What customers say
Gallowmoor Farm Camping offers a peaceful, simple camping experience in a beautiful rural setting. Generously sized, private pitches are often tree-lined. The location is convenient for exploring the Northumberland coast and nearby castles. Basic facilities, including clean portaloos and water taps, are noted to be reflected in the price. While occasional noise from trains and farm vehicles is mentioned, most guests found the atmosphere quiet and relaxing, with friendly, helpful owners frequently highlighted.

Lovely small site
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Great little spot, quiet and remote but only a ten minute drive to Alnwick centre, lots of space in the pitches which are marked out by a lovely tree line, plenty of space for the kids to play with balls, frisby etc and lastly - most immaculate portaloo I've ever seen! Abbie was lovely and welcoming contacting by text prior to arriving and when cleaning facilities.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked I loved the peaceful, off-grid atmosphere at Gallowmoor Farm Camping — waking up to birdsong, cooking over an open fire, and watching the stars without any light pollution made the whole experience feel truly wild and relaxing.
Disliked The facilities at Gallowmoor Farm are quite basic, which adds to its rustic, back-to-nature charm. It’s also located near a railway line, so you may occasionally hear trains passing — something to keep in mind if you're after complete silence.

Peaceful place to camp for a short stay! Loved it!
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked The pitch sizes are amazing and the trees really gave a sense of privacy. The toilet was always well stocked and clean. It was so peaceful, I slept better than I do at home. We didn't have the weather, but we still had a fantastic time and would not hesitate returning for a weekend break. The fact there aren't any showers, can make it tricky but this is offset by a very peaceful place to camp, with a maximum of 13 pitches.
