What customers say
This well-run campsite has spacious, level sites with great countryside views, perfect for exploring the Northumberland coast. Guests love the clean portaloos and the owner's friendly, helpful service. Basic but well-kept facilities are adequate for most. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and proximity to Holy Island and Bamburgh Castle. No showers noted by some, but didn't spoil stays.

Primitive grass and earth RV campsite
Liked Lovely large and level pitches, views of Lindisfarne, peace and quiet.
Cleanest portaloos I have ever used.
Disliked A bit hard to find. Maybe a 'What three words' in the welcome email?
In an almost empty site, we had been allocated a pitch right next to someone else! We moved.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked My first solo camp, the campsite is clean, welcoming and well organised, there are porta potties at least 5 regularly cleaned and maintained. There is waste disposal for Water, toilet waste, glass bottles, general waste and recycled. There are taps around the site for water very useful. Each pitch is clearly labelled with a number, a path to drive on is clearly cut down. Its a quiet, peaceful campsite with great views and very helpful owner who answered all my questions overall definitely recommended and will be visiting again. Thank you

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked This campsite was exactly as described and had the facilities I needed for my 3 night stay. The view was gorgeous, and I loved how peaceful it was. Each pitch had loads of room, so it felt really spacious. Susan had some great recommendations for local places to explore, and everything was so close and easy to get to. I hope to be back next year!

Primitive grass and earth RV campsite
Liked Campsite is in a great location, you can walk to a bird watching hut and/or the English Coast path on the site (English Coast path is only accessible during certain months as the path changes to inland for some reason)
Disliked The pitches are on a decent slope, the lack of showers prevents you from staying for longer if you don't have the facilities
