Gallows Hill

喜欢 We were the only people on the site and so had the pick of the views, which were great. We received a text on the day of arrival with details and gate lock code. It was a perfect one night stopover on our journey to Yorkshire from Galloway. The site was reasonably tidy and I believe the owner has plans to improve the site. The showers were pretty good, there was an apology that they had not been cleaned that day, which probably accounted for the toilets not being very clean either.

不喜欢 There is a big step out of the toilet block that would benefit from having proper steps with a handrail put in for those less nimble?

喜欢 Quiet site with gorgeous views! Road noise acted like white noise and was able to get a full nights sleep. Clean facilities and drinking water available for free! Good sized pitches - we had plenty of room and felt safe and comfortable.

不喜欢 Only downside - there wasn’t anywhere to wash pots (unless we just couldn’t fine it!) but wasn’t a major issue and was still incredible value for money!

喜欢 Delightful small camping site. Only has about 12 pitches but has the most amazing views across the Durham Countryside. The owner supplied us with enough for its price should have been 1 night , but so much wood it lasted 5 nights. Toilet and Shower facilities adequate and clean for site this size. One of the showers was not working , owner came straight out and dealt with it . Very friendly owner. Only one minor problem is coming off main road onto site which can be sharp , so make sure to indicate well before turning .Otherwise highlr recommended.

不喜欢 This is a grubby little site located a few meters from the very busy A66 which makes it very noisey. Despite having booked and paid the full booking fee, when I arrived the gates to the site were padlocked so I could not access it. I phoned the number on my booking form three times but there was no answer. I left a message but noone called me back. There was a house next to the site so I knocked to see if anyone could help but noone answered. Having waited half an hour I concluded this was a pitchup scam and left. In order to leave the site I had to retrace my steps back up the A66 against the flow of traffic on the grass verge. This is a problematic site to access if you are on foot or, as I was, on a bicyle. Having left the site I made my way to Barnard Castle and booked into a hotel at the cost of £115 on to of my already paid camping fee. About half an hour after booking into my hotel I received a text message from the site owner giving me the access code for the padlock!! I messaged back explaining what had happened and got a reply saying, more or less, that it was my fault I hadnt received the code before I did and that everyone else had. They must have all arrived after I left (about 6.30pm) because there was noone on it while I was there. On top of all that, there was no apology or any offer of a refund.

来自经理: The text was sent at 1pm and the proof is attached, shame you can't read basic instructions - when I checked, the code was entered in the lock so it could easily have been opened

I'm so sorry being with my mother in hospital meant I couldn't answer your call, but you had the instructions every other guest had over the weekend - they all managed but you couldn't. What do you think that means?

Threatening me with bad reviews and reporting us to pitchup wasn't a great idea. I don't put up with threats, I just feel sorry for whatever accomodation had to put up with you for the night. If you couldn't get out of the entrance with a bike please take care on your daily chores, if tractors, trailers, caravans cars and other bikers can do it I really worry for you. Take care buddy, don't come back :p

喜欢 Good circular walk to Barnard Castle via public footpaths from site.

不喜欢 Toilets/showers (in container) were not kept clean, no paper in ladies on the first morning. Overrun by kids screaming, slamming doors and running hot taps while I attempted to have a shower (shower runs cold when taps are running).
Close to A66 but road noise was drowned out by the constant noise from unsupervised kids. Most of the other people on the site seemed to be a large group camping in half a dozen tents. One night had someone shining a torch/laser into the van.
Fire pits allowed but didn't feel like sitting out.
Felt safer the previous night when we were pitched by the side of a road in a Cumbrian village.
No washing up sink, people washing barbecue equipment in the washbasins, no Elsan waste facility, told to pour it down the toilet ... therefore no way to wash the waste tank out afterwards.
£2.50 per night for the dog on top of the £20 for the pitch seemed reasonable until we saw what we were getting for the price, very basic site.
