Site on edge of car park but after initial early morning rowers, the site was quiet and only a few dog walkers having coffee and cake. At 5 pm ish it got busy again with rowers until late evening and then it went very quiet. We were given a fob to access for the toilets and showers. The showers had plenty of hot water and had both individual shower cubicles and individual changing areas. Whilst we were there no one used the shower at the same time as us. It was great watching the rowers on the river whilst walking into Durham which is a pleasant walk. Durham is a lovely city to visit. There is a medium size Tesco in the market square so we didn't take the car out at all. Nice dog walk both on the river bank and the wood close by.
