Roaming with Romans!

What a lovely CL. Very rural, right on Hadrians Wall (although it isn't visible here except on the skyline), with gorgeous views, peace and quiet, fantastic birdlife and plenty of very interesting places close by to either walk to or take a short drive. Good for some energetic cycling as well! The CL field is very spacious, with hook ups around edges. Some parts slope a good bit, but not an issue if wedges or blocks are carried. The entrance is quite generous, with a good approach road. The grass was cut short and even though it rained stayed firm. Water, waste with recycling and toilet empty point are all at one side of site, sheltered and tidy. Owner lives up above looking down onto site, and there is some livestock well fenced off, including free range eggs! Chickens occasionally pay a visit, which we found great, nice to see happy hens! We did a lovely walk from site to Thirlwall Castle and part of Hadrians Wall, and Birdoswald Fort is close by as well. Most of the major historic sites such as Vindolanda, Housesteads, Steel Rigg, Cawfields and Chesters are easily reached, and the Hadrians Wall Cycle path is close by. Halwhistle isnt far, with shops, pubs and station. This is a true "get away from it all" site, nice to spend hours sitting out just watching and listening to passing birds, or going a bit further afield and exploring. Highly recommended if you like a nice, well kept, peaceful site.
