Liked The view. I'm sure staying at the bothies would be lovely with their integrated facilities

Disliked The very primative long drop toilet allocated for campervans (the public toilet in Bellingham is luxurious by comparison).

From the manager: It is a difficult one to answer politely, a came & had a chap with you, Told you about our facilities, which included a Sauna a woodland bar a wildlife pond 5 Acres of glorious Northumberland National Park scenery. I also explained about the Toilet which is I agree a long drop, but also explained the reason for this was because it is built over a natural water spring and therefore when there is heavy rain the water level raises & it self flushes into the local sewage works via a drain that is set into the wall. As far as i am aware this is the only self flushing eco toilet that is have heard of. I am proud of it because i built it myself! It is cleaned daily has a hand sanitiser and does the job. I understand that we are not a glitzy camper van park, but our location and the fact that you will have a maximum of only 2 neighbours in vans surely makes up for this? and what about the views down the North Tyne Valley that have been described as some of the best in England? FYI our WiFi works perfectly the code is in the welcome e-mail that is sent to all arrivals, or you could ask for it. Also for readers of this response we have up graded the shower in the last week.
