Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: The simplicity and clean nature, just a fantastic site. No fuss, just arrive, enjoy and leave. To have a bar on site open at key time was brilliant and the food van, serving the best food in the area, ideal. Will return and mention to any heading to Northumberland Coastal adventures

Disliked: None!

Electric grass and gravel campervan pitch

Liked: Such a great site, clean, friendly with good sized pitches. The communal area and little seating area that has a heater and awning is amazing too. The bar is well stocked and everyone was so friendly. On the night we visited, there was a seafood truck that made amazing food! Such a bonus. Will be back again.

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

Liked: Clean, tidy and lots of space for our tent. The bar area was open on an evening which was great!

Disliked: The lights didn’t seem to work on the toilets and showers we were in on the adult camping field.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Very clean site. Toilets and shower blocks looked brand new. Really quiet. There wasn’t much around but you could walk to little coop & cafe in Longhoughton (20mins walk). And other direction there was a nice pub Fishing Boat Inn at Boulmer (30 mins walk). The site had a little bar (the gin tin) that opened in an evening (5-9pm I think). Not too far drive from Alnwick. Would definitely stay again.

Disliked: Toilets were outside and open. But this has its positives, as they don’t smell!!

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Excellent spacious site with great facilities & pop up bar. Great location for walking cycling. Great pub in Boulmer, 2 cafes in Longhoughton. Lovely walk to Alnmouth. Didn't need WiFi. Electric hook up goes off at night but this wasn't an issue for our caravan or our stay.

Electric grass and gravel campervan pitch

Liked: Fantastic site in a great location for exploring the local area. The site was well set out, clean, and had good facilities. The onsite bar was a good addition, with plenty of variety, and with it being situated next to the playpark it was an ideal location for relaxing in the evening whilst the kids continued to play.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Wonderful site with very clean facilities, the Gin Tin was lovely. We only a couple of drinks as it was a very cold breeze on the Friday evening. Very quiet even though there were lots of families on over the weekend. This was our very first attempt at a trip away in our motorhome and our experience was brilliant and fills us with hope and excitement for the future.

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.
