Hill top heaven

We stayed 3 nights here it's just as the photos on the cliff top with great sea views, it's a no awning site all units have a sea view it's sloping so you may need clocks but we were ok, the facilities are at the top of the site usual CMC standard of spotless, great wardens, lovely coastal path walks for the dogs the one to the right of the site is better going towards the lighthouse. The pub at the top is a bit rough and expensive we had just the one and went back to our van. Overall a great site we have wanted to visit.

Good site with lovely views and great location

We stayed just one night here but would happily stay again as its location is so good. Everything was well-organised, clean and we the site staff were friendly and helpful. Our only slight proviso is that the site feels a little crowded, if one is in a central spot with caravans and campers on all sides!

The only Cliff to sit on

Could not be happier waking up to the views and sounds of the sea, perfect location for walking and the fish and chips a good also. The site staff seemed like family from the off and we will be back in the near future.

Excellent

First time we have visited this site, don’t no why we left it so long, the wardens were very friendly, and particularly helpful with the WiFi. Lovely fish & chips from the Harbour view chippy. The facilities were spotless although a refurbishment is about due. This site will definitely be on our revisit list.

Beautiful location, friendly wardens - what's not to like!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on this site - close to town where you can find an excellent tea shop, a fish and chip shop (try the pickled cockles and mussels) and a Co-op. The views are spectacular and the facilities are clean and warm. To top it, the wardens are friendly. The only suggestion I have is to place a permanent hose on the drinking water tap as I thought I had a suitable hose pipe which turned out to be a shower (I am new to this). I will definitely be back.

very nice site

found it a nice site with lovely view. as mentioned by others slopes but pitch level. mhs is a bit of a problem you cant get rid of all grey water or fill fully with fresh due to slope. walking back and fourth with a bucket is not a good idea for me due to bad back so grey water did start to smell after two days till i went out with the motor home for the day. other wise is a lovey site and handy for visiting family.

Superb location and brilliant staff

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend here . The site is a stunning location - don't be put off by the mention of slopes - arrive early and there are plenty of flat pitches and the others are not so bad ... . The views are amazing -accessibility to both cycle path and English coast path is minutes away. You can walk to Whitley Bay approx 30 minutes - we also cycled to Blyth. Worth checking out the tides so you can access St Mary's lighthouse. If you're into Yoga have a look at the Yoga station in Whitley Bay . And if you're vegetarian or vegan the food at Pulp Fiction Future Food. The facilities on the site are excellent - good showers- and the team here are so friendly and helpful - we'll certainly be going back !

Superhero Wardens

We arrived at Old Hartley with our new to us caravan after trading in our Motorhome. The relief warden was so kind assisting us pitching after we chose a difficult pitch- with being newbies we were clueless with the sloping pitches at this site. The sites we have visited previously with our Moho have been much more level. The warden was a star and even guided us through moving pitch later on in our stay when a more level pitch became available. The site is well placed for walking along the beautiful beaches and for visiting the lighthouse. This is our local area so are aware of what the site has to offer. On our leaving day our jockey wheel broke and we had to buy another one. This was after support from our super neighbour and from the warden. Nothing was a problem for these two!! We would love to return but only when we have a bit more experience. Nightmares are made of the slopes on this site for newbies! Also the facilities are tiny and are really showing their age. Thank you again for everyone who helped us. Superstars!

great views but needs an upgrade

Ive just come back from old Hartley and i must say i had a lovely weekend but unfortunately i do feel this site needs an upgrade so many things are needing attention the pitches need attention very uneven The road through the site needs tarmac the road itself needs extending through the site towards the far side of the pitches not stopping after just going half way down the hill When it rains its too boggy to reverse off the pitch so extend the pitches .....if there was a proper road this would help Toilet block needs stripping and painting Chemical waste room needs sorting as very very smelly Need another water and chemical waste point at the bottom of the hill where the bins are all in all an total overhaul of the whole site to make it more user friendly as such a pretty spot its a shame at present needs attention as this is one of my favourite sites
