  • Well-maintained rural site in a mature woodland two miles from Hexham
  • A mile from Hadrian's Wall and close to Kielder Forest Park
  • Launderette and modern bathrooms on site
With Hexham two miles to the south and Hadrian’s Wall a mile to the north, there’s a whole lot of history in the area around Fallowfield Dene Caravan and Camping Park – and you’ll see that reflected in the fact that the various pitching areas on site have all been given suitable Roman names. This well-kept rural site is surrounded by mature woodlands, and native trees such as mountain ash and silver birch have been cleverly used around the pitches to provide landscaping, views, shelter and privacy. Naturally, that also makes the park a popular spot with local wildlife – you may well spot a fox, a badger or a red squirrel as you wander about, and may hear the distinct tapping of a woodpecker. Fallowfield Dene makes a great base from which to explore the area’s past, but the site itself is thoroughly modern, with high-spec bathroom blocks and a launderette. Large pitches have plenty of space to spread out, and they’re easy to access via well-kept park roads. How to fill your days here? Well, of course it’s a great idea to explore as many of the area’s Roman sites as possible, but there are also lots of activities like golf, fishing, walks in the North Pennines and watersports at Kielder Water. It’s also not far to get to Newcastle upon Tyne or the east coast. Please note that while children are welcome here, there isn't a play area and ball games are not allowed as space is limited. While barbecues are allowed, they must not be disposable. A maximum of two dogs are permitted per booking.

What customers say

This quiet, wooded spot gets top marks for spotless modern facilities, roomy spots & helpful staff. Guests rave about clean washrooms & the peaceful vibe. Great for Hadrian's Wall & countryside exploring. A few missed kid's play areas & pitch issues, but most want to return!

Liked Friendly welcome and a lovely site. Only used for a stopover.

Disliked 2 stage sat nav instructions were a little wide of the mark. Better to provide written instructions.

Powered grass campsite

Liked Very remote, peaceful, very good toilet and shower blocks . Large site but with small areas for tourers and large areas with seasonal pitches and chalets. Very quiet when we were there and so we stayed a second night as felt comfortable . Despite bad rain The second night . Easy to reach dog walk down public footpath through site and over adjacent fields . Well organised site with clear instructions everywhere.

Disliked Others have mentioned some abruptness 9f managers but I felt they were doing their job and were very clear about what was expected of us. So no complaints

Powered grass campsite

Liked Quiet, well kept side with immaculate facilities and footpath to local village (Pub).
Excellent for our Border Collie.

Disliked Keycode for toilets.
Too many squirrels 🤣

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: The Key codes on the toilets are there for your security, this is to stop just anyone entering (especially at night)as there is a public footpath through the site.
Sorry we cant do anything about the squirrels, we are in a woodland setting.
Thank you for your review.

We will be going back , had a quite and relaxed visit

Powered gravel and cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Tidy site, lovely bathroom facilities, spotless and clean. Lots of birds and squirrels. Nice walks along the fields.

Disliked All the bins are up at the entrance and no litter type bins .

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Our bins wont get emptied unless we recycle, this is why we have a small Recycling Centre. The entrance to the site is only a short walk from the touring area however, your rubbish can be dropped of whenever you leave the site. We have signs to tell you what to put in which bin.
Thank you for your review.

Powered grass campsite

Liked Lovely location, with a very pleasant dog friendly walk, directly from the site, down to Acomb. (Excellent beer and a great pub lunch at The Miners Arms!) The woodland setting is very pretty, and the surrounding Northumbrian countryside is absolutely stunning. As several other reviews have mentioned, the loos and showers are excellent, some of the best we’ve experienced at a campsite. Although there are quite a lot of permanent caravans sited here, it wasn’t busy and we had a very peaceful and pleasant stay.

Disliked Nothing

Local attractions

If the site’s Roman theme has inspired you to get out and see some of the original locations, head first to the nearest section of Hadrian’s Wall, a mile away. A little further away, drop into Corbridge Roman Town (10 minutes’ drive), the Temple of Mithras (15 minutes) and Housesteads Roman Fort (20 minutes). Hexham (10 minutes) is a historic place too, but with attractions from a different era like the abbey and Hexham Old Gaol as well as more Roman bits and pieces. For a more contemporary urban day out, make tracks to Newcastle upon Tyne (half an hour) for the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, the Discovery Museum and a whole lot of places to eat, shop and catch cultural events. Truly rural outings are easy to find too – just head a couple of miles south to the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or north to Kielder Forest Park. Kielder Water (45 minutes) has various watersports to try out, plus a bird of prey park.
