Elder camping pod (no pets)

Liked: Rural farm location, beautiful scenery. Private parking near to cabins. Cute, clean, equipped accommodation. Local info helpful. Wi-fi. No TV but you really appreciate the scenery, walks, peace and sheep.

Disliked: As an older couple we found the bed a bit of a challenge.

Oak camping pod (no pets)

Liked: Great location with a nice walk in either direction to a village with pub, shop and chippy. Excellent cabin which was well furnished and spotless. Really good shower in the en-suite. Kitchenette had everything needed and there was an option for an outdoor fire pit offered at a small charge. Outdoor area perfectly laid out with picnic table and chairs. Nice and secluded with a wonderful view. Excellent secure parking. Lovely welcome on arrival and great information pack detailing local walks and amenities. Wi-Fi not really used but good mobile reception.

Disliked: A lamp would be useful rather than main ceiling lights in an evening.

Recommend to friends Visit again

A great safe and quiet break for solo's, couples or families.

Elder camping pod (no pets)

Liked: A peaceful setting with beautiful views down the valley. The three pods are well spaced out and angled for privacy with planting either side helping that further. Appreciated the noise reduction rules that apply to maintain the sense of tranquility for all. Well equipped pod with all you could need in terms of kitchen equipment, bedding, towels etc. Immaculately clean inside.

Disliked: I understand why, but the mattresses on the beds were quite thin making it a very hard to sleep. Would be handy to have soap provided in the bathroom. This isn’t something that folk tend to bring with them. No comfortable seating in the pod if the weather isn’t great and you’re stuck inside watching the television. The curvature of the walls due to the design of the pod is the limiting factor here which I appreciate.

Hazel camping pod (pet friendly)

Liked: We had a lovely stay here. The setting is beautiful, very peaceful and Sarah was super helpful when we requested some logs for the fire pit. The kids loved the swingball and also the DVDs were a great touch for bedtime!! The private bit of river was great for tossing stones and we had it all to ourselves. We would definitely recommend. Thanks for a fab stay!

Disliked: Nothing

Oak camping pod (no pets)

Liked: The location was great for the children, they enjoyed wandering and exploring in the wood as the area was extremely safe, except for the nettles! Sarah our host was lovely, friendly and very helpful and the cabin was cosy and had everything you need.

Disliked: We brought bedding, but not quilts. Just the bedding and the children fortunately brought their own pillows

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your comment regarding bedding. We have made a slight modification to the listing description to hopefully avoid any future confusion. Bedding is an added extra and is priced per double bed. The hire includes duvets, pillows, covers, towels and bath mat. We do not offer the hire of duvets and pillows on their own. It's all or nothing, as some guests prefer to bring their own pillows and sleeping bags.

Local attractions

If you’re itching to hurl yourself down a hill on your mountain bike, Hamsterley Forest (20 minutes’ drive) is the place to go and get muddy. There are routes for most abilities here, from (relatively) gentle off-road tracks for less experienced riders to technically demanding black trails. The North Pennines have dark sky status, and you can make the most of the night sky at Grassholme Observatory (half an hour). This facility on the banks of Grassholme Reservoir holds regular events that start with an informative talk and conclude with a look through powerful telescopes. Stretching along the River Wear, the university city of Durham (35 minutes) is known for its medieval cathedral, home to splendid stained-glass windows and Harry Potter filming locations. For a breather with a scenic view of the cathedral, head to Crook Hall Gardens.
