Even though this County Durham site is located just half a mile from the market town of Barnard Castle, Teesdale Barnard Castle Club Campsite is set in open countryside that is designated an Area of High Landscape Value. Barnard Castle is a delightful town, home to the renowned Bowes Museum, a 12thC castle, an excellent visitor centre and a choice of pubs and restaurants.

Barnard Castle also marks the entrance to Teesdale which offers spectacular scenery following the river up to High Force and a series of other waterfalls to its source beyond the Pennine Way and Cow Green Reservoir.

The valley of Teesdale is prime walking and cycling country for those that love the outdoors, offering a wide variety of terrains to suit all abilities. Enjoy walks along the Teesdale Way, or shorter walks in the local area. For the less energetic, there are many places of interest nearby. The area's main asset is its unspoilt tranquillity.

To contact the campsite directly, please call 01833 637999.

Nearest alternative campsites: Richmond Hargill House Club Campsite, Lower Wensleydale Club Campsite, Hawes Club Campsite and Durham Grange Club Campsite.

Yearly Barney Visit

Teesdale Barnard Castle Club Campsite
As always a great trip to Barnard Castle. Fabulous site, great location AND sun was shining !!! Lots of great places to visit this time being Raby Castle and gardens which was fantastic although read brochure first as Castle is closed on Mondays but gardens gorgeous and head gardener Geoffrey very informative on guided walk. Barnard Castle itself a lovely town with very nice independent shops. Discovered a jewel too not too far away in Seaham. Lovely unspoilt wee seaside town with great fish and chips topped off with a paddle ! Fantastic few days away. .

Second time on this site. Came here for first outing in our motor home.

Teesdale Barnard Castle Club Campsite
Came here for first outing in our motor home. the staff were really friendly and helpful. Came back a second time with our grand children. We got a pitch near the play area , which they were in at every opportunity. Good walking distance for kids to get into Barnard Castle, with a play area on the way in. We visited Hury reservoir to fish, the road is a bit narrow for oncoming traffic in a motor home. Called into Raby castle on the way home ( parked in catch parking area) Is in good location for visiting the area.

Beautiful Barnard Castle

Teesdale Barnard Castle Club Campsite
Our first visit to Barnard Castle site and loved it, listening to the birds and wildlife. Easy walk into town, we went along the road but soon walking next to the river. Great town with good shops and facilities and good fish and chip shop - 149. We went to High Force & Low Force and parked the camper at Bowlees visitor centre and walked between the 2 waterfalls. Handy drying room on site too.
