Xmas 2023.
My wife and I decided to do something different this year and went to this CL site. We have been before and found it ticked a lot of our boxes. Communications with Mark and John where spot on, gave us accurate information we required. Booking is pretty straight forward using their webpage. We did pick our pitch from the site plan you can see on the website, but unfortunately when we arrived someone had already pitched up on our designated pitch. No staff were on site, which we were aware of, but a quick call to John sorted that out and we could use either of the two remaining pitches.
The approach road, Green Lane, is narrow in places, but there is a few areas for passing, but we never needed them as the road is fairly short.
Pitches are hardstanding but you have to be aware of the small grass areas as they do get muddy and bogged down a bit. We had a bit of rain on the last day. We thought we may struggle getting off but nothing to worry about there. Motorhome, 7.4m long and 3.5t.
We were given a code to a key box to get a fob for using the buildings showers and toilets.
These are like been back in senior school. Communal areas, but shower curtains and private changing areas if you need them. We used them everyday while we were there. Not a problem at all.
We like the area for the walks. Wide hard standing footpaths so ideal for bikes, pushchairs and wheelchairs. Easy access into Durham from the site.
16amp hook up with RCD resets but didn’t have any problems at all. The WiFi has a very good signal. All this for £20 a night is a steal compared to some CLs we have been to, charging a lot more. Thanks again to John and Mark. See you again no doubt.
