 And nearly one year later, few were back here. The facilities are still as clean, the Site as quiet as you could ask for with plenty of space in the semi circle of 5 vans.

A very welcoming Site, we had an organised walk from Barnard castle on our last day and we were able to leave our van on the pitch, disconnected, until we had completed at no extra charge.

Plenty to see and do in Barnard castle and we were able to use the bus up to Middleton in Teesdale and walk the Tees Railway Path.

At 28 pounds with EHU, very good value.

 A lovely, welcoming Site. This was the first time we’d stayed here, it won’t be the last.

There are 5 hard standings in a semicircle facing the facilities block and ~15 spaces with ehu in the grassy area behind.

It’s a very quiet Site, especially in late October, but with an ideal location just outside town - about 35 minutes walk away.

Facilities aren’t glistening or brand new but they are clean and with some of the best showers we’ve come across.

At £28/night for van, ehu and a hard standing it’s excellent value for money much better than the two nearby Sites operated by C& C or C &M Clubs.

We’ll be back.

 We stayed at Pecknell Farm over the Easter weekend and had a great time there.

It's a lovely, well maintained site with welcoming owners,

Great showers,

An easy 1. 5 miles walk along the track into town and in a great location to explore the local area on foot or by bike.

 We turned up without booking after really bad and red reception at CCC site up the road!

Excellent site, very well maintained, really peaceful, 1. 5 miles from Barnard castle to walk round lovely town ;

Working farm so dogs must be walked off main site which is fine, lovely hot showers, toilet block we’ll looked after and very clean

Only downside is no emptying point for motorhomes and no bins on site - need to walk down steep lane to dispose of rubbish which is fine but we just hung on to rubbish and disposed on way out

Reviewer: Cochyn 3 reviews from this member

 Lovely site with huge pitches and walking distance through fields or path that follows the river-bit more challenging but well worth it.

Toilets dated but clean.

Could do with rewording a few of the posters around the site as it came across as don’t do this don’t do that.

Other than that fab site

Reviewer: Hoedown 88 reviews from this member

 This is a well-laid out peaceful site. 5 gravelled hard-standings used mainly by motorhomes as well as a large field with about 15 grass pitches.

Water taps nearby, as well as a wash-up sink and dump facilities.

The only downside was the rubbish/recycling bins were quite a walk back down the lane so we saved ours to dump on the way out.

Facilities were still not open owing to covid restrictions so can't comment on them.

Lots of walks in the area which we did not try out due to the rain.

At £16 pn this is a good cheaper alternative to the club sites across the road.

Reviewer: Banjo3 1 review from this member

 Without doubt the quietest site we've ever stayed on!

Site is immaculate, we hadn't booked, but the owner Ann was very pleasant, laid back and helpful.

Can't fault it, lovely area, nice half hour walk to Barnard castle.

No facilities on site for youngsters, but ours have flown the nest, so that suits us fine.

Very reasonable rates too, Thank you Ann ( and daughter!)
