We stayed there in 1997. It was a bit of a hill to go down to get on site, but nothing unusual. We had an Abbey Dorset 2 berth towed by a Vectra.
The area itself is great for walking, particularly along the Roman Wall , just to the north. Much quieter than , eg the Lake District, so I am sure it will be well suited to dog walking.
The access road to the site is narrow, steep and with a bend in it but it can be managed with care. Nice site but it can get waterlogged easily if there is any prolonged rain. A great area if you're interested in the Roman history of Britain.

------------- Treat the earth well. It was not given to you by your parents. It was loaned to you by your children.
i live only a few miles from the site,although i`ve not stayed there,i was walking down the road in questiis on,yes its bendy but there is wider parts in the road for passing,however its only a short distance.
i am going to try it out myself this year,if i visit the site before you,i`ll leave my personal opinion.
ps.the road itself is a quite road,only used by a few tourists,caravanners & the farmer next to the entrance.
enjoy :)
