Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: The spacious plot, the hosts hospitality, the position and convenience to get out and about, the cleanliness and presentation of the amenities
Disliked: Some other campers were inconsiderate ( no fault of the site) openly urinating, playing loud music after midnight, throwing the ball for the dog onto other people's pitches with a complete disregard for others

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Campsite was easy to find and pitches were spacious. Toilet and shower block was clean and relatively close to pitches. Restaurant made good food and firepits available. Firepit conditions vary but those did the job.
Views are great and nice local gallery shop-cafe on site. Bellingham on closw aproximity and shops and cafés.Kielder forest 25 mins easy drive.
Personnel was kind and super friendly. There was big groups but site was peaceful and everyone respect eachother.
Disliked: It would be useful if campsite would hand small leaflet to inform visitors. Just small thongs like washing up room opening times, restaurant service times and firepit hire information.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked: Large pitch which was reasonably flat, toilets and showers were clean enough but could do with some updating. Bar and restaurant on site which was great. Lovely walks in the area.
Disliked: Washing up area was in the same room as all the restaurants freezers and there always seemed to be a queue unless you got there early as it gets locked overnight so could do with a stand alone outside under some shelter maybe?
Not necessarily the campsites fault but first night we had a very loud family drinking and playing music till around 1am after we were warned by the site that it was quiet site from 10pm again not overly bothered but if you had kids then it's just a pre warning second night was much better.

Liked: A Perfect Getaway: Relaxed, Welcoming, and Ideal for Large Tents
We had a fantastic stay at Boe Rigg Campsite. It’s an ideal spot for anyone with a large tent, with plenty of space and well-laid-out pitches that make setting up easy, even in windy conditions.
The site has a lovely farm feel, with a peaceful, down-to-earth atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. It’s owner run, and that personal touch really shines through. The warm, cozy vibe makes you feel genuinely welcome, more like a home from home than just a campsite.
The facilities are thoughtfully designed, with little touches that make a big difference, like shelves and hooks in the showers (so helpful!). And the food? Absolutely brilliant. Tasty, hearty meals that are perfect after a day of exploring or just relaxing on site.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a calm, friendly place to unwind. We’ll definitely be back
