What customers say
Generally good reviews for cleanliness and staff. Modern, warm facilities are a plus. Close to Beamish Museum. Some found pitches uneven/sloped, site a bit tight. Wi-Fi extra with mixed reviews. Occasional weekend noise noted.

Lovely site, clean modern and friendly.
Powered grass and gravel travel trailer campsite
Liked Lovely site. Very clean and modern shower/toilet facilities. On site bar looked very modern and welcoming. Friendly people. Checked in late and only stayed one night for an early Great North Run start. Although it looked like the bar was open til 11, the member of staff I spoke to said the site was on a quiet night in respect for the runners to get some sleep. Very impressed.
Disliked Didn’t stay long enough to have any issues. Maybe WiFi could be free considering the site fee and as phone signal was a bit poor.
