pitches are fine, but facilities needs urgent update.12/08/2025

  • Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

    The pitches were good, each with a garden table and chairs. Gordon the site Manager was very helpful. This site is very much a site gradually being upgraded, mostly concentrating on Holiday Units at the moment, so do not expect too much on the touring side of things. Would not recommend at the present time, but given time it will be good I am sure.

    Disliked: 

    Easily the toilet block, it is very old with just one toilet and shower in the Ladies and Mens, not very nice either.
    Not sure what the plans are for the future, but a new Shower/Toilet block is badly needed.

From the manager...

Thank you for your feedback all of which has been duly noted.
We acquired the park in May last year and have already made many improvements, and plans are in place to continue this into 2026.
Whilst the shower block is clean and fit for purpose for our guests, this is one of the key areas we are looking into going forward.

    Beautiful site in a tranquil area.
    Nice walk into Ovingham.
    Love the picnic table & plants on the pitch.
    Gordon the warden was very friendly & welcoming.

    Disliked: 

    As stated in other comments the toilet block was very dated, but clean. We had our own facilities, so it was no issue for us personally.

From the manager...

Thank you for your comments. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us.

    What a lovely site. Warden is really helpful and friendly, what a great guy. We have been made to feel so welcome. The site is really smart and tidy. I like how open the site layout is. Pitches are huge and I really like the grass areas in between each pitch with a picnic bench. The fully serviced aspect of the pitches is fantastic. So convenient. Another fantastic touch is the laundry area, there is a washer and dryer free to use! This has been amazing when staying here with a toddler.

    Disliked: 

    Facilities are a bit poor. There are two toilets and a shower for females and the same for males. This is fine when the site isn’t busy but unfortunately it’s also very cold in there due to no roof insulation or appropriate heating, so we haven’t been brave enough to shower in there. Despite this, they are lovely and clean

From the manager...

Many thanks for your review, we are really pleased you enjoyed your time at High Hermitage Country Park.
We only acquired this Park in 2024 and a lot of renovation work has already been completed.
We are aware that whilst fit for purpose, the shower block is in need of upgrading and plans are in place to do this.

This site has a lot of potential. Friendly staff and a great location.11/03/2025

    The location is perfect. There’s an 11 mile path for walking or cycling that takes you in to Newcastle.

    The staff are so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. The manager even pumped up our caravan tyres, as he noticed they were a little deflated.

    We had a large, fully serviced pitch, plus a picnic table.

    A field to let the dog have a run in too.

    Our son had a competition at Close House Golf club, so this was super handy for that, just a mile down the road.

    Plus a pub, with good food not far away either!

    Disliked: 

    Although we loved this site and there is still a lot of development, it was great.

Nice site - shame about poor facilities.10/20/2025

  • Liked: 

    Nice tidy site with spacious plots. Very welcoming informative site manager. Fairly clean standard in toilet block. Near Ovingham village. Nice to hear the hooting owls at night. Quiet site.

    Disliked: 

    Poor standard of washing facilities. Only ONE very dated shower with poor water flow. No TV reception or WiFi signal.
    VERY EXPENSIVE at £38.50 for what you get.

From the manager...

Thank you for your review and we have taken your comments on board.
As you will have seen the Park has already had a major refurbishment with new turf, tarmac and trees planted etc...to elevate the look and feel for visitors.
Whilst the toilet and shower facilities are fit for purpose and clean, it is part of our plans to upgrade these as well in the near future.

    Early wake up call by contractors on site

From the manager...

Thank you for your review and the positives you have mentioned, we hope overall you enjoyed your stay.
I have taken note of the comments regarding the contractors, and will look into what time they are starting their work?
Now the tarmac has been laid on the roads there shouldn't be any further work that will cause major disruption to guests.

    We liked the site, it was just what we needed for a night, to break our long journey home, the site warden couldn’t have been more helpful, it was very much appreciated. Once the site is finished it will be really remarkable, very appealing on the eye, they are working so hard.
