Runswick Bay Caravan Park

Disliked A bit expensive.

Liked Well laid out generously sized pitches in a large field.
Very well maintained washing up area, toilets, shower rooms, freezer ice pack facility.
Extremely well laid out site ‘rules’ that made sense and seemed fair.

Disliked Long walk to toilets and other facilities from pitches.
No apparent enforcement of the ‘rules’ e.g. “no ball games”.
No specific play area for children.

Liked Although the camping field was busy, the pitches were well spaced, so didn't feel cramped. There was enough room between pitches for children to kick a football around without disturbing others. Nice and level, although due to the dry summer the ground was very hard.
For a pop up campsite, facilities were adequate. We only stopped the one night as this was first time camping with our grandchildren and daughter. Nothing has put them off, although we would probably use somewhere with more to do on site for the children .
Great location for Runswick Bay, although as others have said, if you can, take the car down to the beach - it is a VERY steep walk back up. The bottom car park does get busy so need to get down early. Also good for the other seaside locations along the coast.
Campsite easy to find , check-in easy with friendly receptionist. Understand the cash only situation if only open for a few weeks in summer.

Disliked Dogs! It's a pity people can't take their pooches elsewhere to walk and poop, especially where children are likely to be playing. Nothing the campsite owners can do I'm afraid.

There was a problem with the hot water when we were there which meant we didn't use the showers or were able to wash up using hot water, unless we boiled the kettle. The person cleaning apologised and said the plumber was coming out after the weekend. The toilet area was clean when we got there, although there was a lack of toilet rolls at first. My daughter commented that when she used the shower to wash the children's feet off she had to hold the control all the time which was a pain.

Liked The area was nice close to beach and Cleveland way for a walk the hotel next to the site did lovely food we had a meal there and booked for breakfast next morning everything was spot on

Disliked The ground was quite hard to get the tent pegs in the toilet and bathroom facilities didn’t get cleaned enough if at all never saw anyone doing it there was cleaning products and cloths left so don’t know if we were expected to do it ourselves.The most annoying part was the showers they don’t stay on you have to keep pressing the button and they were cold didn’t get warm at all and another annoyance was we’d put ice packs and water bottles in freezer for next day and some kind person took some of them and swapped the iced ones for there’s that weren’t which isn’t the campsites fault but obviously the not so nice clientele!!

Liked This site is absolutely lovely. The owner was so welcoming and helpful, she found me a mallet as I forgot mine (der). The grounds were very tidy (no rubbish anywhere) lots of bins around the property. The ground was very soft which made pegging easy which was nice as I have bent so many of my pegs.
The showers were extremely clean and well lite.
This place was so nice I stayed an extra night.
Very well priced which i was surprised about given how lovely it is.

Disliked No dislikes at all

Liked Location great.
Facilities reasonable.
Friendly staff.

Disliked I realise it's a pop-up site, but fridges would be helpful given no electric hook up.
I do also appreciate you're relying on people clearing it out etc, but no shop for milk would mean could at least have a cuppa.

Tents and cars q close to one another.

Liked Location was good for Runswick Bay.

Disliked Too expensive considering there is no electric hook up and the facilities are very basic.
Toilet block needs a revamp, showers are very annoying, constantly having to press the button.
