What customers say

Beautiful, peaceful riverside campsite with spacious pitches. Guests loved the friendly owners, clean facilities & eco-friendly touches, enjoying "wild camping" feel with good amenities. Minor navigation/shower temp issues, but overwhelmingly positive with many returning.

Crook of the River non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Great location and lovely big pitches. Very quiet campground. Well maintained campground that does not feel crowded. Lovely walks available starting from the campsite.

Disliked I wish it had more/better facilities. Proper hot showers, washing up sinks etc. Facility also could’ve been a bit cleaner. Shame you can’t actually go down to the river as it is protected, would’ve been so fun to play with the kids there.

Route directions

If you are following Google Maps, please drive through Warkworth with the castle on your left. Google Maps tries to take drivers down Watershaugh Road and across the ford, which is not suitable for motorhomes or caravans and, depending upon river levels, cars too. There is a footbridge to the right of the ford for cyclists and walkers which is accessible from a narrow footpath against the hedgerow (at the last bend before you drop down to the river).

Local attractions

The village of Warkworth is a sweet little place. While history buffs explore the ruins of the 13th-century hilltop castle and riverside hermitage, wildlife enthusiasts can go on a puffin-spotting cruise to Coquet Island. Of course, you might just prefer to take it easy on Warkworth beach, a vast sandy stretch that is also popular for watersports. The landscape of Druridge Bay Country Park (20 minutes' drive) includes a dune-fringed beach (dotted with World War II defences), a boating lake and woodlands. Active types flock here to cycle, paddleboard and surf, but there is also plenty of birdwatching to be done, with swans among the winged residents. The dramatic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle (25 minutes) sit atop a promontory stretching into the North Sea. From there, take a 25-minutes coastal walk to the fishing village of Craster, where you can sample the local speciality: smoked kipper.
