When we stayed it was after a period of rain and the site was very wet - I probably wouldn't go back again unless it was a bit less soggy - but that is not the fault of the CL. The CL is based on a farm in a small field at the back of the farm house with fields all around giving very pretty and peaceful surroundings. The access road is quite narrow but we didn't encounter any other vehicles using it at any point of our stay. We used the site as a base to explore the area. We spent one day at Hadrian's Wall walking with the dogs, another looking round the lovely town of Hexham and sampling some locally produced food, a day walking in Kielder Forest and the one sunny day of our holiday we drove up the coast stopping at various beaches on the way.
