 First visit at Teesdale, and it certainly met expectations.
It's a lovely quiet site, with large flat pitches and very good, clean facilities. The wardens were very welcoming and helpful with our questions ref local amenities and places to eat, drink, walk and ride.
The walk into Barnards castle can be taken though the nearby woods, or by walking down the road which only has a path halfway down.
The town was bustling on the days we went, and had many pubs, cafes and shops, and even two butchers! We took a slightly hilly 12mile return cycle ride to Eggleston Hall Gardens and cafe.
The gardens arent very big but are very tranquil and there is also a nursery too, and the cafe serves very good food at a good price.
We also took the 6mile return riverside walk to Eggleston Abbey, which after a damp night was a little muddy.
It's such a pity it took us 3hrs to get to this site, else we would visit this lovely site more often

Spacious site with good views.
Usual CAMC standard and friendly staff.
Some road noise - choose your pitch carefully!
An easy 15 minute walk into Barnard castle and another 15 minutes to Bowes Museum.
Good playpark and lots of wildlife.

1st visit to CAMC site at Barnard castle as we have previously stopped at an independent site at Cotherstone just up the road. The site was busy but amazingly quiet once all vehicle manoeuvrers have taken place and the road outside quietens.
The walk via off road footpaths into Barnard castle isn't accessible for all and is hilly in part and uneven under foot but very convenient if you're fit and able.
The site itself is well maintained, the pitches looked level in the main although not guaranteed, some outfits were on levellers!
Busy at 1pm on a Friday but wardens worked efficiently and with military precision to ensure no one was kept waiting long.
Bit of a fathage using the MH service point if you are pitched at the end furthest away from Barnard castle as you have to go through the out barrier and come back in through the entrance barrier but it's in a layby section so you aren't blocking the road and the drive over drain is solid.
The chemical waste and water points are clean but if like us you don't cut across other people's pitches, you do have to zig zag a bit to access them.
And, like all CAMC sites, there is nowhere to safely put your cap and slider at the elsan point (I nearly lost mine down the hole after it blew off the small brick ledge), maybe a small box or basket on the side could be installed on the side.
All in all, a lovely site, would recommend.

Great site, on the outskirts of Barnard castle. Short walk into the town, which is well worth a visit.
The Teesdale Way is close by with excellent walking in both directions along the Tees.
Good base and a great site with modern facilities.

Site in a good location and a great layout, however the facilities are not up to the number of pitches on site, at 08:00 on the Friday we were queuing for showers and toilets (6 showers per gender for 95 pitches is somewhat lacking).
Also motorhome users feel they can do as they please running hosepipes across the road to fill the freshwater tanks (using standard pitches as fully serviced pitches) other people attaching hosepipes to the fresh water point to wash their new car ! the wardens were informed but did nothing

First visit to this site, although have been to Barnard castle many times.
Some Covid rules still apply: eg only one masked person in reception at a time. Toilets and showers were fully open although not all cubicles were being used due to it being low season.
Once you have chosen your pitch you return to reception, let them know your pitch number and you are given a fob for the barrier.
Most pitches are level but there are a few where you may need chocks to level from front to back. There are some pitches that may have road noise during the day. Some new pitches are being added and should be ready some time in the new year.
There are at least three CDPs and water/refuse points on the site.
Both TV reception and mobile signals are very good.
The staff were very friendly and the toilets/showers were warm and spotlessly clean.

Ideal location for visiting Barnard castle and surrounding area. Usual C&MC standard of facilities, large pitches and good TV reception.
Site is currently being extended with an additional 10 pitches for the 2022 season.
Tip when walking into Barnard castle, don’t walk along the road which has no pavement and fast moving traffic, but that the footpath (directly outside the site, waymarked ‘Footpath’) and take the delightful wooded riverside glen walk (Deepdale woods), crossing the road and directly into Barnard castle via the Teesdale Way.
Barnard castle has local shops, Morrison’s and Co-op plus family butchers, dog friendly pubs and fish and chip shops – all you could ever need and more besides.
Bowes Museum at Barnard castle is worth a visit however at £ 15. 50/pp (£ 13. 50 concessions) it a tad expensive for the items on display.
Eggleston Abbey is worth a visit, and can be accessed via the riverside walk, and Hury and Baldersdale Reservoirs plus the high moors above with stunning view on clear days are also worth a trip and taking in the county pubs at Romaldkirk and Cotherstone.
Certainly a recommended site if you like visiting and exploring the countryside.
