OK, to start with I grew up down the road in Whitley Bay so I know this area very well, and it is a most beautiful bit of the coast. You get a great view from the site of St Mary's lighthouse, and view across Whitley Bay to the Spanish City. There are three pubs that do food, a chip shop and a Coop all within walking distance. Seaton Sluice is particularly worth a visit to see the harbour and the cut. Seaton Hall isn't more than a 5 minute drive, and you also have Whitley Bay, Cullercoats and Tynemouth all easily accessible. There's a bus stop on the main road if you're in a motorhome and don't want to drive, and it's a main route so services are frequent. Site facilities are fine, they are spotlessly clean, and about right for the size of the site. A notice said they will be upgraded, as they are starting to look a little old fashioned but that doesn't bother me. The site feels a little compact. The Club has done the best it can to make sure everyone gets a decent view, but you get a small feeling of being like sardines in a can. Our pitch was just enough gravel to get the carvan on, then put the car alongside. I don't think I saw any pictches with awnings but I could be wrong. I don't think this can be helped, unless they did a major remodelling and increased the size of the pitches to the standard caravan + awning + vehicle size. There's no playground or area for kids to kick a ball around. My main caveat is the price. It's an expensive site, and for a basic hard standing pitch with no awning, I think it is overpriced. We'd just come form a CL site in Scotland that was a fully serviced pitch with awning, for £24 a night. We chose this site as we were visiting for my mum's birthday, and preferred to be close to Whitley Bay. I doubt I'd book again unless prices drop a lot out of high season. There is a public carpark against the south edge of the site; I'd suggest you don't choose a pitch next to it as it gets the usual night time visits from cars who want to test their stereos. It needs locking up at night but that's an issue for the Club and local residents to take action on.
