Good for families

good site

We have had two recent one night stays at Durham. First time for a couple of years. Starting with the best points - the wardens. Very welcoming, friendly and helpful. (Sadly not something which can be taken for granted.) The site is well maintained in every way. (The toilet block isn't the newest but it is fine and kept very clean.) Also a very convenient location if in transit on A1(M) or for visiting Durham. The children's playground is certainly one of the better ones. So in general a good site. The less good points include the almost constant background traffic noise, although we don't find this a problem. It is an unpleasant, and potentially dangerous, site to leave on a bicycle due to being on busy dual carriageway shortly before large roundabout with A1(M) which is unavoidable. And lastly the wifi doesn't work. In between the two visits we stayed on a non-Club site in a very remote area with perfect free wifi on every pitch. This year most of our visits to Club sites have been to sites where the wifi doesn't work, although the wifi is shown on the website as a facility and there is nothing on the website to indicate the contrary
