On entering the park a view of the Priory meets you.
The park has beautiful views overlooking the priory and the river which change through each season.
A bridge crosses the river near to the priory and allows easy access to country walks on the banks of the river Wear.
The abbey and surrounding area are at their most beautiful in the snow, roads around the park are maintained and gritted to ensure smooth and easy access to any caravaners who are brave enough to venture out in the snow!

Spring blooms around the park and the willow trees are also showing signs of new life.
Main areas of interest around the park are clearly signposted.
The peacocks are always a favourite and often pop down to the shop to see what treats are on offer!
If you are lucky you may even catch a glimpse of the local wildlife.
Pheasants are seen and heard all around the park and geese and heron can be seen on the river.
