Date of Visit: April 2005 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: GLockley 3 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for one night on our way North to Scotland and found the welcome very friendly and the pitches good and level (very important if you're running a fridge on gas!). All caravan/motorhome pitches appeared to have electric hookup, but for some you need quite a long cable.

The site is a bit out of the way (the roads leading to it are quite narrow and winding) but the owners give very good directions over the phone. The site is quite small and quiet and seems to be mainly used by caravanners. It is very quiet at night which is good if you have young children.

Facilities are basic but very clean though only 2 showers - one male, one female - but as the site was quiet we had no problems with access, the hot water was plentiful and there is a power point in the shower block. Our top tip for anyone using this site is to make sure you have a decent torch, as the toilet/shower block is outside the main site, across a public footpath, in a farm outbuilding and you have to go down some uneven steps to get to it which can be a bit dicey at night.

As we only stayed one night, we didn't explore the local area much, but the site is reasonably close to Beamish Museum and the Metro Centre. There aren't really any facilities within walking distance though, so it is a good idea to stock up with necessities before you get there!

 Basic but pleasant small site with hardstandings (not very level). Toilets are a short walk across a cycle track (old railway line) and are simple but clean.

Convenient overnight stop for visiting Beamish, being about 15mins drive away. Also about 15mins drive to the Gateshead Metro Centre for shops and cinemas etc.
