We do tend to use this site to visit family in the area but we would still use it if they were not there. A typical club site easy to reach, well maintained and with friendly wardens. The site is flat but most pitches are grass where we would prefer hardstanding but we have never had any problem with the grass. There is some road noise from the A19 during the day but not serious although we have never heard any problem with the road to the hotel. Asda is within walking distance at the back of the site but if you want to drive to one or get fuel then Morrisons at Teesside Park is a better bet. You are very close to the A66 and this gives easy access to most of the attractions in the area.
