Fabulous . So tranquil . All very clean. Staff lovely . Highly recommend , and will be back . Late booking , so glad we could get in . 
Pitches good . 
Lovely river walks . Was a coffee shop , but didn’t get chance to use. Perfect for Beamish. 

Peace and tranquility

Just come back from this beautiful peaceful site and can't wait to go back. We stayed on T3 fully serviced, ok so they aren't level but went prepared and it took 5 minutes extra to set up. That's what caravanning is all about.

What a find!

A lovely clean site perched right nect to the lovely Finchale Abbey (Priory).
Facilities were clean and tidy.
The park is looked after exceptionally well and looks lovely. The Easter break didnt mean it was busy but a steady flow of arrivals from the day visitors at the priory went unnoticed.
The walk along the river was lovely and situated 200metres from the park entrance is a gorgeous acre of grass with picnic tables should you prefer to be away from those happy to park on spaces as you come through the gates to the Priory/Abbey.
We have 5 dogs and they were no problem as long as they were on their leads.
A walk shown on the park map is worth the walk from the site, passed HMP Frankland but it is a busy lane to from the park so be aware.



A beautiful location for a touring park

Finchale abby caravan Park is beautiful. It is well cared for and very clean. The walks and bike tracks have a great back drop through woodland and the is also a river. The toilet block is very clean and showers are hot. The people in the shop are very friendly also. It is a great location to use as your base while visiting adventure Valley, Beamish, Durham Cathedral and Durham Castle well basically anywhere in the North East of England there's some terrific beaches on the east coast you can visit

Finchale abbey caravan park

Well this wasn’t something I thought I would enjoy too much at this time of year as I like my comforts but what an amazing night and experience!!!   This cute little pod was lovely!!!     It was very clean… we did push the two single beds together and popped a king size sheet over it( you have to take own bedding etc).   The one thing that would have been nice was maybe a little kettle in the pod I love my coffee as soon as I wake up and didn’t want to hang around untill 10am when the shop opens on site….   The location of the pods is fantastic beautiful views and plenty turkeys running around ha!!

Pod life

First time visitors. Some pitches are sloping but ours was great. Nice view of Abbey. Very quiet. Owners very helpful, especially Ann. Great walks along nearby river accessed from site. Not far from park and ride to Durham. Coming again soon.

Lovely quiet site right next to a beautiful 12th century Abbey ruin.

Cracking site, great staff, great dog walks.
way too many people moaning about the kids in the Abbey, which the campsite have no control over.
yes, its not flat, yes you'll need chocks
showers nice and hot, as well as clean, a great view.
the only downside was we only had one night here before heading further north.
We felt all the staff we encountered to be helpful, polite and happy, sometimes its how you talk to people..
would highly recommend, and yes, we'll be back

On route for our Scottish Roadtrip

Just back after three nights and have nothing but good things to say about the place. Well maintained site which has the most beautiful abbey ruins as a backdrop, what’s not to love. The showers were clean, nice and hot, more importantly you get a decent length of time to shower between button presses. Nice cafe although sadly no plant based milk options for a brew but not the end of the world. With regards to other comments I’ve read I really don’t see how children playing in the neighbouring abbey run by English heritage can result in a negative comment towards the site, yes some of the pitches aren’t level but it’s stated when booking and  they’re really not that bad. To say the showers are dirty is picky as I found them to be more than acceptable and maybe if I got my white glove out I’d find a bit of dust and the odd cobweb! We really enjoyed beamish living museum and we’re very grateful to be sent a discount code saving 25% by the site. Looking forward to returning again soon

Lovely place

Two nights in our motorhome. Down by the River Wear with the historic Finchale Priory as a backdrop and with farmland surrounding. Well patronised but quiet.  Good amenities and the toilet/shower blocks were spotless, probably the cleanest I've seen anywhere. Strongly recommended.

Quiet clean with delightful scenery

My first stay on a site after years of wild camping in nature..a revelation.. after 2 nights I feel like I've had a week at a spa! Immaculate facilities, quiet, respectful guests. Friendly flexible staff especially security guard Jack and his feathered friends..this solo camper with dogs will be back asap... I'm ruined !!

Stunning location, a peaceful, stress free, friendly environment to chill and unwind
