About Cragside Caravan Park

Cragside Caravan Park sits in the Pennine hills near Eastgate, in the valley country west of Bishop Auckland. The A689 runs past the site, bringing a flow of traffic through the landscape of moorland and stone-built villages that characterises this part of Durham.

The park offers caravan pitches with access to shower facilities. The Cross Keys pub is just a short walk away, making it easy to eat out without moving the van far. The setting is rural and high—this is working moorland rather than a manicured tourist destination—so expect weather to be a genuine factor in a stay here.

AVOID AVOID AVOID……… Please be very careful of this site. The warden is a vile man who takes pleasure in belittling people. I’ve never spoken to anyone so disrespectful. He’s got a stinking attitude. I’ve only given one star as I can’t give any lower. If you’re looking for somewhere safe to take your family this is not the place. PLEASE Don’t let the warden fool you he’ll say/ do anything to get your money.

Great place to have a static caravan. Some amazing scenery. Lots of hills to explore. Some lovely pubs around the area, most offering food. A small stream with some great waterfalls. The members are very welcoming and the warden most helpful.
