We have stayed here 5 times so obviously we like it. The owners are very friendly and greet you with a welcome pack. Peter is a mine of information about the locality - anything you need to know he can fill you in on. Site fees are very reasonable especially for fully serviced pitches and the TV signal is good. There is a little noise from the A689 but after an hour you wont even notice it. Other than that it is a very peaceful site. A short walk along a disused road takes you into Sedgefield. There are several excellent tea shops/cafes, a well stocked Co-op, several pubs and takeaways plus a large Sainsburys close by. Durham, Middlesborough,Sunderland all a short drive away although Sedgefield also boasts excellent bus routes to all of them. There is a super Indian restaurant a short walk from the site - The Raaj - one of the best Indian meals I have ever had! Wynyard Woodland Park and Hardwick Park are close by for walking and NCR No.1 for cycling. Seaham is a short drive for beach fans + sea glass collectors and Dalton Park for shopping.
