Our second visit here and again loved it.  We were so lucky to see the eclipse from the site, moving.  The bus service is brill you can even charge your phone while travelling.  The trip to Newcastle is well worth it but don't forget Whitley Bay- loads of places to eat, can I recommend the Italian opposite Iceland £3.95 gets you a 2 course delicious lunch with great service. I see someone has mentioned the pitches being very sloping, yes some are but we have had no problems on our 2 visits, for me the fact there were no awnings were a bonus!
