  • Small touring park less than five minutes' drive from Seahouses
  • A five-minute drive from Bamburgh, with two castles within 10 miles
  • Spacious farmland site where dogs, families and barbecues are welcome
Breathe easy on a break spent at Westfield Paddock Caravan Site, a small, privately owned and peaceful touring park for those with on-board facilities. On the edge of the gorgeous Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the family-run park is surrounded by gorgeous farmland with lovely views, and it's family-friendly too. Dogs are also welcome as long as they’re well behaved. Other strolls include one towards the village of Seahouses about a mile away for a chip supper, although you can also stay well fed and watered with the assistance of the pubs and restaurants within the local area. Food shops are within easy reach when you're foraging for yourself, and barbecues are permitted at the park. Set the grill up at your pitch then head over to the service area to sort errands with amenities including chemical waste disposal, a water tap and rubbish and recycling facilities. Also on site is a handy information caravan stacked with leaflets to help you decide on days out – which might include wildlife-spotting boat trips to the Farne Islands, a round of sea-view golf or outings to the stunning coastal castles at Bamburgh and Dunstanburgh… Bringing bikes along (or hiring locally) is a fine idea too – the area’s well served for bike paths, and the Sustrans Coast and Castles South route passes by the park.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: We absolutely loved this site. We stayed for a fortnight in early July and will definitely be back. It's the most peaceful site we've ever stayed on, with lovely views across the fields to Seahouses and the coast. The walk into Seahouses was a pleasant 15 minute stroll, and a few minutes longer down to the lovely beach, where we enjoyed fish and chips from Lewis's Fish Bar. It was so wonderful to be on a site where people aren't blasting music day and night or talking/shouting at each other at all hours of the night; this is a site where people go for some peace, and it is very much appreciated. We are quite happy to use our own caravan facilities, so the lack of toilet block was no problem at all - a serviced pitch was a big plus. The pitches are spacious and the owners are growing trees between which will help with privacy and wind once matured. We did have some strong winds which did challenge our awning but it held up fine, just bring strong pegs! Loved it - such a joy to stay in a quiet little site in one of the most beautiful areas of the country, from where we could explore lots of local sights and enjoy the wonderful Northumberland coastline.

Disliked: Nothing!

Route directions

For the most straightforward route from the A1, follow the B1342 through Bamburgh where it turns into the B1340. Just after the stone buildings on the left and wildlife pond on the right take the narrow road to the right signposted Shoreston. After a mile, at the small crossroads, Westfield Paddock is opposite you.

Local attractions

Stick around Seahouses for the golf club, horse riding and afternoons at the spa, or set off for sandy times on North Sunderland’s shores (all about five minutes’ drive). Wildlife-spotting boat trips to the Farne Islands leave from the village, with chances to peer at puffins, seals and dolphins during the tour. Bamburgh Castle’s about the same distance from the park as Seahouses, and a beachside walking road from the site means it’s possible to reach it with a ramble of around three miles. More golf, with views across the coast, is to be had at Bamburgh Castle Golf Club (5 minutes’ drive); alternatively, continue explorations of stately structures at Dunstanburgh Castle – another beachside fortification dating back to the 14th century – and Alnwick Castle (under 25 minutes away). Alternatively, take trips to the historic Etal Estate (yet another stunning structure in the area) and take a ride on the most northerly narrow-gauge steam train in England, the Heatherslaw Light Railway (35 minutes’ drive).
