The position of the site is quite reasonable but walking to the shops, only a short distance away meant walking on a main road without public footpath.

The facilities were minimal but we were in a caravan so not so noticeable, however the rest of the family were in tents, necessarily on sloping pitches and the hike between caravan and tents was over a quagmire, mainly due to plenty of rain and a distinct lack of drainage, also the use of the pitches by large motorhomes. The source of midges, a trench running along in front of the top wall, was too deep to dry up.

The most flat and level pitch I think I have ever stayed on! We were met by Gordon who showed us to our pitch and explained where everything was, lovely welcome from him.

Its quite a basic site, but everything works as it should and was clean. The site was nice and quiet and worked for us from a location point of view as we were doing a tour of the north east.

Fab location, peaceful, friendly helpful warden

I wonder when campsites will charge less for solo traveller? Why should single charge be same as double? Unfair. £30 for one person, with rather simple “facilities” seems expensive, outside school holidays too.
Maybe one day folk will pay extra for yappy dogs

Very quiet place, flat hardstanding.

Shower facilities very dated.
No disabled facilities
Dangerous steps
No was ip

Lovely break away with my partner and our dogs. The host was really welcoming and so friendly. Lovely surroundings and some nice pubs. Would happily return

Gordon is fantastic friendly and was always happy to help,fresh air and nice pitch,donkeys for when my little lad came brilliant

Needs more showers and toilets

Gordon the warden, he was so helpful, friendly, nothing was too much trouble. He made of point of chatting to all campers making sure they had everything they needed, knew where the shops etc were. Such a lovely friendly gentleman. Also the site itself was beautiful , peaceful, spread out so you didn’t feel squashed in. Beautiful surroundings. Felt very calm and peaceful. Liked that there were a variety of pitch sizes and camping options available.

Not so much disliked but needs more amenities. 1 shower, 2 toilets and 1 sink between what I estimated to be approx 15 females is not enough. I didn’t really dislike anything and even the 1 shower,2 toilets won’t put me off from going back to high hermitage.

The friendliness of the park owner and his knowledge of where to visit, places to ear and drink and shop. Even offered to help is pack up as rain was due. Cannot fault him.

Only one shower, one sink in bathroom. Only one pot wash. There was what seemed an abandoned static which could be converted for more facilities?

A lovely little site close enough to Newcastle to be convenient for day trips, but not so close as to be noisy. The warden is very friendly and can't do enough to help.
