Spindlestone Farm

Camping field overlooking Bamburgh Castle and Northumbrian countryside
A 30-minute walk to Budle Bay beach; 25-minute drive to Alnwick Castle
Small, back-to-basics farm site near pubs, restaurants and shops

Spindlestone Farm is a peaceful place to stay in the gorgeous Northumbrian countryside, with views of Bamburgh Castle and just five minutes’ drive to Budle Bay beach. With only a very few pitches available on the farm’s camping field, guests get all the perks of camping in a spectacular location with none of the crowds. Bamburgh (five minutes) has a choice of pubs, a couple of posh restaurants, a deli and of course a famed castle and a long, long beach for splashing about on, so there is plenty for all the family to do. Seahouses is a 15-minute drive away for a handy small supermarket and plenty of fish and chip shops as well as boat cruises out to the Farne Islands. The site is dog friendly, but as there is livestock nearby, your pets must be kept under close control. Situated next to a very quiet country road, access to the site is easy, and it’s 10 minutes’ drive from the A1, making it an ideal stopover for anyone travelling to and from Scotland. Facilities are basic and include a tap. There are no showers but there is a long-drop loo.
