 Top quality site, not far from the convenient town if Haltwhistle and within walking distance of Hadrian’s Wall.

Facilities are excellent with modern and immaculate facilities.

Large pitches.

Short walk to an excellent pub.

 Stayed at one of the wooden glamping units with our dog lilibet, we had the best 3 nights we could have had.

What a lovely place to spend our free time loads to do around the local area, plenty of walks and sights to see with a couple of great pubs local.

The site itself is great the staff are very welcoming and very helpful with all questions and queries

Showers are some of the cleanest I've seen and very modern, toilets clean, a great room for having meals if your in a tent also a microwave for use if needed, there are also hot drink machines for quick hot drinks.

Will be going back very soon as we had a great time and camping in our camper as the facilities are impeccable.

 We’ve just enjoyed another good weekend at Herding Hill.

Weather was great, facilities excellent.

We visited the Lakes while we’re there - the site makes a great base for lots of places in the area.

 Lovely peaceful site well situated for visiting local area's.

The site was very well laid out with a dog walking field adjacent to site.

Toilets were very clean and benefited from underfloor heating 👌.

Donkeys, alpacas, pigs, and rabbits on site for the kids to enjoy.

Plenty of Lovely walks close by the site.

Would use again 👍

 On this visit to Herding Hill we hired their 3 bedroom lodge.

It was spacious, modern and well presented.

Excellent facilities throughout with the added bonus of a hot tub and garden area with fire pit.

As you can see from reviews, this is an excellent site in an excellent location.

Looking forward to another visit soon.

 Just back from a great weekend at Herding Hill. In terms of facilities, you’ll struggle to find better.

Facilities block is modern with good showers, bath, heated flooring and sauna.

Pitches are large and the whole site is kept immaculate.

The Milecastle Inn at the the of the road a a great pub. A little further afield you can find the Twice Brewed, The Sill and the town of Haltwhistle.

Excellent base within easy walking distance of Hadrian’s Wall.

 Fabulous caravan site with excellent facilities.

Very friendly and helpful staff.

Underfloor heating in showers was a Godsend in the Winter and plenty of hot water. Spotlessly clean as well.

Very dog-friendly site with plenty of dog waste bins and good dog walks and even had a dog shower tub behind the amenities block.

Being quite high up the views were wonderful and plenty of interesting places to visit in the area.

Can highly recommend and we will be back again in the future.

 This is an excellent site, and we visit a couple of times each year.

Always a warm welcome and facilities are excellent.

Pizzas on Friday evenings are superb.

Outdoor pool in the town is excellent in the warmer months.

Short walk to Hadrian’s Wall and everything you need can be found in Haltwhistle down the road.

 This is an excellent site which has had lots of investment - facilities are superb. Large, well-maintained pitches and a modern facilities block (with sauna, extra charge).

It’s in a good location, with Hadrian’s wall accessible directly from the site on foot. Haltwhistle is a mile away and has everting you might need - Sainsbury’s, pubs, take away etc.

The Milecastle Inn is a 10 minute walk from the site and is an excellent traditional country pub with decent food.

1 hour drive to the Lakes, 20 minutes from Hexham.

Excellent site.

 Just a 1 night stopover on our way South - would have stayed much longer if we had time.

Good sized hardstanding with electric (super pitches with water and waste also available).

Facilities block was 5 star - immaculately clean and warm. The sauna room an added bonus - £5 for an hour and its your exclusive use.

Good shop at reception, two dog walks including an enclosed field to let them off for a run.

Staff were super helpful and friendly.

Would come back without a doubt - a really 1st class site that has had plenty of investment which shows. At £24 with electric a real bargain.

On a clear sky night its fabulous for star watching too.

 Excellent site. Great location near to Hadrian’s Wall, a decent pub and the town of Haltwhistle.

Hexham is not far to drive, and Kielder and the Lakes are both within easy reach.

Facilities are immaculate. Clean heated showers, large pitches and the site kept in spotless condition.

Great site!

Reviewer: Pudsey28 4 reviews from this member

 A nice site in a good location. Facilities are clean and modern. A good mix of tents, caravans and motorhomes, many from abroad.

The walking is very good in the vicinity of the wall, but some of the paths are in poor condition as you move away.

The pub food is very expensive, £9 for a cheese sandwich with a few crisps and a bit of salad!

 This is an excellent site abs we stayed here twice over the winter/early spring months.

Facilities are very modern and kept in pristine condition. Site staff all very friendly and helpful.

Excellent access to Hadrian’s Wall and the town of Haltwhistle, which has everyone you need.

Will certainly return.

Reviewer: Cfurn 21 reviews from this member

 The campsite had fantastic facilities that were beautifully maintained and very clean. There is a wonderful dog walk with amazing views on top of the hill.

Although it was mid June when we went, the weather was more like winter and we really appreciated that the underfloor heating was still on in the showers, and that there was a big room with tables and chairs that you could sit in if you wanted more space. We also made good use of the Hadrian's Wall bus service that stopped right outside the campsite.

The bus turned out to be a godsend as it was too dangerous to walk down the steep, narrow, windy road into Haltwhistle, or even to the Milecastle Inn in the other direction. We were given directions for walking into the town via footpaths to avoid the road. It involved walking the dog through a field of cows, climbing over a wall stile and some steep steps, but we decided to give it a go, despite my partner having injured his leg. However, the start of the route was on the road and after having to leap into the long grass and nettles a couple of times to avoid cars hurtling around the corner, we gave up on that.

Sadly, although the site itself was perfect and in a beautiful location, we won't be returning because we were unable to walk into the town in the evening and so felt a bit isolated. I'm quite sure that this wouldn't bother a lot of people.
