The Boathouse in County Durham

Just had the most fabulous and huge salad. . Good price especially with owners discount!

Good to have the Boathouse open again... missed it over the winter. Here's to a good, sunny season. 🌞

Very clean. Service was fast, and the food was great. Park right outside so kids can go play whilst adults have a relax inside. Lots of seating inside and some outside.

We stopped here for food before going onto crimdon dene. The food (breakfast) was served till 1pm, which was perfect. The food was absolutely beautiful, served with tea/coffee. The gentlemen who served us was lovely and friendly, I would definitely recommend it here, and would a million per cent go back xxx

Lasagne was good. Kids meals are good.

We have visited Crimdon probably 3 to 4 times a year for the past 8 years. It's very rough and ready but it's par for the course, we don't mind. There is a half decent play park at the back of the Boathouse which is a plus as well as the joining arcade but the biggest problem by far is the sheer price of the food and drink now, especially for general pub grub. I paid nearly £9 for 2 small bowls of standard fries this weekend it's madness, Download the Parkdean app and look for yourself. We have noticed footfall down this year and can only put it down to this because the majority of the caravans had cars parked outside, they just weren't in the Boathouse like usual. Such a shame because the place used to be packed on a sunny weekend with all the kids having fun but it's just not like that anymore. We now just get a taxi into Hartlepool and use the other pubs with play areas for kids they are almost half the price with better choices of food and drink. People don't mind paying to a certain point but it just feels like robbery whenever you order. When you have to feed 4 or 6 people a few times over the course of your holiday, it makes sense to use another pub even if you have to get a taxi and save yourself a fortune.

Not impressed 👎 won't be going again

Walked over from our van to get some lunch after arriving at the park. Asked at the bar about food/menus, we were advised to choose a table and order food with the table number. Bit shocked at half a lager and small coke being just under £7! Checked the menu, obviously don't know what the standard of food is but the price seemed exceptionally inflated! We decided to nip to Tall Ships, pub, 5 minute drive away and had 2 delicious, beautifully cooked, well presented meals, with drinks for £21 - that would have just covered one meal at The Boathouse!

Very expensive for what you get

Nice but busy. No dogs after 19.00hrs

I suppose it was the time we visited- it was very busy and noisy. But the food was lovely and service was great as well

Called in to visit family that had rented a weekend caravan. Had a coffee. Staff pleasant and helpfull and fun.

five of my family had main course meals every one finished and all said there meal was excellent and the liquid refreshments were excellent

Food amazing taste and portion size, great value for money, staff amazing always happy to help and friendly ate here for dinner and breakfast every day of our stay. A must visit thank you!!

Good size Plently of seats and its not attached to entertainment

App for boathouse glitches. Payment taking from my bank as pending but they didn't get it so had to pay cash and now have to wait a refund. Not good if someone has limited funds

Typical caravan park restaurant. Nothing special food over priced but ok

Nice place but waited for food far to long

Good selection of food, easy to order through the app, service is quick. We dined in a few nights, lunch too. They do a good breakfast also. We found the Saturday evening was busy, lots of people needing seats. Parking was hard on this night too, not helped as it rained. One disabled parking
