 We have just spent 8 nights at this site, 2 adults and 3 children aged from 3 - 11, the facilities are excellent and the site is well maintained.
There is some road noise from the nearby road, pitches are available further back into the site. The children were quite happy playing in the playground with other children, the youngest under supervision at all times.
Access to the site is easy and it is a short walk/drive to visit Barnard Castle, unfortunately we were disappointed with the market, we expected more stalls.
The site's location is ideal for exploring the Teesdale and Swaledale areas, both areas offering opportunities for walking and sight seeing.
The site is visited by a fish and chip van on 2 nights during the week and the products that they sell are excellent and good value.

Very well kept site with friendly and helpful wardens. There is some road noise by the adjacent B6277 road. The site is kept clean and all of the pitches are hard standing.
A Fish & Chip van visits Wednesday & Friday evenings. Bowlees Museum is well worth visiting and Caravan Club members get 'buy one ticket get one free'.
Other good days out in the area include Egglestone Hall, Raby Castle and High Force.
The Eden Arms in West Auckland is about a fifteen minute drive away, and the food and service were both very good.
Would definitely return.

This is a relatively new, very neat and tidy well maintained Caravan Club Site.
Our wecome was pleasant and business-like; you may find that 'Do not arrive before midday. ' means precisely what it says! Reception opens for newcomers on the dot in our experience - not a problem.
The site location is excellent; it's easy to walk into Barnard Castle down the busy road, or a bit longer through the adjacent woodland footpath(fifteen or twenty minutes). Notwithstanding Caravan Club notices (July 2015) saying the woodland path is very muddy and blocked by a landslide we were able, quite easily, to take the woodland route. It appeared to be safe and there was no need to wear walking boots. A repair had been made by enthusiastic walkers.
Reaching the road at the Barnard Castle end of the woodland walk, take the opposite footpath signposted 'Castle'. BUT be vigilant and very careful crossing the road here; certainly look and definitely listen to be sure no traffic is approaching. Crossing the footbridge here allows access to the Castle (English Heritage), to the interesting town, and to Riverside walks.
Some mention has been made about the proximity of the Young Offenders Establishment (YOE) and associated noise. Noise-sensitive reporters have also mentioned 'road-noise. ' Neither was issue for us. The YOE is well shielded by trees and certainly is not 'right next door. '
In summary I would have no hesitation in suggesting friends stay here - the site is certainly disabled-friendly. As things stand, the woodland walk would be a bit too challenging for a mobility scooter, and the road too dangerous. But, by car, the town is just a couple of minutes away.

Very pleasant site well up to Caravan Club standards. Toilets and showers immaculate, also laundry and drying room. Warden friendly and helpful. All pitches hard standing, some have slight slope and although not bound by hedges they are on different levels which gives a feeling of separation.
There is a short dog walk and an adjacent field can be used for more exercise. There is a regular bus service. No stop, just wait by the site entrance and put your arm out. Fish and chip van visits on wednesday and saturday, choice is a bit limited, but food was very nice.
Walk to town is down hill along the road or through the nature reserve. Path in the woods is lovely, but quite steep and uneven.
Castle and grounds look interesting, but we didn't have time to explore. You can walk for miles along side the river Tees. The town is busy with plenty of pubs and restaurants.
The Golden Lion is dog friendly. The menu looks ok, but we didn't eat there. We stopped here on our way back from Scotland and will use this site again.

Just returned from Barnard Castle Site today. Saw the eclipse before we left and had quite a good view. Really enjoyed our stay there.
We were on the top level and seemed to be by ourselves as everyone tended to go to bottom level wondered if it was because of some traffic noise which we did notice but didn't bother us. Anyway lovely wardens and lovely facilities wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
Walking distance to town which we had a nice pint in at the Turks Head which couldn't believe the price of as so cheap. Lovely town with plenty of shops.
Went to Middleton -on Tees and had a smashing afternoon at a quiet farming village. Thoroughly would recommend. Fish and chip van came on Wednesday evening The best Fish & Chips we have tasted for a long time.
Well worth it. Will be returning very soon.

Location
The site is a 10 minute walk from Barnard Castle. This is a great town with a number of good pubs, shops and places to eat. The Tees runs through the town and is great for scenic walks. The Deepdale nature reserve behind the site is also great for walking.
Facilities
The site is recently built - facilities are modern, reliable and very well
Maintained. Site wardens are very helpful and friendly.
Price
Very reasonable at about £18 per night.

On arrival wardens very friendly and helpful. Pitches are large hardstanding. Very well maintained and clean site. Toilet/shower blocks clean and tidy with plenty of hot water. Information room has lots of leaflets for things to see/do Fish and chip van comes on site 2 nights a week. No far to a Morrisons supermarket and some lovely butchers in Barnard castle. We visited the Bowes Museum which was good. We visited Darlington and Richmond which are not to far away. We did also pay a visit to Catterick Caravans which has a good cafe. A good chip shop in Barnard Castle is Fyrer Tucks. We were on a pitch furthest from the road and you could hear a bit of traffic noise which wasn't a problem. Large field to walk dog in or a small dog walk too.

Only stopped for one night as an after thought on our way home. What a pleasant surprise. Great facilities ( too hot but that not a complaint) easy reach into Barny where there are great shops (fab butchers) old style pubs and many places to eat. Great walks along Tees. Yes site can get a bit of road noise on front pitches but we were at back overlooking woods - no noise and relaxing. Deffo return

Nice Site, within easy walking distance to Barnard Castle. The pitches are a good size with hardstanding. Facilities excellent as always with the Caravan Club. The wardens were nice, helpful and friendly.
Good walks from the Site.
Fish and chip van was good too.
Found the Site very open and extremely windy.
