Motorhome Stopovers in Hamsterley
Hamsterley is a small village in County Durham, sitting in the valley between Weardale and Teesdale in the western part of the county. It lies close to Hamsterley Forest — a large Forestry England woodland that draws cyclists and walkers — and is accessible from the A68, which runs north–south through this part of County Durham connecting the A66 near Barnard Castle to the A693 further north.
It’s a quiet corner of the county, and Motorhome Stopover Club members have shared verified overnight stops in the area — handy for anyone exploring the Durham dales or looking for a peaceful stop off the A68 touring route.
