Although this is a growing & improving craven/camping site once a year, 1st weekend of September the "Stormin the castle" motorcycle rally takes place. It's been going some 20 years this year.
About 3 or 4 thousand turn up & have a great time.
The local community welcome the bikers in pubs & shops without issue, although I'm sure the volume of the music is an issue for some.
The site itself is in a nice location with a small but perfectly formed castle nestling in the trees. Open fields surround the caravan/ holiday home areas.
The castle has the amenities located within ie bars & food.
The site is located in the area of weardale & teesdale, perfect for visiting local attractions & the city of Durham.
I would certainly recommend it both for the bike rally & a place to take a vacation. read more
