More worthy than a one night stay

A very convenient site located just off the A66 at Gilling West. Check in is simple and efficient and you are given a guide as to which pitches are available so you can aim your unit in the right general direction. The grass pitches back straight onto the A66 so will possibly suffer more from noise than the far end of the site. We ended up in a large cul de sac which looked quite new - massive pitches and very level separated by a small grass area and hedging to the rear. Very handy for the service point and the facilities block. Facilities here are spotless and although I couldn't confirm look brand new inside - they are kept very clean by the wardens who look after this site and are a credit to the club. Lots of things to see and do within easy reach from the site if you're staying more than a night as a journey breaker on your way north or south. Catterick gives you the supermarkets, a ride towards Richmond and Leyburn will let you see tanks on the main road and on the nearby ranges - also very handy should you wish to visit the Wensleydale Railway or the Creamery for some cheese! We enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave after four nights - the only criticism is the noise from the A66 but you soon adjust to it and it blends into the background. TV reception is good but the wind can disturb the trees at the edge of the site which may disrupt your picture. WiFi reception is excellent and speed was acceptable.
