What customers say

Awesome, peaceful, clean spot with lovely country views. Spacious, tidy pitches (some fenced!). Spotless facilities. Great games room for all. Owners are super friendly & helpful, especially with the farm animals – kids can pet and ride them. Lots want to come back!

Pixies unpowered concrete and grass campervan site

Liked this was a great site! amazing facilities, everything had been thought of! there were enclosed pitches so dogs could run free around your caravan etc. horses, goats, sheep, llamas all adding to the character of the place. guided tour by the site owner. the shower was better than a lot of hotels we have been too! the site has a games room, pool, board games, football table, table tennis. 3 fridges/freezers and a kitchen space for cooking and washing up. kids park and dog play pen. wood sculptures were cool too! great stop off for coast to coast cycling.

Disliked nothing- we could have stayed longer but were travelling onto another destination.

Liked Chilled & plenty of room on the pitches. Beautifully clean shower & toilet facilities albeit limited.

Disliked The breeze/wind but don't think the owners can do much about that!

Lindsey N.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Lovely site with a couple of completely secure pitches for those with children & dogs. Picnic benches for each pitch & the indoor play room plus beautifully clean shower & toilet (one of each for males & females) and the animals (pygmy goats, donkey, Shetland pony & llamas) make it a unique experience, too.

Disliked The wind, cos it's on a hill!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you Lindsey for the lovely review.

Unfortunately the wind is the one thing we cant control and certainly not what we expect in August 😂

kind regards

Local attractions

Make the most of your rural location by getting your walking boots on or taking to your bike to hit the trails that crisscross this scenic area. Getting to the Waskerley Way requires you only to cross one adjacent field, and then you can join this route across the moors, past the Waskerley and Smiddy Shore reservoirs and to Hownsgill Viaduct, towering 46 metres above the woodland canopy. Other fab walks can be had around Derwent Reservoir, 20 minutes away; you can dangle a rod into the water here too, to see if you can snag one of the lake’s trout (rumour has it they can weigh up to 20lb). Cyclists, meanwhile, can find some top routes at Hamsterley Forest 25 minutes away, or get their pulses racing on the downhill tracks at Descend Bike Park (25 minutes). For family-friendly attractions, head to Hall Hill Farm 15 minutes away, for lots of furry adventures riding the donkeys, feeding the llamas and watching the sheep race, or take a trip on the steam trains of Weardale Railway, 25 minutes away. Within the same distance is the famed Beamish open air museum: bag 25% discount tickets for this before setting off from the Bonners Lodge team. Also 25 minutes away is Diggerland Durham, where kids of all ages (even ones who sometimes claim to be grownups) can drive lots of different vehicles… and take lots of pics of them doing so too.
