I have just spent 5 nights here on my own with my 3 dogs and would definitely go again. It is right on the River Tees and you can walk for miles either way. The site is kept immaculate with some lovely touches that includes a fairy garden. They also have a games room with a pool table. Tees Barrage has a couple of seals apparently if you are lucky enough to see them. Asda is just around the corner but it's quicker to walk than drive all the way round. A couple of retail parks close by with morrisons and places to eat eg tgi's, 5 guys, pizza express.
