Likte Close to Bamburgh Castle and the Holy island, an easily accessible campsite on the river which runs along the rear of the tourers pitches. There are a large number of pitches. Water and facilities are all close by.

Toilets and showers looked and smelled clean, there is a children's play area and fishing lake, there is an onsite restaurant and club house.

Ducks and Geese roam free around the pitches, we found them sleeping outside our van in the morning.

This was fine for us as we passed through on our tour of Scotland and Northern England.

The WiFi is a paid for service if you need it, Cell signal is fine.

Likte ikke The pitches are stacked close to each other and small, without fire break or a hedge to separate you from your neighbour. There are a number of seasonal pitches here who may be left over from when this was a Haven site. The vans look old and unkempt with one individual washing their car on the end of their pitch and pouring the soapy dirty water down the clean water drain. The facilities although clean, really need a revamp and some care, again maybe more the fault of the legacy clientele, wads of paper strewn across the loo floor, dirty cracked sinks.

There are a number of water points, one of which is at the back of a pitch, a gentleman decided that he needed to use to this water point to fill his water butt whilst a family ate their meal on said pitch. Maybe he wanted to avoid the soapy one?!

The fishing lake was found and can never be forgotten, sadly due to nature this is just a massive ring of duck and goose faecal matter. Natural yes, health hazard? Maybe. At least the band of unsupervised young ladies chasing the ducks with a witches broom may sort this issue out.

Fra bestyreren: Thanks for the kind words David! Great to hear you liked the pitches.
Looking forward to your next visit! 🌿

Likte We liked the fact there was plenty of outdoor space for the children to run around. Although none gated and pods on road

Likte ikke Nothing there site is outdated pods were tiny and dirty, we booked three nights left after one night. Smelled terrible the pod from the fridge and the pod just not being cleaned at all. Farm entertainerment for kids every morning crossed off. Food stopped serving very early in the evening only options were take out. The facilities were very bad standard. We were desperate to leave.

Fra bestyreren: Thanks for sharing your experience Annalise — we’re really sorry to hear it didn’t meet expectations. While it’s great the outdoor space was appreciated, the issues with cleanliness, pod condition, limited food options, and cancelled entertainment are deeply concerning.
Your feedback is important and will be passed on to the team to help us make urgent improvements.
We’re genuinely sorry for the disappointment and hope we can do better in the future. 🛠️

Likte The weather.

Likte ikke Pitches too close together sardines in a can comes to mind, photos on website dont resemble riverside touring pitches. No respect for others space just walk through pitches instead of walking round the path. Toilet blocks in desperate need of cleaning & upgrade. They did repair a cold water tap in disabled toilet the day it was reported. We had booked a week & left after 3 nights. The final straw was my husband finding the mens toilet block with faeces all over floor.

Likte Location

Likte ikke Pitches were okay but too close together, no one seemed to patrol areas as cars were parked where ever they liked.
People constantly walking through your pitch area.
Toilet block needs updating and cleaning more regularly.

Likte Even though a large site, it was actually very quiet. Pitch size was good. Friendly staff. Easy to find. Loved the resident ducks!
Location regards visiting lindisfarne/Bamburgh/alnwick is easy and scenic and relaxing.

Likte ikke Toilet and shower block, where to start! Hit and miss on hot/mainly warm water, push button that stays on for 10 seconds! The 'family shower room' not suitable for a family let alone small kids in any of the showers as again refer to previous, plus they are small cubicles also the skirting is/was hanging off and rotten/rusty behind it! Shower curtain not reaching the floor so floor is soaked!
The shower/toilet block needs a massive overhaul/updating!!

Heated swimming pool, which wasn't heated as broken, but wasn't told until booking a swim session, which you only get 45mins a day! Again wasn't informed of this.
The entertainment block is across the main road, so bear in mind with kids etc... maybe a crossing needs installing!
Some pitches can be tight, so be weary if no motor mover fitted.
