This was our first visit to this site. Approach to the site was very congested when I arrived and was difficult to wait outside in the queue without causing an obstruction but it didn't last long and wardens were as welcoming as ever. We felt that pitches were small and rather close. However the views were stunning with easy access to cliff tops walks. The local town of Whitley bay has seen better days. Not somewhere I would recommend. In its favour it did have good efficient links to Newcastle by metro system which was very good.
