 Was only meant to stay 2 night as a stopover on the way back from Scotland but my stopover on the way was cancelled due to flooding so ended up here both ways.
Nice little site with easy check in. I’d booked grass with electric but was recommended to upgrade as the grass was pretty soggy, no pressure but I was glad of the suggestion and that I took it up.
No where on site is far from the toilet block, which were kept immaculately clean and the showers were great, no horrid push buttons but plenty of hot water.
Added bonus was the short dog walk, especially on the way back when we wanted a rest day!
We were also treated to a lovely aurora show, and a farmers market in Barnard castle.
Lovely stay thank you.

Back again for a short break.
The wardens were very friendly and helpful.
The facilities were very clean and warm.
The wifi continued to be very intermittent despite the campsite being less than half full for the first two nights.
Paid just less that £72 for 3 nights with the oldies discount, thought this was excellent value.
Found a new walk to Barnard castle via the public footpath through Lartington Hall - has fewer hills but it's impossible to miss the ones leading out/into the campsite and Barnard castle.
Will no doubt be visiting again.

Well laid out very quiet campsite.
Facilities are clean and modern. Wardens are great.
Nice walk through the woods into town although if you’re a bit uneasy on your feet it could be a little difficult.

Excellent, large snd well maintained club site within walking distance of Barnard castle town centre.
The town is worth visiting and has everything you need. This site also makes a great base for exploring Teesdale - High Force, Middleton and many good walks in good reach.
Facilities are immaculate and modern.

Back again! This time on a grass pitch. We had a choice of a few.
The wardens were very friendly and helpful. It's possible that there may be more grass pitches available in the future as all of the ready camp tents have now gone and they have reseeded the areas where they were.
The site Wifi has still not improved so just used our mobiles as hotspots.
The big winner for us was that there was a spectacular view of the Aurora Borealis from the site whilst we were there. It's the first time we have seen them and it was absolutely magical.
We didn't do it this time but if you can get parked at Bowlees Visitor Centre near Middleton in Teesdale then there is a lovely walk along the river past Low Force to High Force.

Very warm welcome and super helpful friendly wardens.
Beautifully kept site although could.
To avoid churning up the grass to get onto the shortish but wide pitch -
Wash rooms sooo warm and spotlessly clean.
Washing up area in a warm room too.

Back again for another visit to the site and an area we know quite well. Much is the same as it was for our last visit except we were given a choice of pitches.
Last time we were there I mentioned the poor condition of the approach road, well this has been massively improved. The road had been resurfaced and not a pot hole to be found.
As we are eligible for an age concession the cost was less than £22, which we thought was excellent value.
Only disappointment was that the wifi was not very good whilst we were there.

This was our first caravanning experience so have nothing to compare with but the site was extremely well kept with excellent facilities and very helpful and friendly staff.
The only downside was the WiFi, we had it for the 1st day then nothing for 6 days.
The staff said they were waiting for it to be fixed but it never was, very disappointing.
Overall a very god experience.

As with most C & CC sites the pitches are great and facilities very clean etc. It is a quiet site with all kinds of of bird and wildlife if you care to be quiet and observe.
The walk into Barnard castle through the farm and wood is thoroughly enjoyable but can be taxing on the elderly and infirm.
The bus service from outside the entrance is great and less work on the legs.
My biggest criticism of our stay was the smell from the pig farm at the bottom of the site which almost made us leave early and certainly made mealtimes hard work as the smell was disgusting. It must be remembered however that this was not in the C & CC control.

Pleasant and quiet site. 1. 5 mile walk through a nature reserve, to Barnard castle.
Level pitches with good facilities, if a little tired.
Very pleasant staff on site, good TV signal & 4g signal was OK. Couldn't connect to the site WIFI.
