Pefect for Hadrians Wall
Great site for all things Roman
Well Worth a Visit
We stayed here for a week in the middle of Sep and we thoroughly enjoyed it,
The site is sloping so be prepared for it, the owner has some blocks you can use beside the bin area. Only met the owner once and that was on arrival, very friendly and full of tips to get us out and about. I can imagine some finding this CL a bit out of the way but it suited us down to the ground. Not too far away from civilisation but far enough to enjoy the peace and quiet.
We were there for a week and we found loads to do nearby, spending quite a lot of our time walking long Hadirains Wall.
I recommend you take the short drive up to Walltown Craggs to watch the sunset it was stunning. This was perfect for us and it seemed it was a favourite of a few others, it was full all the time we were there. I would definitely consider a return without hesitation.
P.S. When it gets dark, take a step outside and look up. On a clear night the Milky Way is very clear and the display of stars is breathtaking.

Perfect CL
Spent 3 nights here on our way further north. Spacious field with hook up around 3 sides. Some pitches are sloping so blocks needed (blocks were available next to dust bins if you dont have enough). Water, bins, and waste at one side of field nicely hidden by screening. Grass was short. Pleasent views in all directions and cows, sheep, horses, chickens, and ducks in adjacent fields. Very quiet and peaceful. Ideally situated for visiting many things Roman and walking the wall. Only minor critisism would be the CL sign on the road is somewhat faded so could be missed. Would definately stay here again.
Roaming with Romans!
