Berwickshire caravan park in the grounds of 18th-century Paxton House
A 10-minute drive to Berwick-upon-Tweed beaches, castle and boat trips
Woodland walks, adventure playground, Tweed river trips from the site

Want to see how the other half lives? Pack a bag and park yourself in the walled garden at Paxton House Caravan Park. This Berwickshire pile was built in the Palladian style in 1763 for a nobleman who planned to live in it, then inherited a castle and moved there instead. Staying in this small park on the 80 acres of grounds, visitors can take in this popular landmark at their leisure, with river walks and boat trips down the Tweed and/or by delving into the history of the house and its collections of art and furniture. The kids can let off steam on the adventure playground and follow woodland trails to discover wildlife and maybe encounter a fairy or two. For practical things likes pubs and grub and shops, as well as sandy beaches, estuary walks, sea safaris and fishing trips, Berwick-upon-Tweed is a brilliantly convenient 10 minutes' drive away. It’s also got a top castle, and a hefty handful of medieval forts and towers… and you can take a horseback ride down the beach like some country squire with a walled garden…

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Check in was very good, the walled garden was nice enough and the local pub restaurant was less than a mile from the site. Lot's of really great walks around the grounds, but not everything is rosey in the garden.

Disliked: While the site is largely good, the one thing that cannot be overlooked is the condition, maintenance and cleanliness of the toilet block, it was an utter disgrace. We arrived on Saturday afternoon and the toilet block looked well used and in need of a good clean, sadly no cleaning took place over the next few days, we left on the Monday and the block was a disgusting mess that was on the verge of being a health hazard.

Perfect on the quieter days, less so on the busy days.

Liked: Lovely setting with some beautiful walks around the grounds. Pleasant surprise to find toilet and shower facilities as they are not advertised. Excellent price compared to others.

Disliked: Got too busy on the bank holiday with some visitors being a bit noisy. Also seem to disregard the rules regarding dog poo, which is not the fault of the site! The very noisy wedding singer who could be heard over a mile away in the village wasn’t ideal. Pick your days carefully if you want a quite and peaceful holiday.

Local attractions

History is never far away in these parts, and the glimpses you’ll get of Lindisfarne half an hour's drive away will doubtless lure you out during your stay. Wild and peaceful, the ruins of the priory and the castle point to the long and turbulent human past of the place while the colonies of puffins and waders carry on regardless. Check tide times if heading out by car; boat trips to and round make a leisurely way to visit with seal and puffin spotting possibilities en route. There are many more castles to peruse, if that’s your penchant: Bamburgh, still occupied but open to visitors, is half an hour’s drive away. Despite being 700 years old, Alnwick (45 minutes) is also still home to the descendants of its original owners and a must-see for JK Rowling fans as the film location for Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. The little villages of Beadnell and Seahouses (45 minutes away) form the gateway to the Northumbria Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a sea-hugging zone stuffed with chances to go rockpooling and paddleboarding, plus coastal paths and bike trails as well as a haven for wildflowers and (yes, really) wild cattle. Half an hour’s drive gets you to the edge of Northumbria National Park, packed with Roman remains, climbing in the Cheviot Hills and paths round Kielder Water. Further afield, the museums, culture, lively pubs and (of course) the castle of Edinburgh are very doable for a day trip, an hour and 20 minutes away.
