Primitive grass RV campsite

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.

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.
