We stayed on the site for eight days in mid October, on arrival we recieved a very friendly greeting from the warden who could'nt have been more friendly and helpful. To say it was close to the end of season and winter shut down of the site the facilities and pitches were immaculate even after the previous weeks storms which must have taken a lot of cleaning up afterwards. Very handy for Richmond and the Drumer Boys trail from the old station is a must do!
Although we had a great holiday the only downside was the near constant noise of the traffic on the nearby A66 we did get used to it after a few days but at around 5am every morningthe heavy transport was quite noisy and enough to make us reconsider a longer stay in the future, we would however use the site for a lond weekend or stop over when on a long journey.
Conclusion, Well kept site, brilliant wardens, spotless facilities but the traffic noise stops it getting a five star rating.

Hello,
yes I'm sure you are correct in what you say, unfortunately the lower end of the site was closed off for a number of days due to suspected damage to trees after the gales which required inspection by a tree specialist also we may have been unlucky that most of the time the prevailing wind seemed to be coming from the direction of the A66, we would certainly stay again but not for eight days the next time.
Hope you enjoy what's left of the year and that you have a great 2019 season.
Kind regards
Rob
