Date of Visit: May 2008 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Andyparry 10 reviews from this member

 A small and basic site surrounded by mature conifers, just off the A68 making it idea for touring Durham, Newcastle the North Pennines or a stop off on the way further North.

A line of 6 Amps electric hook-ups run down a slopping field just to the right of the site entrance.

Each pitch is marked by a pair of levelled paving slabs, providing ample space between neighbours.

Toilet-waste and waste-water are at one central point, half way down the field. Fresh water taps are available between every other electric hook-up point.

Toilet, shower and dishwashing facilities are in one block at the top, about half way along the site, close to the main tent pitches.

There is a short dog walk through a line of trees and two sets of children’s swings; infant at the top and the older ones at the bottom.

In summary, a good simple site for touring the local area, but be aware of the limited mains power supply.

Reviewer: Proth 2 reviews from this member

 Had a wonderful 3 nights. The toilet block is kept clean and the showers are adequate, the dustbin area is separated for recycling. The site is a large field with touring caravans one end, tents in the middle and a few static vans at the other behind some trees, surrounded by conifers so no problems with wind. The site is on a slight slope but not much so no problem. Large area for the kids to play balls, frizbys etc. A very quiet place in the beautiful countryside of County Durham, Bemish, Hadrian's Wall etc. Close at hand. All the shops you need at Consett 5 miles away. The site owners are friendly and recommended a meal at the Bay Horse at Wolsingham very nice a la carte meal and also pub meals if you want. Site fee of £14 per night for two adults and two kids in a four man tent.

 As stated by fellow previous campers, if it's quiet you want, then this is the place, set in the heart of Durham countryside a short distance from the A68, this site is so quiet and peaceful. The site is surrounded by mature conifers on all sides and there is protection from any wind not that we had any.
The owner walks you to your pitch, (as there was only one other tent on the site we could pitch anywhere we wanted), then leaves you to enjoy your stay. Facilities were basic but adequate, plenty of hot water for washing and dishes, showers are by token at 20p each for about 5 mins. There is a swing set for younger kids and a massive field for other activities.
Rabbits, squirrels and deer were seen on our visit on the site, my kids loved it. We will definitely revisit this site. 


Date of Visit: July 2006 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Jwoody 6 reviews from this member

 This was our first visit to what is a FABULOUS site. There were two caravans including ours and one tent on this site for all our stay (4 nights).
 
The showers and toilets are basic and look as though there were last modernised in the 1950s but there is plenty of hot water and it is clean.
 
The play area is just a couple of swings but our 4 year old had a brilliant time playing in the woods.  These are very safe and surrounded by a fence so no fear of them getting onto the road.  The owner is very friendly and walks you to your pitch.  We did have hook up although only 5amp.
 
This is an ideal location to visit Diggerland and Beamish (both only 15 mins away).
 
I would highly recommend this site although be aware it does not take twin wheeler caravans.

Reviewer: Moggy45 1 review from this member

 We've stayed several times at this campsite - a field surrounded by trees and farmland. It's beautiful countryside, it's peaceful. It's a no stress campsite. The facilities are basic - just toilet blocks and a washing up room in fact, but they are clean. There are a few hookups for caravans, none for tents that I know of. The shops are a car ride away, the sightseeing is plentiful. The coast is less than an hour away - visit Bamburgh Castle, or Holy Island, Beadnell or Whitley Bay. Head towards Hexham and visit an abundance of roman ruins and museums as well as some beautiful towns and villages. Drive inland to lovely places like Allendale. Visit Alnwick Castle or Bowes Museum (with its automaton swan). Go and see the Life Science Centre in Newcastle (and nice shops too!). The options are pretty endless and you are well placed at this site.

Reviewer: Kafi 2 reviews from this member

 Great campsite, quiet and tranquil, huge field with only us and a few others. Some of the time only us, kids could run and run! Basic but clean washrooms no laundrette but one within an easy distance by car. Friendly site owners were on hand if needed but left you to enjoy your time. Good basic play area. If you want a simple and quiet break this is the place to go!

Reviewer: Rogsheff 1 review from this member

 Was here for four nights, would echo other submission certainly quiet. That wasn't a problem for us very relaxing but others seemed not to like, one family paid for two nights but left after one without telling the site reception. The site is well sheltered and looked after, the faccilities are a little old but clean. good access to Durham(20 mins)and north east. If you have young children (4-12) recommend visit to Diggerland but be carefull you can get carried away with your spending

If you are looking for peace and quite, this is the place for you. We spent 2 nights here and the grass is well manicured and there is plenty of space for the kids to play. The site is surrounded by trees and at £8 per night you can't go wrong. Ideal for walkers and visiting Beamish Museum.
