This site has potential but traffic noise and accessibility are poor.

Aug 2026

Liked Communication with Lee, the owner, was excellent and it was good to see him on site in the evening. Hot water was available for washing up and at the washbasins.

Disliked The campsite was a shock upon arrival. Its proximity to the very busy A66 was a genuine surprise. The site resembles a French aire but demands far more than one of these would cost. Terrain is very uneven making access to the washing and toilet facilities a challenge and children’s play equipment has been disassembled and dumped in a corner where the pitches are located. We paid handsomely for our two dogs but there are no dog facilities. The expected walk into the town was impossible as the far stile had barbed wire running through it preventing access by dogs.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi,I really appreciate the information about the barbed wire restriction for your dogs this is entirely new to me. If you could please let me know if this is on our site or adjacent fields id appreciate it The dismantled play area is to be reconditioned for use of our guests next year. We appreciate that corner is not the most aesthetically pleasing but we hope the view the other way makes up for it. We do appreciate the constructive nature of your post - the close proximity to the a66 isn't something we can control but hopefully with more plantation it will be better next year. We try to improve and impress as the years go on Thanks again for your feedback Lee
