 Lovely site, clean toilets and showers.
Managed to order taxis to get us into Durham but you can walk it I believe which can take 1 - 1.5hrs,
Reception sold some items like milk etc

Just off the main A1/M1, top of the slip road, a couple of hundred metres and you are there.
Really well placed for stopovers travelling North or South or for visiting Durham.
We had booked on for 2 nights but we cancelled the 2nd due to constant road noise from the A1/M1. For others it won't be a problem and we spoke to others who said was worth the noise for convenience to visit Durham
Have to say that the site wardens are the best we have come across on CAMC in striking a mix between dealing with Covid restrictions and running a caravan park. They have closed some showers and loos for social distancing but nowhere near as many as some other sites. They are cleaning twice a day but not needing to extend cleaning times as other CAMC sites are
Shop on site open and stocked, again unlike other CAMC, it really felt more like a regular campsite due to the efforts and attitude if the link lovely wardens.
There is a really nice dog walk that takes you down to the river from where you can walk into the city.

OK for a stopover as straight off A1. Difficult road to cross to get to Park & Ride.
Pleasant 3 mile river walk into Durham but can be very muddy.
Some pitches need a longer cable for electric so we had to move.
If the Caravan Club were more flexible with the pitching of small campervans, this wouldn't have been a problem.

Friendly welcome to clean and tidy club site. Well kept standard club facilities. The site is close to A1 so there is some traffic noise, a steady hum so you get used to it.
Handy for park and ride to Durham and about 30 minutes to Newcastle. Loads to see and do within an hours drive including the coast and Hadrians wall.
Dog walk on site and riverside walk just off site. No local amenities but basics available in reception.
I'm sure we will return as we have family in the area.

Easy to find off m1. Nice size level pitch usual cmc facilities.
You can hear traffic but didn't bothers us but some might find it annoying. The reason we wouldn't come back to site other than stop over is trying to get across road is to dangerous.
Road too busy and travelling too fast. Got the bus twice that involves crossing road £3 return.

Stayed here for 3 nights to visit Durham and en route to Northumberland. Well laid out site and very friendly wardens. Facilities are very good. As previously stated there is road noise from the A1 but not intrusive.
Very quiet in December. The park and ride is a 20 minute walk away but you have to cross the busy A1 roundabout. £2 each return and senior bus passes are accepted

Very conveniently situated for motorway. There is a steady rumble from the motorway traffic, but it's steady so not difficult to ignore.
Open all year, so very handy.
Possibly not a site to stay on for your holiday but great for touring.
Immaculate as all CMC sites.

Stayed at this site to visit the city of Durham. The site is very close to the A1(M) and The A690. It is pretty noisy from background traffic. Pitches are quite small. Durham centre is more than 2 miles away. I felt the site was more of a transit site for those driving North/South than one for staying to visit the city.
You can walk from the site along the river to the city centre about two and a half miles. There is a park and ride very close by on the other side of the A1(M). It is closed on Sundays and Bank Holidays though. If you get there before 1100 on a Sunday or Bank Holiday there is lots of free parking on the outskirts of town.
The facilities were all good as you would expect from a Caravan Club site. At almost £29 per night over a Bank Holiday weekend I felt it was too expensive for the above reasons.
We did receive a warm welcome from the site staff.

Delightful site just of juntion 62 on the A1m, ideally located to visit local museums and tourist attractions.
Very cheerful and helpful wardens, W/Cs showers spotlessly clean.
Lots of flowers in bloom in pots around the site giving the site a homely feel, long drive way into the site.
Good size motor home service area with plenty of water/waste service areas. Washing Machine and drier currently at £4 a wash.
Ideal site to stop over if your heading up the east coast, the A19 is easily reached via the A 690.

We visited this site on the 27 march for 4 nights, we chose this site as it was the nearest to beamish museum. We had a warm welcome from the owners we had the choice of pitches In the colour band for our motorhome lovely spacious pitch on gravel quite level enough space for a awning and car if needed.
Plenty of filling points and waste disposal bins and recycling bins and crates for glass bottles, I have never been to such tidy clean service areas. The toilet block was superb very clean lovely and warm very spaciousness 4 hairdryers separate cubicles with sinks in if you wanted privacy showers spacious clean and hot.
Washing up room, laundry room, baby room. Small children's play area very busy site with been so close to a1 and you can hear the A1 but not too intrusive. There is a small warm well lit information room and a few essentials in shop.
It is a fairly long walk to bus stops across slip roads from a1 and no park and rides on bank holidays. I would come again its a good base to tour the area with a car. Well done durham grange caravan park.
