Camping pod (hot tub)

Liked Quiet location .Friendly staff (David). Pod was clean. No problems with checking in. Great that you got a bag of logs for each night. The hot tub was hot and ready to go for our arrival. Nice size hot tub .

Disliked One shower for the whole site. Toilets were ready for an update and the sink area to wash up. Mattress could have been a little thicker. Maybe a few hooks inside the pod to save a bit of room .

Local attractions

If you’ve come along with an eye on getting active, there’s plenty to keep you moving nearby: a golf course and fly fishing area are within a five-minute drive, as are a go-kart track and a paintballing centre for those with something a bit more adrenaline-fuelled in mind. For more of a recce of your rural surrounds, take the nippers off to Down At The Farm (five minutes’ drive) for all sorts of animal encounters including pig washing, bunny cuddling and lamb feeding. Wilder beasts can often be spotted flitting about at Rainton Meadows nature reserve (15 minutes). Being so close to the coast you won’t want to miss a stroll around the seaside town of Seaham (10 minutes), taking in its heritage centre and seeking out the World War I tribute sculpture known fondly as Tommy… and then hitting the beach of course. And you won’t want to miss a day trip to Durham either – a 20-minute drive should get you up there to visit the cathedral, castle and botanic gardens and take a ramble by the river. Beamish (the Living Museum of the North) is 25 minutes away if you fancy coming face to face with a bit more history.
