  • Well-maintained rural site in a mature woodland two miles from Hexham
  • A mile from Hadrian's Wall and close to Kielder Forest Park
  • Launderette and modern bathrooms on site
With Hexham two miles to the south and Hadrian’s Wall a mile to the north, there’s a whole lot of history in the area around Fallowfield Dene Caravan and Camping Park – and you’ll see that reflected in the fact that the various pitching areas on site have all been given suitable Roman names. This well-kept rural site is surrounded by mature woodlands, and native trees such as mountain ash and silver birch have been cleverly used around the pitches to provide landscaping, views, shelter and privacy. Naturally, that also makes the park a popular spot with local wildlife – you may well spot a fox, a badger or a red squirrel as you wander about, and may hear the distinct tapping of a woodpecker. Fallowfield Dene makes a great base from which to explore the area’s past, but the site itself is thoroughly modern, with high-spec bathroom blocks and a launderette. Large pitches have plenty of space to spread out, and they’re easy to access via well-kept park roads. How to fill your days here? Well, of course it’s a great idea to explore as many of the area’s Roman sites as possible, but there are also lots of activities like golf, fishing, walks in the North Pennines and watersports at Kielder Water. It’s also not far to get to Newcastle upon Tyne or the east coast. Please note that while children are welcome here, there isn't a play area and ball games are not allowed as space is limited. While barbecues are allowed, they must not be disposable. A maximum of two dogs are permitted per booking.

What customers say

A gem of a woodland campsite! Immaculate modern facilities, spacious pitches, and super friendly staff. Great for Hadrian's Wall exploration. Mostly fantastic, though a few found the hardstanding tricky and wished for a play area. Many want to come back!

Liked The location has great views and is easy to find with the instructions provided. Although we checked in late, all the instructions were ready for us. The pitch was large and the facilities were very clean.

Electric grass pitch

Liked The best washing facilities anywhere. Proper shower cubicles, a seat in the shower space and a ceiling to floor door. Everything very very clean. Really effective hand dryers and lovely sparkly mirrors.
The setting was lovely and the site was peaceful but friendly. It felt very secure and was a very pleasant stay.

Disliked The road to the site. But not a big deal.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Nice and flat pitches and right next to toilets and showers and they were pristine. Love needing a code to get into the site and same code to get into toilets.

Disliked Could do with more of a shop and sell a lot more products especially washing powder or tablets as there is a little laundrette.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We don't stock more than basic essentials due to previous wastage. Thank you for your review, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay.

Local attractions

If the site’s Roman theme has inspired you to get out and see some of the original locations, head first to the nearest section of Hadrian’s Wall, a mile away. A little further away, drop into Corbridge Roman Town (10 minutes’ drive), the Temple of Mithras (15 minutes) and Housesteads Roman Fort (20 minutes). Hexham (10 minutes) is a historic place too, but with attractions from a different era like the abbey and Hexham Old Gaol as well as more Roman bits and pieces. For a more contemporary urban day out, make tracks to Newcastle upon Tyne (half an hour) for the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, the Discovery Museum and a whole lot of places to eat, shop and catch cultural events. Truly rural outings are easy to find too – just head a couple of miles south to the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or north to Kielder Forest Park. Kielder Water (45 minutes) has various watersports to try out, plus a bird of prey park.
