If you're after something a bit different down Durham way, you'll find it in spades at The Barn at Easington. Part of an outdoor educational centre that doubles as a venue for music, drama, arts and family events, this fab little place is designed for outdoorsy holidays with as much – or as little – luxury as you want, all in a easygoing setting with the emphasis on serenely simple stuff, from sitting round the campfire to roaming about the meadows and woods. The Barn is within a 30-acre farm on the coast of the Durham Magnesian Limestone Plateau, in an Area of Outstanding Beauty on the edge of Hawthorn Dene. The site is at the end of a mile-long track, which the site does their best to maintain. It's also a couple of miles from local village Easington and four from Peterlee, and a short and scenic walk across fields and through the dene to Hawthorn Hive's small beach and the Durham Heritage Coast; when it's stormy, you'll be able to hear the sea from the site. Wherever you're staying on site, you're welcome to wander around the fields – look out for the farm chickens, horses and (sometimes) pigs – or you can opt to idle around the farm in your own secret spot, or trundle along to see if any events are on during your stay. Then time to get cooking: barbecues and campfires are enthusiastically encouraged, and firepits and firewood are available on request. For eating out and other supplies, although you'll feel you're in the middle of nowhere here, you're really rather well placed indeed: the A19 is 10 minutes' drive away; Seaham is within 15 minutes' drive or about 45 minutes' walk, and Durham is reachable in half an hour. Newcastle is 40 minutes from the farm.

Likte: The quiet location.

Pitches are far enough apart to feel like you are wild camping.

Absolutely loved the fire pits.

Shed showers are novel.

Having a stepping stool next to urinals for children to use was a great idea.

30 min walk to blast beach. 3 hours walk to Seaham beach (walking at a 4 year old pace).

I've already booked to come back again in 7 weeks.

Camping-pod Sparrow

Likte: This is a very lovely campsite in a stunning location! I stayed in Sparrow Pod with my dog. The little seating area in front of the pod has a spectacular view across the woods to the sea, perfect for enjoying a campfire and all the birdlife. This is the 'simple' pod (bring your camp bed and everything you'd need in a tent) - it's beautiful quality wood and has several sockets and cosy underfloor heating.

The site as a whole has lots of lovely touches (including fresh daffodils in vases in the toilets!) and spotlessly clean facilities - the owners are really welcoming and helpful. I noticed that there are nice level pitches on various 'terraces' for tent campers and a hardstanding area for campervans.

Some helpful practical things:

Dog owners - dogs must be kept on lead on site but there's a wonderful large field immediately adjacent where dogs can run free. This leads to the walk through the woods to the beach which is traffic free (see note below about steep drops).

Access track - this is a fun challenge and I wouldn't fancy it in wintry conditions or a low slung sports car! But it's totally do-able if you're patient - take it very slowly in a low gear and note where the very few passing places are as you might need to reverse quite a long way. I did it six times and never encountered another vehicle though. It's totally worth it for the wonderful location at the other end - just take all your provisions as you probably won't want to 'pop back' to the shops.

Mobility/fitness - if like me you're a bit compromised in these areas, it's worth noting that the site is sloping and you can't park right by your pitch/accommodation. But wheelbarrows are available for transporting gear and I'm sure you could ask for one of the nearer tent pitches if that would help you. The path to the beach goes through stunning scenery (took me about half an hour at quite a slow pace) with steep parts and uneven ground - sturdy footwear advised. There's also a very simple stile (see photo) which is the only way into the woods - I couldn't climb it but luckily I'm just tall enough (5 foot 8) to 'stride' over it inelegantly!

Safety on the walk to the beach - as you get further through the woods, nearer to the impressive viaduct which you go underneath, there are some very steep drops - just good to be aware of if you've got dogs or young children running around. I just popped my dog on her lead for those sections.

These are just some useful pointers to help you enjoy your stay - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this beautiful place and will definitely be back one day!

Likte ikke: Nothing at all.

Lokale attraksjoner

Heritage is all around here: local village Easington is home to an ancient church famed as a sailor's landmark, and is a former mining town with colliery remnants including a pit cage and pit wheel monuments at the nature reserve on the old pit site. More old mining bits and bobs can be picked up on the local beaches, including sea coal and sea glass. Walk through the woods and along the coastal path to the seaside town of Seaham, its beaches and harbour; the area around the farm is a wildlife haven too, so the quiet of foot might see deer and badger setts along the way. Like most the beaches along this stretch of Durham coast, those at Seaham are popular for sea fishing, particularly from the Featherbed rocks to Ryhope Dene. Hartlepool (25 minutes) has the HMS Trincomalee and the Maritime Experience on its quayside; at Durham, meander along the river for viewsome looks at the spectacular cathedral and castle.
