Reviewer: Esmeralda 31 reviews from this member

 Just had 2 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed it. A spacious well laid out site with excellent facilities, yet didn't feel too commercialised, just the way we like it. Walked into Seahouses itself on two occasions and didn't find it too far at all, well worth it when you reach the harbour and beach area with stunning scenery and lots to watch going on. Fascinating to see all the boats in and out visiting the Farne Islands. Plenty of choice there for eating etc. We were a bit disappointed when we first saw our pitch as we thought more of them had the sea views we'd seen online, but that particular field wasn't that big so pitches are limited, there were quite a lot of tents there, but once we were pitched up we were quite happy with our spot. Will definitely return soon!

 After reading other reviews and spending a week here myself, I really do think it depends on whereabouts you are pitched as to how enjoyable your stay.

We were unfortunately pitched about 5ft from the park and also right behind a walk way and a fence which, although said no climbing to access the park, was completely ignored. So although at first glance our pitch looked to be sizable, it was simply a cut through for either the kids to get on the park or campers to get to the facillities. To say there was no peace was an understatement. We had kids screaming on the park at 6. 30 'push me higher daddy!' And then general chitter chatter right outside our bedroom window about who was making breakfast from 7 am. We tried to have a bbq one evening but due to so many kids running through our pitch we gave up, having drinks knocked over and items stood on! Now I have children and I don't mind noise and running about but this was ridiculous. We had a cycle round the site and could see how different the other pitches were. We were number 31 and I would agree with another review here that pitches 29 30 & 31 should be avoided as you have absolutely no privacy.

The area itself is stunning and the location is very central to the attractions Northumberland has to offer.

The park and large field clearly proves a hit with kids. The site also allow fire pits which look lovely.

The site was very busy, summer hols and bank holiday week and I found the facilities to be rather dirty. I don't mind out dated or basic but I found these to be rather unclean. This could have been down to the sheer volume of people there however. I noticed that the wooden huts/wigwams had the use of separate facilities which could account for the differing reviews of the facilities.

All in all would definitely return to the area but not the site. Whilst there we also saw on 2 separate occasions motorhomes go out for the day to find on their return, their pitch had been taken. One person was told that there wasn't any spare pitches so despite the fact they had paid for several more nights, they would have to leave, no apology, or anything. In fact when the customer started to complain, he was ordered to leave the site immediately! We witnessed this conversation and to be honest we felt very uncomfortable. Not exactly good service, so motorhomes beware!

 Just returned from our second visit to this site and once again we weren't disappointed. We personally really like the location, not too far from the A1 so easy to get to and within walking distance from a stunning beach. The site is well kept, spacious and friendly.

I can't comment about the facilities simply because we always use our own but some friends of ours used the showers and said they we great.

I personally wouldn't think twice about returning and recommending this site.

Reviewer: SSForster 4 reviews from this member

 This was a first time stay for us at Springhill. We wanted to stay somewhere local to us as this was our first outing in our caravan.

It is set near the top of the hill and has a lovely view of the sea and Bamburgh castle. It was rather windy and we waited until the next day before we attempted putting the awning up.

We were pitched near the camping field on a hardstanding pitch with electric, we were originally going to be near the bunkhouse but so very glad we weren't as the it was rather loud near the bunkhouse and wigwams and we prefer peace on the evening to get children to sleep.

You can hire fire pits but this isn't something we did. The shop is OK and prices are reasonable.

We went into Seahouses a few times and as shops there for food etc, a petrol station, gift shop and plenty of fish and chip shops!

We went for a stroll round the harbour, went on a boat trip to see the seals, went to the Bunkhouse which has a softplay in and crazy golf outside and generally relaxed on site. The children loved the play area and I felt confident in letting the oldest go off to play.

Not much contact with the staff as when we arrived our names and pitch number were up on the board and we didn't see them much.

The showers were ok, clean and hot, the toilets were ok. There are laundry facilities and washing up area with (very) hot water.

All in all a good experience.

Reviewer: Kerry2108 1 review from this member

 We have just returned from a three night stay at this site and already planning our next trip. We pitched our tent in the camping field which was really flat and the other half had no problems hammering the pegs in which pleased him immensely! Plenty of space around the tents, the loos/showers are a bit of a hike but far preferred to be on the camping field away from the play area and the noisy visitors at the bunkhouse! The loos/showers were always clean apart from the floors being a little dirty but given you have to walk over wet grass to get to them it's to be expected and could be easily resolved if people simply wiped their feet before entering the building. Had no issues with noise on a night but would not like to be near the bunkhouse as it was pretty rowdy there, and would also like to see people respecting the rules of keeping dogs on leads as plenty of them insisted on roaming free and approaching my own dog which was on its lead creating a bit of a territorial barking match! There was a fridge and freezer which we used (thanks to the cheeky monkey helping themselves to my milk!), washing machines, dryer, iron and hairdryer! Seahouses is within walking distance but I didn't fancy taking child and dog along the narrow lanes so drove there and parked up, beach there is beautiful! Also visited Bamburgh and holy island during our stay, wish we were still there!

 Just arrived back from Springhill Farm we spent 2 weeks here and on the whole a very good site - however, only a few gripes that I feel they will get right in time and with a little more investment.

1. Not enough toilets and showers - needs another block down near the entrance to camping field.

2. Disabled toilets/shower should be only for the disabled and not for young families convenience e. G for use of those only with radar key - otherwise provide a separate family room for those with young families.

3. With so many dogs a small exercise field could be provided on site - they have needs too. And cannot be expected to cross their legs for a mile before they reach an exercise area. We are responsible dog owners and pick up. But a lot are not and one mum was cleaning up a little girl who had fell into something not so nice.

