Also take a look at the car boot sale held on Sedgefield Racecourse and the Sedgefield Farmers Market as well as Hardwick Park which is just of the A177 near Sedgefield.

      Hi Em, It was lovely and the food was tasty and reasonably priced we thought too. The car booty is normally quite good with a good few stalls there - well worth a poke around. All the best, David & Rachel ❤️

      The booty is normally huge depending on the weather, if you coincide with the farmers market it you have a good few hours out abs some bargains too! Rachel 💕

    Thanks very much for this very nicely put together and informative review. We're planning to head for Britain (Yorkshire) for the summer and will be getting the van out of storage and setting off. Donnewell Farm is exactly the sort of site that suits us - a CL with hardstanding and serviced pitches ... One of our regular trips is to the North of Scotland to visit family graves, and are thinking of spending a day at the Beamish Museum ... so Donnewell Farm could be a great place to stop over. It looks great in your video - thanks again.

    Great informative video. We have never stayed at a CL so really good to see one. It looked lovely. We don't know why UA-cam unsubscribed us from your channel but we are back again now, it was quite a surprise to see the subscribe button as we subbed weeks ago. It's a mystery sometimes, thanks for sharing the video! 😍😍

      Welcome back 😀 - pleased it was useful - there are some amazing CLs with a varying degree of facilities - some of them beat mainstream campsites! We are trying to do a mix of sites so will have some more coming up very soon. Have a great weekend - all the best, David & Rachel 👍

    Lovely quality CL site and such good value too. Nice views. Convenient for Sedgefield too. Very quiet walk down the lane. Rural yet close to everything. Hardwick park looks well worth a visit. Easy to spend ages there! Watch your hotdog! Definitely fancy going there 👍😊🧙‍♂️

    Love Sedgefield, a beautiful little village not too far from anywhere, but you could still be miles from anywhere, i love it :-) All the pubs are brilliant and dog friendly. The C L Site looked a lot better than i expected tbh, but was nt really sure what to expect i suppose, another site ( prpbs one of our first) we will be going to while we get to the van, again, when it come :-)

    Hi guys, been watching a few of your vids and really enjoying them, quite a few on my doorstep (Thornaby) I enjoyed this vid too, although I do think the site is a bit overpriced for a cl without any toliet or shower facilities ? Thanks for sharing 👍

      Thank you for watching. Oh Thornaby is close by! (Used to work there) Fellow North Eastener 🙌 it wasn’t cheap but you can get a grass pitch no electricity loads cheaper. I loved the walk to Sedgefield as it’s such a busy foodie place! 💕Rachel

    That looked like a great place to stay. Do you have to pay for access to the dog walking field in addition to the site fee, or is the fee only payable if you not staying on the site? I would stay there just to let our dogs have access to the field! Thanks for another great recommendation. We’re off the the Isle of Wight and the New Forrest at the weekend. Thankfully we have several stops on route there and back! 😁

      Morning! There are 2 fields and they are £8 an hour which is really cheap, however they are booked up in advance. I noticed that they last appointment is 7pm and the first is 8am and being a bit cheeky went in after the last one and early morning before the first appointment. 🤣
      Ohhhh that sounds a lovely trip … I would love to go to the Isle of Wight … I went when I was 5 and still remember it… enjoy 💕 Rachel

    Loving your videos. Like your coffee table made with the chopping board. Can I ask if you use a 29” leg with that or 27”. Looking to do the same 😀.

      Thank you so much for your lovely kind comments Sarah 💕 Glad you found the video with it in. I do have to say (but don’t let David know) it is the most ingenious use of the chopping board and a perfect little table for a couple of glasses. The flat back bit also makes it sit nicely against the back doors! 💕
