Holly D. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Non-electric grass tent pitch (adults only, small, two person)

Liked: - safe, friendly atmosphere - I specifically chose this campsite as a young female solo camper and it exceeded my expectations. - really clean toilets, showers, and washing up station. Never ran out of loo roll or hand soap. - hot showers (luxury!). - great location, can walk to the coast in less than half hour. - I was initially concerned I'd been assigned a pitch with no vehicles allowed, but there were plenty of car parking spaces just a few metres away. Really wasn't an issue at all.

Local attractions

Set your compass towards the sea… whether it’s walking and cycling around Seaton Point (10 minutes’ drive), watersports down at Alnmouth beach (10 minutes) or dipping in and out of the sand dunes at Warkworth beach (15 minutes), there are plenty of coastal landscapes to choose from around here. As for the beach towns, Craster (15 minutes) is all about the kippers and art galleries. If you plan ahead, you could book a fishing trip from the harbour – or make a day of it and check out the National Trust’s Dunstanburgh Castle (15 minutes) nearby to see what life used to be like in the 14th-century fortress. Another commanding castle resides in Alnwick (10 minutes), but this town is also a sure bet for browsing bookshelves in the bookshops, ambling around gardens or rolling onto the steam railway. Those of you who fancy another beach day might want to go to its sandy shore or continue the coastal party in Amble (20 minutes), where beach huts, fish shacks, canoeing, kayaking and boating make for a classic day out.
