I stayed on this site the last weekend in July (sorry for late review) and absolutely loved it! I'm a wheelchair user with assistance dog, and like most club sites, I found the facilities accessible and spotlessly clean. The grounds were well kept and easy to get around. I particularly liked being able to go for walks with my dog directly from the site. The Tees Barrage park is fascinating and there are seals in the River Tees, just by the barrage. We sat watching them one evening for ages. I liked the Infinity Bridge circular walk as the paths are nice and wide and well surfaced.
I would like to say a huge thank you to the warden who regularly checked whether I needed anything, and who helped me with my long electric cable on pack-up day, in the pouring rain. His help with this meant I didn't get completely soaked just before driving home. All the wardens were incredibly friendly and helpful. The grounds are beautiful and so well kept. I was pleasantly surprised at how peaceful the site is, and the whole area. Being so close to built up areas, I didn't expect it to be so relaxing.
I will definitely be back again, probably with the rest of the family.
Well worth a visit
Several days into our tour of the North East of England, and after visits to Lindisfarne Castle and Priory, Seahouses and Warkworth Castle (staying at independent sites) we arrived at the White Water Park Club Campsite at Stockton-on-Tees. Once again we were checked in with by a friendly warden, and set up on our fully serviced pitch. This is a really interesting site, located at the Tees Barrage, adjacent to the Teeside white water course. Our visit coincided with a football match that I attended, and there are choices of buses into Middlesbrough either near the Asda, or across the Tees Barrage bridge, both stops only 10 minutes walk from site. This is a really funky site, in that the location may be misleading, but is many faceted. For example, the Portrack Marsh nature reserve is right in front of you, and is accessed via a 5 minute walk. There is a pub/restaurant at the entrance to the site, and Stockton-on-Tees is a pleasant 20 minute river walk away, so you can make what you want of your visit.
Outstanding Club Site . Must run for Site of the year 2022
Some members might be a bit hesitant to visit White Water Park as its in a fairly built up area next to the River Tees . I have to say once you drive through the barrier you will be in the most wonderful well planned and well designed park. On check in the Warden lady ( short hair ) was happy to change me to a standard pitch and we drove round the site and ended up near the area backing on to the storage. A bit further along is a play area for the kids... just enough to provide the meeting area for little friends. This was a very peaceful place to stay and the most impressive part of all was the immaculate gardens and pitch management grounds in general and flower displays .
This has to be the most impressive C& MHC site weve stayed at this year . Full credit to the wardens for the condition of the grounds . You can almost smell the pride in the flower beds and tubs display and my advice to all members is Give this site a visit . Local area is interesting with river walk into Stockton or a wonder through the open wild habitation park or see the Water Park white water sports at the Tees Barrage. You have a handy ASDA within 10 minutes walk and a local pub restaurant.
Well done to the wardens here . 100% They have my vote in the " Wardens of the Year" "gardens of the Year" "Site of the year" and any other awards going. We will be back down again from Sunderland soon..
Excellent Site
Our third visit to White Water Park Club Site. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The site is lovely. Beautifully maintained. We will definitely be visiting again.
A gem of a site
Such lovely Staff and a real gem of a park. Amazing gem of a site, white water park, beautiful walks along the river, Asda within walking distance, flower displays a delight. Lovely and clean.
Never been before but arranged to meet my sister there, whilst waiting to go into site someone pointed out that there was brown water running out of my engine on Motorhome (still under guarantee). Turns out it was a hose clip come loose. Luckily my brother in law looked at it and my insurance covered someone coming out to repair it.
The staff were so good they guided me to nearest plot as were worried about engine seizing. They were very helpful and concerned as I was a lone traveller.
There was some trouble during the night on the camp with people crashing through the barriers and police was called (I slept through all the noise) I have to say the staff were calm and composed about it all the next day, despite one of them being assaulted. They had praise and concern for all on the site and the police and took everything calmly and in their stride. Will definitely be visiting again.
Short break in Middlesbrough
What a lovely site had a great pitch where we got the sun all day long. Wardens kept the site in 1st class condition especially all the flowers. Great views to the white water center and a handy beefeater only next door if you like that sort of thing.
Lovely bike ride to stockton and Norton along the river and a handy asda down the side walkway ( 10 mins max walking)
Only downside we found was that both mens and womens shower/toilets were shut for cleaning between 10am till 12 needed a wee before we left after emptying toilet in van. I would recommend this site
We extended our stay…….again….we love it here
Spur of the moment booking for a birthday for 2 nights….managed to get a full serviced pitch with more or less all day sun. As usual the site is immaculate and the flowers are amazing….well done to all the wardens. We only live less than half an hour away but this site is a little gem….you just don’t know you have the A66 and A19 a short distance away. Lovely quiet walks down to the river…we managed to spot 6 seals this time 👍. If anyone has never tried the Beefeater, we would highly recommend..make sure you sign up to their website to get a discount voucher though. Steaks are amazing.
We enjoyed ourselves so much…and because weather was gorgeous..we decided to stay another 2 nights….going home to work and then back at teatime….and another visit to the Beefeater.
Only criticism we have is the strange smell in the shower/toilet blocks…not a dirty smell but rather a smelly water smell!!
We will be back soon….Helen and Mark x
P.S. If your reading this, you know who you are….we did come down to see you paddle boarding but couldn’t find you …..can only presume you were up the Stockton end…maybe next time 😉
Great place
This was our 4th time at White water and it just gets better. We went with my sister and brother in law who hadn’t been before and they loved it. There are so many walks especially along the river into Stockton. A must for all the ladies (and men) is Teeside retail park. I went with my sister while my husband stayed in the motorhome with dog. The only blip was on the Sunday night when gypsies forced their way onto the site. The wardens were amazing and the police got there very quickly and dealt with the situation. Well done everyone. Can’t wait to return

Didn't disappoint
Second visit, adjacent Nature Reserve for enjoyable walks, walking or cycling into Stockton or Middlesbrough on either side of the Tees, but note the Transporter bridge is closed and has been for a few years now but the Club site still includes it in its advertorial for crossing the Tees. Asda just a short walk away (half mile) and a Beefeater for food and drink is just outside of the entrance gate.
Wardens were very friendly with a cheery hello when passing, and on the ball when some Polish gypsies forced the barrier and entered the site. Within minutes 15 uniformed and 6 vehicles arrived and within an hour and a half they were evicted. Well done the wardens and the Tees police.
Newbies To Motorhoming
We are newbies, have done a couple of Britstops which are great but wanted to stay on a site, had a look around, saw some reviews on this site and thought we would give it a go.. So glad we did, the team here have set the “Bar” high, what a great team, place to visit , facilities are excellent, we took a fully serviced pitch site and wasn’t disappointed, the team were at the site were more than helpful. We will be going back again and definitely more the and one more time. Thank you for advice given, much appreciated and keep up the excellent work. Than you so much Phil & Sandy
