This is a first class CC site with excellent clean facilities and friendly, helpful staff. The Club flags up that there can be some road noise but this is dependent on where you pitch and even on the worst placed pitches I would not consider it to be too intrusive and on the better placed pitches it is non-existent. It is only a 20 minute walk into Barnard Castle which is a vibrant little town with plenty to see and do. We are very familiar with the area and visit frequently but for first time visitors Barnard Castle makes an excellent base for touring the various places of interest in the area.
