  • We paid £56 a night including £16 to take our dogs to a Parkdean resort and stay in their touring area. We were disgusted by our pitch, the toilets, bins and had to watch where we walked. Find out where.

    Enlightening vlog. I see Pitchup reviews reflect exactly how you showed the site to be. Thought CAMC was expensive at £34/night, but it makes their clean and well maintained sites appear a bargain. Surprised to see how many pitches were occupied though! Great vlog, I think your review was very constrained and professional, you let the site speak for itself. Shows how important research is and don’t assume the more expensive the better it is. Wouldn’t encourage me to try any of their sites.
    All the best to you both.

    Well I never, Willie and I stayed at a Parkdean Resort in Nairn last week. We were £126 for two nights. Like you we were at the ARSE end of the camp site. Very similar set up to yours although our pitch was level and we had gravel. The pitches were quite close together and felt slightly claustrophobic. The toilets were clean, but very dangerous coming out the shower as very slippery, nowhere to put anything and only 3 showers for vans, caravans and tents. The gents toilets had a few broken seats so hubby told me. The site was clean enough but very very expensive. We went out site to the harbour and to a nice cafe for breakfast, then walked along a lovely promenade and they did have Blue flag beach for about the 4th time in a row. I did leave comments on Pitchup who we booked with and also Trust pilot. We could have gone into Nairn, but it was very warm and I was getting hot and bothered. The lesson is for us NO MORE PARKDEAN. Very funny vlog though guys. Jan and Willie x🤬

    The camping lark in the UK varies from being fabulous to terrible. The brass neck of some sites in charging X amount for virtual middens is unbelievable. Contrastingly, some sites are beautifully maintained and reasonably priced. As a solo cyclist I've been offered pitches for up to £35pppn and as low as £7pppn; neither with 'hook-up' The vast number of campers i've met (throughout UK and EU) have been thoroughly decent, respectful people. Some however have no sense of sharing space and will, if not stopped, quaff the night/morning away whilst not listening to the drum and bass they're inflicting on their near neighbours. I quite like drum and bass too! As a rule of thumb I avoid the larger campsites that are close to major attractions and use smaller sites that are run well ( but not by a Camp Commandant )

There’s a secret garden to explore (dogs are welcome, on leads) and a longer walk or cycle ride to Womack Staithe, Horsefen Road where you can watch the boats on the broads. I recommend that for a trip.

    We stayed in a lodge near the old entrance to crimdon dene a few months ago, we could see the dunes cafe from our lodge, it was a beautiful lodge i must add. On the first night, after dark, we noticed how many cars used that little road. The next day we had a walk down the lane to the beach side but soon realised it was a dead end road, later my wife humourously joked its doggers, oh how we laughed. Me being me, i googled Hartlepool dogging sites and guess what, it was that road that you walked down, also used for drugs drops! Nice informative video chaps to a not very good sit from what we saw driving through it using the designated drive roads

    We stayed at parkdean about 15 hrs ago in a static caravan , the caravan was lovely also the site was ok and they didn't have touring pitches then for caravans or motorbikes or tents,
    But we did find that the beach was full of broken glass bottles also lots of rubbish. We did speak to a local person who did say that a lot of bottles especially the plastic ones are often thrown overboard along with lots of rubbish. But its no reason for the dog poo to be every where. and Being the owner of two Labradors it anoyes me when people don't pick it up.There's no excuse for it.

    We unfortunately went to parkdean at sunny dale last year. The toilets were portacabins, ehu posts just sticking out of the ground, most at an angle due to being driven in to. The ground was deeply rutted grass, as far from any entertainment block as you could get. We complained & got a move to Skegness site. Toilets were brick built but presumably the staff were not allowed in to clean them. Urinals leaking over the floor, seemed like every joint in the pipe work leaked. More toilet roll on the floor than anywhere else. People partying till 4 in the morning with a boombox system. Security were called several times but zoomed off to save themselves. If parkdean were the last campsite operating you couldn’t pay us to go!! Love the vlogs😊

    This was the first ever place we stayed when we got a caravan for the very first time.... nightmare. It is known locally as 'Criminal Dene' and unless you've been one of the people who have a static then I would recommend to stay away.

    You could have bought a house in Horden just down the road for less than that. We used to go to Crimden dean when I was a kid in the 60's there was a steam train from Horden you could catch before the line was for the pits only for transporting coal ,there used to be a fun fair and the dean had open lawns with paddeling pools and a shack where you could buy a pot of hot water you had to bring your own tea and milk, it looks like they took over the old car park for tourers the original " park homes" were travellers so tells a story on how the site developed.

    In France we use Camping Carparks Sites, Lifetime Membership €5 & sites are €10 to €14 per night & they have 500 sites in France including EHU & WiFi
    Spain 5* Sites are around €15 to €25 per night & we only stay on Mediterranean Beachside Sites

    Went to Crimdon Dene around 2012. The worst place I have ever had the misfortune to stay in. Staff can’t be bothered, no cleaners, filthy showers and toilets. Obviously not a lot has changed. With the site looking out to sea and the Dene to walk through, it’s a great location.
    But so hard to believe how bad it really is

    We went to a parkdean in Cornwall and it was crap, we then tried again at skipsea and it was even worse. Our dogs had another dog go for them but luckily, they're small so we could pick them up. We also saw a caravanner just chuck they're bag of rubbish on to the next pitch.
    Funnily enough, the food in the restaurant was awesome which was just such a shame 😢

    As soon as you said Park Dean Resorts I knew what was coming. I've had the unfortunate experience of staying at them a couple of times in their statics and, well it was cheap, that's all I will say. Awful places, security on the door speaks volumes, and they do have to do more than just stand there if you get my drift.

    At the risk of taking away from this brilliant vlog and starting a dog poo conversation heres a tip for dog owners… slip a folded dog poo bag in the back of your phone case… you always manage to have that with you dont you and then you always have a bag…
    As a dog owner I get peed off ( ironically) picking up after other dogs that dont belong to me.
    At the very least, get it off the path where kids go.

    The yearly site fee's near the entertainment are only £12000.I once heard someone call the place Criminal Dene we looked at statics for sale at Crimdon and the salesperson described Crimdon Dene as a Rolls Royce quality resort at which point we beat a hasty retreat.Parkdean at Whitley Bay a bit further north on the other hand is a fantastic place.About half a mile south of this place is a lovely CL site with access to the clean part of the beach.That CL place is a gem
