Greeted by one of the friendliest site wardens we've ever met (Gordon) who helped my husband reverse with the caravan (newbie to towing) he couldn't have been more helpful and told us the history of the area and pointed the best dog walks, our little boy thought he was amazing, especially seeing his spooky photos!! Site is really clean and tidy and relaxing, facilities are probably the cleanest we've seen in any site and the site is easy to get to from the A69, not a massive walk to local village and castle. The site also gets it's share of wildlife such as deer, Red kites and pheasants and is now most likely going to become our 'go to' site Thank you for a great weekend!

Bathroom facilities dated, desperately needs updating, only one toilet, one shower, very grubby. Push button shower unnecessary, 20 seconds of water every push, however water was hot.
There was WiFi, but we weren't allowed to use it, it should be an offered service for a fee.

The location just outside Ovingham was excellent. It was very easy to get to from the A69. The site was well laid out, good sized hardstanding serviced pitches. The site warden was outstanding, he was very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay.

The size of the toilet block. It was only designed for the sites previous use as a CL/CS site.
That aside it was immaculately clean, well maintained and the shower was hot.
I have used worse toilet blocks on UK campsites.

The warden gordon was very helpful. Pitches spaced out well. Good water/electric points, Great location for walking to Ovingham and prudhoe, shower block and washing facilities are a little dated but I think these are being refurbished in the near future. This has the potential to be a great site.

Toilet block was awful. Even the Romans would have marched on past it!! Needs to be raised to the ground and rebuilt. There was some development going on (but that seems to have been the case for several years) so hopefully that will result in a better toilet block and more hard standing pitches.
The warden was very helpful but clearly not very busy as at times he could appear over helpful bordering on intrusive.
The website needs to have clear directions on how to get to the site off the A69 as only one way (via Wylam) is realistic. We approached from Ovington which resulted in a bus having to reverse 1/4 mile!!
We would go back as long as the site facilities improved.
