We have just spent 8 nights at this site. When we arrived there was only a few pitches available but it was not a problem. We were not far from the road but it didn't bother us. My husband did say the cassette toilet emptying was not the best as the hose was very short and we didn't use the facilities so couldn't comment on them. Like all camp sites we had dogs barking which we find annoying when the owner does nothing about it. We were near a caravan that had 7 dogs in there and thought we would have a problem but they were as good as gold, just the occasional woof when another went past. I did wonder though what the policy was as I thought there was a limit of 3 dogs allowed on site. The site is within walking distance of Barnard Castle but with a slim footpath. I use a mobility scooter so was unable to use the path but its a short drive so not a problem. It is in a lovely location and the wardens were lovely. If we were to be in the area again we would certainly go back. It was a lovely holiday and we had great weather so that helped
