A lovely site, very clean and well maintained, the facilities were excellent especially the warm shower block. This was our first visit in October but will not be our last. The easy walk into Barnard was very nice and the bus service back to the site was convenient.
Stayed on the site for 3 nights at the end of September. Nice clean site and facilities and helpful wardens. Large field to exercise our dog. Walk along the road into Barnard Castle, about 20 minutes,or a little longer to walk along the side of the river from the site
What a lovely site, the wardens are always friendly and will do whatever they can to make you feel welcome, they keep all the facilities to the highest standards of cleanliness. We used the mobile chippy on our stay this time, and the Fish & Chips were great with what I term as old fashioned mushy peas. there is some road noise if you park at the top of the site, but the location to the town offsets that issue.
Just spent three lovely night's at Barnard Castle site,
a lovely clean and well cared for site with immaculate facilities, (thank you warden's), we will certainly be returning.
Called into Barny for a three night visit before going home, would definitely recommend it, nice walk into the town.
Wardens very friendly and very clean facilities.
Stayed for a week in October and were blessed with excellent weather.
The site is well located for many local attractions and High Force, Bowes Museum, Beamish should not be missed. The town Of Barnard Castle is within walking distance ( steep climb on return!) and should be visited with its many excellent independent shops.
Usual high CC standards, but the friendliness and helpful attitude of the wardens merits a special, and above average, rating.
Only downside is the road noise on pitches adjacent to the road, and it is well worth seeking out a pitch as far away from the road as possible.
we ill return, to enjoy the site and take advantage of the year long admission tickets to Beamish !
This is a lovely site but the gravel on all pitches is impossible for a wheelchair user or mobility scooter which is a shame as it a nice site well laid out. it's quite dim of a night insufficient lighting. Facilities are clean, could use the disabled facilities as I couldn't get my wife off the pitch due to her mobility scooter getting stuck in the deep gravel. The main road is noisy and you are right next to it, there are no pavements to go alon to get into town for quite a way and it's a very busy road. Nice big dog walk area, site is very clean, so sad we wouldn't come back because of the pitches.
We stayed at this site for a late season weekend and loved it. Friendly, helpful wardens made us feel welcome from the start and the site was immaculate. Nice walk with the dogs into Barnard Castle plus the site has a meadow to one side for dog walking. Well spaced pitches, all hardstanding. In bed for nine the first night after a busy week and so peaceful we slept till eight next morning - bliss. Recommended for a peaceful stay but with plenty to see nearby, good location to use as a base for exploring the area.
Nice site, just spoilt by the road noise as our pitch was only over the hedge from the main road !!!! Staff were very helpful and the site well maintained
We were on our way back to Scotland from the midlands and decided to take an unscheduled stop. We were so glad we did as Teesdale Barnard Castle popped up as our next CC site on route and it was a topper! Great location, great staff, great pitch and superb countryside walks in to a great town. The only minor irritant was the nearby road and fast noisy traffic for the pitches on that side. Do not let this put you off; we stayed another night as we liked the site and Barnard Castle so much.
