Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (six person)
Liked: Location: In walking distance of Kirkby Stephen and lots of walking routes. There's a field and access to the river just off the site too which is great for a quick dog walk or a little stroll with the kids.
Facilities:
Probably the best shower blocks we've used on a campsite! The main blocks have been refurbished and theres also a family shower room which was great when travelling with a little one! The small blocks on the grass pitches aren't as new but the water was always hot and they were really clean.
The camping kitchen is a great idea- nice to be able to wash the dishes/cook/eat inside if needed and handy for anyone backpacking with a small tent.
Play area is nice to have on site too!
The Engine Room is a lovely little bar and has different food vendors there each night which is great if you've had a long day and want an easy tea! We had food on our first night from the Flatbread Kitchen- felt it looked really nice but was pricey for the quality (£27 for a burger, chicken flatbread and chips).

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (six person)
Liked: The site is amazing
When it's full it still seems empty as you have so much space with your pitch size
The shower block is extremely clean and very well maintained as well as the toilets and smells very nice and clean
There is a pub on site which is also very nice, it's an old coach house which is very open and airy. The beer and food is very reasonably priced.
The staff are so very helpful and extremely lovely people. Very knowledgeable about there surroundings.
Very animal friendly

Liked: Beautiful site area of attraction great railway great
Disliked: Site was well we should not of been on pitch 49 . Maybe family with kids as we were surrounded no privacy what so ever no peace and quiet until at least 1030 . Children running under our awning most of evening also on bikes no respect what so ever as parent on tables drinking and letting kids run wild . What ashame was highly recommended and was so looking forward to the site was beautiful we stayed down village until 10 pm second night as work hard all week and only wanted peace and quiet luckily found lovely little bar that was ok but would have just liked to sit outside our van have dinner and relax on summers evening so sorry would stay again just not near the bar .

Liked: Stayed here for 3 nights, excellent location with a great walk at the back of the site into Kirby Stephen along the old railway track and back along the river approx 3 miles round trip. Highly recommend Sandys the ice cream was gorgeous and very good value the owner was lovely too.
Very clean showers and toilets site was immediately kept. The Engine room with bar and street food restaurant where they have a different type of food each night. There was a pizza eve a burger and flat bread eve whilst we were there very reasonable in price too.
Loved this site its been one of our favourites over the past 4 years
Disliked: Not really an issue for us as we asked to move from pitch 41 which is opposite the engine room on the far side of the park near to the road there were tall trees behind the site with a lot of crows nesting and were quite loud. We were moved with no issue at all and only mention it to make anyone that is a light sleeper aware as this may cause an issue for you but the staff were brilliant
