Bamburgh castle

  • Small touring park less than five minutes' drive from Seahouses
  • A five-minute drive from Bamburgh, with two castles within 10 miles
  • Spacious farmland site where dogs, families and barbecues are welcome
Breathe easy on a break spent at Westfield Paddock Caravan Site, a small, privately owned and peaceful touring park for those with on-board facilities. On the edge of the gorgeous Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the family-run park is surrounded by gorgeous farmland with lovely views, and it's family-friendly too. Dogs are also welcome as long as they’re well behaved; an enclosed paddock is next to the pitches where they can scamper about off lead. Other strolls include one towards the village of Seahouses about a mile away for a chip supper, although you can also stay well fed and watered with the assistance of the pubs and restaurants within the local area. Food shops are within easy reach when you're foraging for yourself, and barbecues are permitted at the park. Set the grill up at your pitch then head over to the service area to sort errands with amenities including chemical waste disposal, a water tap and rubbish and recycling facilities. Also on site is a handy information caravan stacked with leaflets to help you decide on days out – which might include wildlife-spotting boat trips to the Farne Islands, a round of sea-view golf or outings to the stunning coastal castles at Bamburgh and Dunstanburgh… Bringing bikes along (or hiring locally) is a fine idea too – the area’s well served for bike paths, and the Sustrans Coast and Castles South route passes by the park.

What customers say

A neat, peaceful, small campsite with plenty of space on the fully serviced pitches. Easy walk to town and coast. Bonus dog area! No loos/showers, but that's clear. Some patchy WiFi. Great value for a tranquil stay.

Petra H.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Very nice and quiet, super picht and all we needed for 2 nights. dog training area. we did walk to the bamburgh castle along the beach, and had a very nice day out. At the entrance there is a sign stating your pitch number, so checking in is very easy.

Disliked Nothing, as I was aware that no showerblock is available, I had no expectations in that regard.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Beautifully maintained and immaculately clean. Site was very quiet and close enough to Seahouses to make a walk/cycle into town a possibility. Pitches flat and more than big enough.

Just after the stone buildings on the left and wildlife pond on the right take the narrow road to the right signposted Shoreston. After a mile, at the small crossroads, Westfield Paddock is opposite you.

Local attractions

Stick around Seahouses for the golf club, horse riding and afternoons at the spa, or set off for sandy times on North Sunderland’s shores (all about five minutes’ drive). Wildlife-spotting boat trips to the Farne Islands leave from the village, with chances to peer at puffins, seals and dolphins during the tour. Bamburgh Castle’s about the same distance from the park as Seahouses, and a beachside walking road from the site means it’s possible to reach it with a ramble of around three miles. More golf, with views across the coast, is to be had at Bamburgh Castle Golf Club (5 minutes’ drive); alternatively, continue explorations of stately structures at Dunstanburgh Castle – another beachside fortification dating back to the 14th century – and Alnwick Castle (under 25 minutes away). Alternatively, take trips to the historic Etal Estate (yet another stunning structure in the area) and take a ride on the most northerly narrow-gauge steam train in England, the Heatherslaw Light Railway (35 minutes’ drive).
