From the manager: Hi Kirsti, Delighted you enjoyed your overnight with us in our Motorhome Park. Yes we do feel it is great value for money and glad you thought so as well. Thanks for nice comments on our team and cheers for the recommendation. Wish you the best!!!

Liked Excellent sheltered pitches Very friendly and helpful owner

Disliked Has a washing machine but no tumble dryer which is useful in winter when it rains a lot Not a lot of beach at the end of the road

Liked Nice location next to Castle Howard Good sized pitches but many are not level

Disliked I like crows but blimey, there's was loads of the in the trees at the pitches They were so noisy they woke me every morning at sunrise The management of the site are so strict about dogs being on a lead at all times You are told this on check in and it it highlighted bin your welcome leaflet However, a couple let their 2 pugs rum around their caravan, a Labrador was often running loose around the pitches 2 spaniels were loose and one nearly KILLED a duck My dog is always on a lead I don't understand why so many people ignore the rules and make it unpleasant for the rest of us

From the manager: Thanks Kirstie. It is upsetting to know that some of our guests had no regard for the rules of the site. New signs have now been displayed about keeping dogs on a lead and our team will patrol when possible to ensure they are adhered to. Every year the crows feature in guest reviews but with so many large and beautiful trees in our rural setting this is to be expected. I'm sure you can appreciate that in bygone days, pre electricity, the dawn chorus was the alarm clock for everyone to get up and make the most of the daylight hours but because of technology our sleep patterns have changed whilst the natural world still follows the eternal patterns of the sun and the seasons. Some guests really enjoy the 'dawn chorus experience' whilst others suggest ear plugs; a sensible suggestion for light sleepers when camping.

Liked Very nice and friendly warden on reception who couldn't be more helpful Very quiet and peaceful nights stay

Disliked Very small and cramped site A large number of static vans with touring pitches crammed in around them Shower facilities and laundry very outdated therefore didn't use them Couldn't find any where safe to walk the dog

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review .We are a small 3 acre site with only 20 static vans. Our tourer area is all in one block between our beautiful river and canal feeder .Our ladies and gents shower block has been totally updated ( only finished in March.) to a very high standard and very modern. Our dog walk is at the top of the site , short but pretty. The canal path is also within 300 yds. Yes our laundry is basic ,but functions.

Liked Great stay off season Showers and toilets were immaculately clean

Disliked Has a large number of long stay caravans Would be too busy in high season The laundry facilities were very dirty so I didn't use them I feel the long term residents / visitors need to look after their facilities dryer looked like it had dog bedding in it it was full of hairs Takevaeay wasn't open but that wasn't stated anywhere before booking The shop didn't have anything useful such as milk

Liked Large and spacious site with plenty of walking areas Immaculately clean brand new shower units laundry service is excellent Very nice staff working on the site

Disliked Unfortunately the weather was poor so unable to enjoy sitting out

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thankyou so much for your lovely review, hopefully you can visit again when the weather is better.

Liked Friendly helpful staff Clean facilities but very dated

Disliked Showers very small with hardly anywhere to get dressed and unable to avoid your stuff getting wet Very small pitches surrounded by grass which was getting churned up and muddy Too small and expensive for what was on offer and in winter Also sick of people letting their dogs run around off the lead

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review and sorry that our site did not live up to your expectations. It has been a particularly wet winter and the grass is very very soft. We have just completed a development to add on additional hard standing pitches to account for this moving forwards. We do ask for all dogs to be on a lead on site so i am sorry that this was not the case. The showers are quite small but we take on board your comments and will consider options to assist with this issue moving forwards.

Liked Very handy for town centre and supermarkets were easy to walk to Laundry was very good and easy to use via an app

Disliked A very large campsite with a lot of motorhomes and caravans crammed into very small spaces Not really anywhere to walk the dog

Liked Very basic walled parking area Great first access to the town

Recommend to friends Visit again

Liked Great small site with lovely views of Kielder forest Nice sizeable pitches with electric hook up and water at the pitch Chemical waste and drive over grey disposal next to pitches Toilet and shower block nice and clean Washer and dryer available takes £1 and £2 coins only Going back next week

Disliked The tumble dryer is a condenser dryer if you use it check the water drawer is empty and the lint filter is cleaned

Recommend to friends Visit again

Liked Quiet and relaxed stay but wouldn't like to be there at the height of summer as it is a very large park and it has a lot of permanent and seasonal caravans as well as a number of statics The showers and toilets are very nice and fairly new but the cleaning isn't very good

Disliked Only one Washing machine and dryer for a very large park The dryer isn't very good and takes nearly 2 hours to dry one load Also the laundry room is closed between 9.30 and 5pm so that's also resticting There is a lot of stuff cluttering around permanent pitches making a really nice wooded area look a mess, with so much decking and furniture gnomes and windmills never mind the cheap fairy lights spoils the park the place needs a good tidy up

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: I wouldn't say our site is very large, compared to some we are a small site. Our Showers & toilets are checked & cleaned everyday. You were asked a few times by staff if everything was ok & you had no complaints while you were onsite. The laundry room is open between 9.30am & 5pm, If there was a problem with the dryer did you report this to the reception? you are given an information sheet when you check-in this asks that if you encounter any problems during your stay to please report them to reception & we will do our best to rectify them. What other customers have on their pitches doesn't affect anyone else's stay. Our gardener works hard around the site & if pitches are looking a mess our customers are asked to tidy them up. Thank you for your review.

Liked Well I have never seen a holiday park quite like this before Mostly statics and residential long stay caravans We were the only motorhome and we hardly saw anyone Great dog walk path was a massive bonus as we seemed to be the only ones using it Nice and friendly site manager

Disliked A lot of caravans surrounded by rubbish and weather beaten furniture Was planning to use the laundry services but didn't like £10 deposit for the door key, I've never seen this befor shower facilities not used but not clean enough for me

Recommend to friends Visit again

Liked Lovely and peaceful Have stayed before and will return Beautiful horses in surrounding fields Good hard standing pitches Water and bins available

Disliked If chemical and grey waste disposal were available I would happily stay longer

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for your lovely review, we’re really pleased you enjoyed another peaceful stay with us and appreciated the horses, hard standing pitches, and the overall setting. It means a lot to hear that you’ve stayed before and plan to return. Thank you as well for your feedback regarding chemical and grey waste disposal. This is something we are currently looking into, so watch this space as we continue to develop the site. We really appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Best wishes, Lauren & Aaron