Right moan over - would really recommend this site to anyone wanting a fabulous base for the surrounding beautiful area. Will visit again when in area. But not with someone who is disabled (a bit difficult)

Reviewer: Monty the bongo 49 reviews from this member

 Great location, plenty of lovely walks and beaches to explore. Sea houses is close by, just a short walk along quiet roads. The staff are helpful and friendly whenever we saw them. The only let down, the facilities are poor, only 2 toilets in the gents, I don't appreciate queuing in the morning for a sit down! Also the showers are hot and powerful but tiny, I am not a giant at 6 foot but I couldn't stand under the showers fixed head because it is so low. Perhaps the site owners should have spent some money on the campers facilities rather than building all the camping pods and bunk houses. Will definitely be going back to the area but not to this site.

 Lovely Site, Toilets were cleaned regularly and Showers were also clean and hot. Excellent location for walks to Bamburgh, Seahouses and Beadnell Bay. Staff were pleasant on arrival and friendly.

This area of Northumberland is simply stunning. Good choice of eating places in Seahouses, I can recommend the Indian Brasserie and Pinnacles fish and chips who let the dog in the restaurant.

 We stayed for 2 nights in early June, our second visit. Facilities are excellent, very clean and plenty of hot water for the free and powerful showers. Pitches are generously sized and many have lovely sea views. A real bonus of this site is that it is walkable to Seahouses and the beach in approx 25 mins. This was great for us as we did a boat trip to the Farne Islands and were able to stroll down to the harbour rather than needing to take the 'van and find somewhere to park. This is a site that is very hard to fault, well located, well run, reasonably priced and a lovely setting. Keep up the good work Springhill Farm!

Reviewer: Annyvials 7 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for two nights recently. We were fitted in by moving pitch for the second night which wasn't a problem at all. The first thing to say is that the young man in reception wasn't very helpful and didn't seem to know what he was doing. I had forgotten to mention our awning when booking and he charged me £9. 00 which I'm sure was wrong. Anyway, the site itself is nice, the showers and toilets were clean and warm and there are freezers, fridge, washing machine and dryer which we didn't use but useful if you do.

At night, the site is nice and quiet and we used the time to visit Seahouses where we had lovely fish and chips. We also went out to Holy Island for the morning and visited Bamburgh Castle.

A good site and we'd stay again.

Reviewer: DaveWalsh 2 reviews from this member

 Great facilities in the corner of the campsite but a long walk if you are on the overflow field. The overflow camping field was excellent (no electric), with big flat pitches and lots of space. The 'inner' camping field (with electric) was a bit more crowded but we walked through late at night and people were being very respectful having regard to keeping quiet etc. Excellent facilities for kids and good information from the helpers in the shop /reception. Only gripe was the number of sit down toilets for blokes, only two, fun in the mornings. Site needs a second toilet block, more centrally located. Great views but the overflow field is exposed so be prepared for windy conditions.

Reviewer: Phil and Katie 7 reviews from this member

 Spent 10 nights at Springhill Farm on our first trip to Northumberland. The site was easy to find from the directions provided with booking. The pitches are level and generous and we easily sited our 21' van without the need for the motor mover. The views from the site are magnificent across the fields to the sea or across fields to Bamburgh Castle. Plenty of superb walks from the site with our two dogs. The site was well maintained by friendly and helpful wardens. The facilities were clean and the showers were free with no annoying auto button. The site runs a small shop for essentials. We would definitely recommend this site and visit again ourselves.

 Just retuned from a lovely weekend at Springhill Farm Caravan and Camping site. I really have to say that older reviews that we have read really don't give the site justice. The staff were very welcoming and helpful when we arrived. We were shown our pitch on the site map which was clearly marked and easy to find. The hard standing pitch was spacious and the surrounding grass neatly cut and lush. Bins and water were within easy access. Toilet and showers were beside Reception and were kept clean with plenty of hot water when ever we visited. There were also washing machines and dryers to use if required. A freezer was available to refreeze your ice packs at no charge - as well as a microwave if you need to use it. A site shop sells the basics as well as newspapers. There are also lovely views of the Farne Islands, being just over a mile away from Seahouses which has a great selection of Pubs and places to eat as well as Fish & Chip shops, Chinese and Indian takeaways. This Caravan site has to be one of the best we have been on even though there isn't a club house. We had a fantastic relaxing weekend and will definitely be going back. Many thanks to all of the staff.

 Just spent a wonderful week here. Facilities very good, plenty of hot water, toilets/showers very clean. Friendly welcome. Perfectly situated for visits to local attractions, very dog friendly. Wardens extremely helpful when our tent sprung a leak! Will return next year! Not the sort of place to go to if you want entertainment/children's daytime activities. But perfect for a quiet relaxing holiday.

Reviewer: Mobene 5 reviews from this member

 We recently camped at this site and was a little disappointed, firstly with the toilets as they were not always in a good order. The hairdryer was not working in one of the female toilets and the toilet roll was quite often just left out and it was obvious they are not checked on a regularly basis as the toilets bowls needed cleaning on more than one occasion. On one occasion I had a shower in the dark as the lights had all failed in the washing up and toilet areas, (this had nothing to do with the sensors) But the main problem was managing the noise levels at night even though there was a wardens caravan near by we had to ask people to be quiet at 12. 30 and even 1 in the morning. If you go at peak times be prepared for noise around the wigwam and BBQ areas. Some people are quite happy with this and with children on the play area, if so it is a nice site with very large pitches. But we wouldn't go back for the above reasons. Not the sites fault, we should have thought about it before we booked. My Mother in law stayed in one of the hides whilst we were camping and was very pleased with this but the last two days no one came to clean and the floor needed a good sweep. One thing I feel the campsite needs is more staff as we only ever saw the warden and his partner.
