car too much (he has heart condition so we would have to take the car back & forth down the rough road everytime we went out as he can't walk very far). Is the road really that bad?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  

The road at Bay Ness is not that bad but it is of a strange construction. We stayed last year and got a Taxi back from the centre of Robinhoods bay late at night. The taxi did about 40 mph on the road so it can't be that bad.

The road is constuted of concrete block which vibtate slightly when you drive over them. They won't cause any damage but it is a little strange the first time you go over them.

Spectcular sea views, we really enjoyed this site.

Any more questions let me know and I will try and help.

Thanks for the replies everyone. Will show this thread to hubby tomorrow & get him to make a decision.

One more question please Mark   Does Bay Ness have facility for freezing cooler blocks? If not, do the EHU pitches have such a good view as Carla shows (wonderful piccie Carla), or are they sort of at the back of the site? 

Still can't get him to make up his mind  We're going on Sunday, so I don't want to leave it too late to book a pitch. MEN  grrrrr.

Any other opinions welcome, thanks.
