The C&CC site at Barnard Castle is ok, about 10 minutes drive off the A66. There's a CC site nearby but as we're not members, we were turned away. I drive the A66 regularly to visit relatives and have noted there are several small sites in sight of the road itself - they'll be on the Site Search map with reviews.

Hi Rick
Glad you are sorted, often thought of carrs hill, we go to witches craig as it near my family. on our tour of the west we are at Inverewe Gardens from 25th May for 5 nights. That's a shame would have come over and said hello. Hope you enjoy your trip.
