What visitors say
This is a lovely Caravan & Motorhome Club site. It has sea views and very clean and well appointed services and facilities. The pitches are quite small ( No awnings) and also slope ( Wheel blocks / ramps needed). The wardens are very friendly and helpful. There are some lovely pubs very close by ( One is just outside the main entrance to the site). The coastal path / cycleway runs along the bottom of the site and you can cycle to Blythe, Whitley Bay & Tynemouth completely off-road.

As a disabled person i wish to request for an extra stool or chair and an additional reachable soap tray to be provided in the disabled toilet. The chair can be be used to dry yourself instead of sitting on the wet seat provide. The soap dish requested would be more accessible when showering and sitting on the existing stool. Thank you.

Very nice campsite, lovely views and nice walks to the lighthouse or Whitley Bay. Bus stop 10 mins walk down the road. Newcastle is about an 1.5 hour journey by bus and it's a lovely city to wonder round.

Lovely site, but noisy on a night with hooligans tearing up the coast road. Site staff appeared to be browbeaten, probably because the club treats them like slaves. I was sent a voucher by the CAMC I tried to use it but I hadn’t booked by X so couldn’t use it by Y. Worst part £50 a night, yes £50 and they provide water and electricity. Two water points have been removed now the only tap is on the far side of the site. One water point now has been converted into 3 serviced pitches so the club can extract more money. We could stay at a local hotel for £60 which includes breakfast. Greedy ‘club’ £37M in the bank. Lacklustre cyber security they got breached a few years ago. My info is now in the dark web. Not a club just a machine.
