This slightly sloping site has one of the best views on the network, for it's perched on a grassy clifftop overlooking the Lighthouse on St Mary's Island, a local nature reserve with a bird population of national importance. Whitley Bay is a traditional holiday resort with all the fun of the seaside including a superb sandy beach and indoor leisure pool. The Metro and local buses will take you directly into Newcastle's city centre for shopping in Eldon Square. Cross the River Tyne to Gateshead and discover the Metro Centre, Europe's largest indoor shopping centre with restaurants, cinemas and entertainment facilities.

A fabulous site for an active holiday, with some pitches overlooking Kielder Water, the largest man-made lake in Northern Europe, and backed by trees. It's a haven of peace and quiet. There is no need to leave the area to find every kind of outdoor sport, from the water-based varieties (indoor swimming pool and licensed restaurant 5 minutes walk from the site), through Birds of Prey Centre and orienteering to bird watching, cycling (bicycle hire available nearby), crazy golf and just plain walking. For the youngsters there's an adventure playground just outside the site. Yet despite this hive of activity there's marvellous quietude, and if you watch carefully you'll see shy deer and even red squirrels. Note: Midges can be troublesome Jun-Aug - an insect repellent is advised.

The site is in beautiful Wensleydale (where the famous cheese has been made for nearly a century) between the River Ure and the market town of Hawes, with river frontage. Brown Moor completes the third of the Club's trio of sites within the boundary of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, serving the northern part. Hawes is one of the highest market towns in England (850 feet above sea level) and has immense character. Anyone with a reasonable pair of walking shoes will want to explore further afield, with the beauties of the Dales on the doorstep. The Pennine Way passes close to the site and tracks made in past centuries make it easy to explore on foot.
