Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked: Facilities excellent, lovely very clean site, owners constantly on site making sure everything ok, luckily it was burger night when we arrived, very nice. Went from there to Chain Bridge Bee farm, a personal recommendation from the owner, absolutely brilliant. Owner found a watch in the shower, she must have rung everyone who stayed that night to see if they had lost the said watch, it was my partners! They sent it back by registered post, that’s above & beyond by anyone’s standards & very very much appreciated.

Disliked: Nothing

Kath G. Jul 2023

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked: A little pocket of heaven. If you want slightly 'off grid' camping and campervanning this is for you! Facilities were basic but executed brilliantly blending in with this organic farms ethos of living with nature. We had everything we required- hot showers, clean toilets and a cute washing up cabin which ended up being the hub of the holiday and a chance to meet like minded people. Would definitely recommend and loom forward to visiting again...soon!!!

Disliked: nothing...just divine.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Kath, Thank you for taking the time to review our campsite and glad that you enjoyed the ethos here. You're welcome anytime! Best wishes, Alison & Mark

Local attractions

Sitting in an area so rich in history, it’s no surprise that this site’s close to several stately structures. Alnwick Castle – that of Harry Potter fame – is a 45-minute drive and has coastal views to take in on the way, while visits to Ford & Etal Estate (25 minutes) get you two castles in one, along with bread baking experiences at the mill (in summer), cuppas in a traditional tea room and visits to horses in an equestrian centre. River paddling’s also popular here in warmer weather and on the way home you can stop off at the Grade I-listed Royal Border Bridge (15 minutes) over the Tweed as dusk falls to see the arches lit up in lots of colours. The Georgian town square and hall of Kelso are a 40-minute drive, along with the abbey and racecourse. And for art, architecture and everything in between? Shepherd’s Rest is an hour and 20 minutes from the cultural hubs of Newcastle and Edinburgh.
