A Pleasant Surprise!
Booked this site for 4 nights quite last minute as just wanted a short stay en route to Berwick-upon-Tweed. Book in was very good. The wavy haired male warden (apologies for not knowing your name!) was very polite, explaining where to wait until it was our turn to book in & the long, dark haired lady who booked us in was also very polite. Extensive choice of pitch & pitches spacious.
Whilst on site we spoke with the short haired female warden who was very helpful when we asked about walking along the river. The other male warden did tell our 10 year old Son off for cycling 'the wrong way' but our Son accepted it & for the rest of our stay, he scootered & cycled 'the right way'. As parents, we understand that kids have to follow 'rules' & the rules are there for everyone's safety.
The site is meticulously maintained. The floral displays are some of the best we've seen at any club site & given that the sites have had no budget this year for plants, full credit to the wardens.
Have never seen so many baby frogs/toads on site before! Our Son & the friends he made loved this!
Only a 5 minute walk from the River Tees & you can sit & while away time watching the seals. There is a nature reserve a short walk away.
There is a Beefeater pub/restaurant just outside the site. We ate there with the government eat out to help out scheme. Food is pretty average but service excellent.
Supermarket & retail park a 5 min drive.
This site is great; in a central location for exploring the area & we will definitely return.
