Liked: Great customer service, owners so friendly and helpful. Beautiful site,fabulous views. We took the very easy and stroll to the river, and sat drinking wine, as the sun set, on the recommendation of the owner,it was such a beautiful spot. The toilets and showers are inside a stone outbuildings, so are warm and really clean. There's also a kitchen with toaster,Kettle and microwave. Great site for kids to run around and play. It wasn't packed, so everyone had plenty of space at their pitch. We will be back!

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Lovely site, in a great area. It was quite busy with it being a bank holiday weekend but we were tucked into a corner in the far field so it still kept some of the feeling of remoteness. Very clean facilities and the honestly shop is a lovely touch. Good walk down to Kirkoswald and the Fetherstone Arms but we weren’t able to walk down the river as the weather was bad while we were there and it left the path down there very muddy (we didn’t take appropriate footwear!).
Disliked: We didn’t really have any dislikes! However, just to note, the River Site is a bit of a walk to the facilities, particularly when the weather isn’t great, but thankfully we didn’t need to use them much as we were in our caravan. Our pitch was also on quite a steep slope which made levelling it interesting! The owner was very friendly and helpful, asking if we needed a hand getting the caravan out given the bad weather. We ended up being fine, but the offer was gratefully received. what’s that board? There is a WiFi workshop but for some reason my phone didn’t work when connected to it. It must have worked for other people though as noticed people in there watching football over the weekend.
