Route directions

Postcode is NE49 9PG and GPS Coordinates - N54.98620° / W2.42231° Driving Our campsite is only 5 minutes away from the A69 although some visitors prefer to use the B6318 (the roman military road) which runs in parallel to the A69 along the valley. Our campsite is only 600m South of the Military Rd. If you are travelling from the West (M6) on the A69 the simplest route is to turn left off the A69 for Greenhead and then right on to the B6318. This is the Military Road running alongside Hadrian's wall. Continue on the B6318 passing the Milecastle Inn on your right. After the Milecastle Inn, follow the road for around 1 mile and you will see a sign for our campsite asking you to turn right. Take the right-hand turn and the campsite is a short distance along this road on your left. If you are travelling from the East (M1/A1) continue on the A69 beyond Hexham and Haydon Bridge until you reach the sign for Melkridge village (a staggered junction at the foot of a hill). At this junction take the right turn, following the road for around 1.5miles up a hill (the first part of this road is a little steep) You will see the campsite on your right. Travelling from the East (M1/A1) on the A69 (and towing a caravan), when you get to Corbridge take the A68 north towards the village of Chollerford. Now take the B6318 military road towards Greenhead. After some distance you will pass the Twice Brewed Inn and The Sill on your left and follow the road beyond this point for around 1.5miles. Follow the brown tourist sign for Hadrian's Wall Campsite and turn left. The campsite is a short distance along this road on the left. Train We have a lovely old and traditional train station in Haltwhistle and the station has a good service across the Tyne valley from the East coast line via Newcastle upon Tyne and the West coast line via Carlisle. Bus The Arriva bus company operate the 685 and the X85 on the Tyne valley between Newcastle and Carlisle. The nearest stop to our campsite is at Melkridge Green and from there you will have a 25/30 minute walk. Do call us if you are arriving by bus as we may be able to collect you from the bus stop. The Hadrian’s Wall Country bus, the AD122 operates in the summer (Good Friday – end September) along the Military Rd. with stops of interest along Hadrian’s wall. Our closest stops are at the twice brewed Inn or the Milecastle Inn If you get lost feel free to call us on 01434 320495 and we will be happy to guide you in!!
