What customers say
Spacious, level pitches with great views, perfect for exploring the coast. Susan's friendly and helpful, and the portaloos are spotless. Basic but well-kept facilities. Peaceful spot near Holy Island and Bamburgh. No showers, but guests loved it anyway.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Excellent no frills site with very large pitches, peaceful and clean.
Non-electric grass and earth motorhome pitch
Liked Simple, beautiful and no frills site in a stunning location, so peaceful and the biggest pitches I have camped on.
Porta-loos were also very clean.
Susan also very helpful on the phone and messaged before arrival which was a nice touch.
Disliked Due to its location got very windy during the night had to take canopy down (not the camp sites fault) just a heads up.
No access to the beach from campsite, had to walk about 30 mins to Ross Sands (worth the walk though)

Beautiful stay 😊
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Nice quiet campsite, easy to find. Beautiful scenery. Plenty of walks to do from the campsite itself so no need to drive. Right next to the coastal path. Had a beautiful time. Portaloos were clean and good standards. Clean water. Everything you need.
Disliked No showers however we didn't need for our length of stay. This didn't affect our love for the campsite and area.

beautiful location, beautiful scenery, really big pitches. laid back.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked location is beautiful, set opposite the holy island. Field is well kept and pitch sizes are amazing. really really good size. no showers but the loos are cleaned regularly and are very clean. quiet campsite which is really nice. plenty of room at the bottom of the field for children to run. if you like star gazing then this is a perfect spot as the surrounding area has no light pollution. really loved staying here and its within 15 minutes drive to Berwick or Seahouses for local amenities. perfect site to explore the surrounding area.
pitch location and details of how to get there and where to pitch up are very clear and easy to follow. Will book this site again if were ever in the north east.
Disliked nothing to dislike.
