    Lovely quiet site with hard standing all service pitch.within walking distance of a lovely village pub and good train /bus service to local attractions.
    Gordon the warden is very friendly and has lots of local knowledge which he is happy to share.

    Disliked: 

    The toilets are very basic and inadequate for a site of this size ( only 1 women’s shower and 2 women’s toilets) luckily the site was fairly empty when we stayed - would not want to be here if fully booked.

    Great setting and location, perfect for what we had planned
    Within easy reach of Hadrian’s Wall and Newcastle. Only an hour from Bambrough Castle
    We had a spacious fully serviced pitch which functioned perfectly
    Gordon the warden is an absolute star, friendly, welcoming, helpful and a mine of local knowledge
    Had a great meal at the White Swan in Ovingham

    Disliked: 

    The toilet block!!!!!
    It’s well past its sell by date (by about 50 years) Everything works and Gordon does his best to keep it clean, but it really is grotty
