View of the fishing lodge and touring pitches

  • Peaceful serviced touring pitches at a fishery just outside Chatton
  • Northumberland coast and Cheviot Hills both 15 minutes' drive
  • Four fishing lakes on site, with hot food, bait sales and rod hire
Fancy a spot of fishing? In gorgeous Northumberland, Chatton Lakes Caravan Park has a fantastic four fishing lakes, giving guests supremely easy access to top-quality trout fishing right there on site. These well-stocked lakes are complemented by an equally well-appointed fishing lodge that sells bait, snacks and hot drinks and food, alongside hiring out rods. The village of Chatton is about 10 minutes’ walk away for a pub and shop; for anything else you need, you can drive to the market town of Wooler in around 10 minutes. If you’re looking to unwind, this is just the place – whether you choose to fish or not. It’s in a peaceful rural spot with views across the lovely Cheviot Hills by day and dark skies that lend themselves to some splendid stargazing by night. The touring pitches have been nicely set up with all amenities (electricity, water and waste disposal) but please note that the site has no showers or toilets. Depending on the kind of break you have in mind, you may well simply choose to spend most of your time at the lakes with your rod. There are plenty of options if you’d like to get out and about, however – the Northumberland coast is about 15 minutes’ drive away, giving you access to places like Bamburgh Castles and Alnwick Castle, and if you head inland it’s a similar length of drive to the northern tip of the Northumberland National Park.

What customers say

This picturesque and well-maintained site is praised for its peace, quiet, and beautiful surroundings, with many guests highlighting the excellent fly fishing opportunities. The friendly and helpful new owners, David and Gemma, have been warmly welcomed. Conveniently located within walking distance of a village pub serving nice food, and with good access to the coast and local walks, it's a popular choice for return visits. The lack of on-site toilet and shower facilities is noted as a potential drawback for some.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Stunning location, wonderful owners and I’m reliably informed ‘great’ fishing. Lovely club house to use in hours, and very clean and tidy site. Each pitch has electricity and a specific water tap, with is a great benefit.

Disliked It does advertise no toilets, but I feel this is an obvious gap in their service. Would suggest the owners could ‘encourage’ guests to be more thoughtful in their waste management by having specific waste type bins (bin bags were stacked up in the waste area and it’s wasn’t pleasant in the heat to be bombarded by the smell and flies) and the water water could do with a tap to rinse.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked A picturesque stay with the benefit of fishing lakes and close proximity to a small village.

The assistant in the lakes shop was welcoming in pointing us to our pitch.

Disliked Visitors overspilling their pitches, with numerous cars per group. Overspilling waste. Was a bank holiday weekend but 1 bin for the number of pitches is insufficient.

Be aware that your float fishing ticket (separate purchase) is only valid for 3 hours - you cant fish for a bit, have your dinner and come back in the evening from your pitch.

Liked Nice little site, as stated you must be self contained for toilet, showering, hook up and water at pitch, waste disposal and bins not far away,
10mins walk into village,
If you like quiet and fishing its spot on.

Disliked No wifi password offered to the dismay of the kids..🙄

Local attractions

If you look up at the Cheviot Hills from the site you’ll probably spot that they’re laced with a network of trails for walking and mountain biking. This gorgeous rural area doesn’t get heaps of visitors so you should be in for a very peaceful outing here, whichever route you pick. For a slightly easier stroll, head to the National Trust site St Cuthbert’s Cave (15 minutes’ drive), said to be the final resting place of a monk with spiritual powers. There are some lovely walks over in the Northumberland Coast National Landscape (15 minutes) as well. Seahouses (25 minutes) is a popular place for a stroll followed by a game of crazy golf and a fish supper; it’s also the starting point for boat trips to the Farne Islands where you may spot seals, puffins and other wildlife depending on the season. Add a bit of heritage to the mix with trips to haunted Chillingham Castle (five minutes), seaside Bamburgh Castle (20 minutes) and Alnwick Castle (25 minutes), famed for its Harry Potter connections.
