On Tripadvisor, Sleningford Watermill Caravan and Camping Park has an impressive rating of 4.5/5 from 279 reviews.

One recent guest posted this review: “This is the third year we have stayed at the site. Every trip keeps getting better than the previous.

“The site has the River Ure running through it. This part of the river is great for swimming, paddle boarding kayaks etc….. and we did it all. It is easy to supervise young children here too.

“The site itself is clean, tidy and the facilities are second to none.

“The staff are friendly and the shop is well equipped.

“There is a great walk from the site to the Bull Inn pub in West Tanfield. The path follows the river and is only around 1 mile each way so fine for young kids. We will be returning next year.”

Elsewhere on Tripadvisor, a visitor said their stay at Coxons Farm Glamping Pods was “perfect”.

Their review continued: “Every little detail was thought of. It was in a village but at the rear of the farm with amazing views & so quiet which we like. When we arrived there was also all the little extras to start us off including milk in the fridge,& everything was spotlessly clean. Tom who runs the place certainly knows his stuff & there wiil be no hesitation on re-visiting the area on staying here again.”
