What customers say

A large, peaceful campsite with spacious pitches and lovely countryside views. Flexible arrival/departure times and a dog field were a hit. However, some found the lack of drinking water and portaloo cleanliness disappointing. Basic, but great for a back-to-basics getaway.

Local attractions

National Trust properties in the area include Cherryburn (five minutes’ drive) and Gibside (20 minutes). The former is a pretty country cottage where Thomas Bewick, renowned for his books about British birds, was born in the 1750s. At Gibside, a landscaped Georgian garden features splendid views of the Derwent Valley. In Newcastle-upon-Tyne (half an hour), the Great North Museum: Hancock displays archaeological discoveries and natural history artefacts, as well as Egyptian sarcophagi and Japanese armour. Grainger Market is a top spot to refuel before heading to St. James’ Park, home of Newcastle United Football Club, for a stadium tour and a climb up to the roof for panoramic city views. If you have your kayak with you, head to Whitley Bay (50 minutes), where you can also just relax on the beach. Further north along the coast is Alnmouth Beach (one hour), a sandy stretch backed by vegetation-covered dunes that are home to assorted birdlife.
