 A clean quiet site.
The owners are friendly approachable and very helpful.
The facilities are clean throughout our stay.
Fantastic location and only a two minute slow walk to the village shops, cafes etc.
Plenty of walks from the village.
Site is perfectly located for visits to Kielder Water, Hexham.

We are seasoned campers with several decade’s experience. This is a basic farm campsite spread over two open fields. There is no attempt at landscaping and you just have to accept it for what it is.
Other reviewers have mentioned that the farmer is busy and this is true, however they are charging as much as other campsites which offer a higher degree of service, cleanliness and better facilities.
The toilet blocks are in old farm buildings in a lovely cobbled yard which must be very old. The gents contained two loos and two showers (although one had no hooks for your clothes), but strangely, the ladies had only one shower cubicle.
Cleaning was rudimentary and infrequent and we got the impression that they were just being sluiced out with disinfectant now and again.
The field hadn’t been mown for a while and you had to walk through long wet grass to get to the loos in the morning.
There was a chemical toilet disposal point which was simply a buckled manhole cover over the drains from the animal sheds, but there was no caravan/motorhome grey water waste disposal point and no obvious fresh water supply for them, unless you could get your vehicle close to the one water tap by a farm shed.
The best thing about this site was it’s proximity to the shops and pubs in the lovely little town of Bellingham, just a few minute’s walk away.
The first row of shops that you come to included a hardware shop, a Coop and a traditional bakery producing the most delicious bread, pies and cakes.
We did the walk up to Hareshaw Linn straight from the campsite, which was a very enjoyable couple of hour’s walk there and back.

Great location, almost in the village with a few pubs. Hareshaw Linn, a great walk is very close by.
Good pitch, spacious and not noisy late on in the evening and the facilities were clean.
Fairly short drive to Keilder the next day, so plenty to do without travelling far.
Would definitely stay here again.

Friendly and relaxed welcome from the farmer on arrival. This is a peaceful site in a small and pretty village on a working farm. Local shops selling what you need and a good pub within easy walking distance. Basic but clean and well stocked toilet block.
Good choice of pitches on level open field further away from others for more relaxed camping or more organised field nearer the toilets.
Both fields pretty flat with a good covering of grass making for more comfortable sleeping if no bed! Well drained with no mud. No traffic noise and little light pollution.
Can park next to your tent which I prefer both for security (motorcycle) and ease of loading / unloading camping gear. Watching the many swallows each evening was great.
Had a great stay and would recommend to anyone wanting a quiet site and not needing lots of amenities.

Nice little site on a working farm. Good location near shops, eateries and takeaways. Owner friendly but seemed a bit rushed when we were there, guess it was a busy time of the year.
The camp site was full at the weekend, lots of families with young children and motorcyclists. Grass only pitches.
I'm glad it wasn't a wet weekend as it would have been quite muddy and the toilet/shower block resembled a muddy field in the morning with so many people going in and out as it were. Don't forget to pack the flip flops.
2 toilet cubicles and 1 shower per gender. I had no issues with the electric shower, although the shower curtain had been removed and made the cubicle wet everywhere.
Washing up sink is also within the toilet/shower block so 1 washing up sink per gender. Fresh water tap, grey waste and chemical disposal available.
Pitches reasonably flat. £20 without or £24 with EHU.

Lovely site, on a working farm in the village of Bellingham. The owners are friendly and helpful and explained all the systems and precautions in place since the site has re opened after lockdown.
Toilets were clean and there was plenty of cleaning materials and hand sanitizer.
The site is basic and no frills but there was plenty room for kids to run around and of course there was the sheep to watch instead of playgrounds.
The camping fields aren’t flat but it wasn't too bad and the sheep did as they were told and didn’t make a noise after 10 o’clock which I was dubious about when we got there as they were right beside the tent.
The site attracted a mix - loads of cyclists in small individual tents to families. We had decided not to cook while away for the weekend and we were impressed by the variety of places to eat out within walking distance.
It was lovely to be able to walk to the co-op and pubs. Had a lovely meal at The Cheviot Pub, breakfast at The Rocky Road Cafe and a lovely tasty Chinese Takeaway to eat back at the tent.
We will definitely be back

I enjoyed the basic uncluttered accommodation of the site and the openness of the area.
This was my second stay at Demesne Campsite and I hope to return in the future.
Only one dislike the cobbles leading to the shower block, not good for your feet and legs after a long days walk!
