Walnut orchard pitches
Wilder pitches in walnut orchard

Want to spend some time deep in the delightful Co.Durham countryside? Don’t particularly want to have to make a long diversion from the main road to get there? Book yourselves a space at Dragonfly Camping – this splendid spot is part of a working farm surrounded by woodlands, and yet it’s no more than 15 minutes’ drive from either the A1 or the A19. You’ll probably start to notice the peaceful atmosphere as you make your way down the farm track to the camping area. At this point you’ll need to make a choice – will you set up in the main field (a popular choice for groups and families because of its open space and proximity to facilities), or among the trees in the Walnut Orchard for more of a secluded wild camping-style experience? Either way, you’ll have access to toilets and showers, along with water points in the camping fields. You’ll be allowed to bring your dog along too – perhaps to accompany you as you wander through the woods and grasslands around the site, looking out to see what sort of wildlife you can spot. Once you’ve stretched your legs on site, there’s much more to explore in the area – including outings to the Durham Dales, the Durham Heritage Coast and, of course, the city of Durham itself, which is about 15 minutes’ drive away. You won’t have to go that far for your picnic supplies though, as you can pick those up at the convenience store five minutes’ drive away in Wheatley Hill (which also has a café and a couple of takeaways).

Anbefalt, romslig campingplass med rolig, 'vill camping'-følelse. Hyggelige eiere, flotte plasser (skog/frukthage), rene toaletter/dusjer. Bålpanne tilgjengelig. God verdi. Veien er krevende, men svært positiv feedback.

Likte First time camping in 40 years, went with my two boys, wasn't sure what to expect. Positives from my particular perspective: The site was beautiful, with great views, countryside picturesqueness, woodland trees, and an orchard on the campsite.
The hosts are very friendly, welcomed us and were always available throughout. We bought firewood from them and really enjoyed having a campfire each night by the tent.
The facilities are two toilets and two showers in a modified section of the farmhouse, a bit rough-hewn perhaps but the kids thought it was adventurous. Outside is a sink with hot water for washing pots.
Nearby the hosts have set up a sheltered social area for gathering and chatting, with interesting mechanical artworks on display.
Loved being able to sit each night and skygaze, listen to the birds, watch the swallows skimming the grass for bugs, and greeting the horses in the neighbouring field. Little one found a newt and a frog in the grass and thought that was great.
Had a fab two-night break. I'd say this site is rustic and close-to-nature. Will definitely consider visiting again next year.

Likte ikke I don't like writing negatives, but if I were to make a few suggestions to improve the experience for someone like me (late forties, two kids, not a regular camper), I would suggest firstly to keep the grass mown short. It came up above our ankles in places and made trudging to the facilities harder than it needed to be. Kids couldn't play so well in the free areas.
The social gathering area is accompanied by music, played on an outdoor system. Not particularly loud, but audible from half the site. We were pitched down the slope so couldn't hear it, and it was probably inaudible from the orchard too. If you're looking for a quiet camping experience, make sure you pitch up away from the main building.
As mentioned, it's been a few years since I last went camping, and on reflection I think the price was a little high for what we got. I expected slightly more complete facilities, such as lighting in the toilet block (at night you can't see much), maybe a couple of dedicated sinks for brushing teeth and washing hands (aside from the dish washing kitchen sink), and maybe shower cubicles that protect you from the elements better. The quirkiness of the facilities was attractive, but perhaps less than practical.

Likte Absolutely loved it here, it was very quiet and peaceful giving a lovely wild camp sort of feel- the fire pit and picnic tables really added to the warm feel. The hosts were extremely friendly and I felt very safe as a female solo camper. I will 100% be a returning customer- thank you so much
