What customers say

Friendly, well-situated spot with generous, serviced sites. Gordon the warden is a star! Upgrades mean some facilities are a bit dated, but clean. Expect occasional building noise. Great for exploring, good transport.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Great site well located to get out and explore not only Northumberland’s coast but also Hadrians wall. Very quiet and rural location yet you can be in Newcastle in 15 mins. Gordon could not have been any more helpful during our stay. We did worry about the 1 shower 1 toilet reviews but actually was 1 each for male and female. That being said at no point did any of our group of 4 have to wait to use the facilities. Gordon kept the site immaculate at all times as well as the washing facilities. Onsite washing machine and drier really helped as well. Will definitely use this site again !

Local attractions

The nearby town of Prudhoe, about 11 miles from the city of Newcastle upon Tyne, has a Norman castle and a waterpark as well as access to the old Newcastle and Carlisle Railway, now the Tyne Valley Line and still running regularly between the two cities. If you're anywhere around this part of England, a must-see is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hadrian's Wall, the most visited destination in the north of England, running for about 73 miles across the north of England from Bowness-on-Solway to Wallsend, across the North Pennines, and along Northumberland National Park. The wall has several Roman sites along its length, including Housesteads Roman fort, the most complete Roman fort in Britain; eight forts and live excavations at the Roman Army Museum and Roman Vindolanda, and Segedunum Roman Fort, Baths and Museum. Paintball, quad biking, go karting, offroad 4x4 driving and a Go Ape! are all available locally. A shopping centre is 20 minutes away.
