WHITE WATER PARK - STOCKTON-ON-TEES [131]











Wednesday 22nd July – Sunday 26th July 2009

The approach to this site is fairly straight forward if you follow the directions from the Caravan Club. This is another site that I have visited before [site 51 but not on blog] and I use to bring a ship up to the jetty at Portrack Sewage Works before the barrage was built and most of the area was desolate and run down. Since then the area has been developed and now has the barrage facilities with pubs, restaurants and hotels.

The site has all the usual club facilities with a games room for those that require it. Buses run from near the barrage and a footpath runs to a nearby Asda supermarket. More stores are in the retail park on the other side of the River Tees. The seaside resorts of Redcar and Saltburn are within driving distance and like all such facilities are much better when the sun shines. More details of local attractions are available from the information room on the site.

If you are keen on water sports then this site is ideal. The pub and restaurant at the gate belongs to one of the large nationwide chains but offers food and drink at reasonable prices.
