 Such a fantastic find, area is beautiful and site is very well kept.

Will definitely be back again.

Hosts very helpful.

The walks away from the site are picturesque and getting to the wall is a close walk.

Shop on site for essentials and bacon sandwiches for breakfast.

 Very clean and well organised facilities.

Lovely pitch higher up site with a great view of Hadrian’s wall ridge and plenty of trees/shrubs for privacy and shelter.

Owners welcoming and informative.

I can only add to all the other detailed positive reviews I totally agree with that as Welsh speaker able to do that as well with Tracey !

We will be back

Reviewer: Campintent 27 reviews from this member

 A most wonderful site with glorious views to the west of rugged hills and moorland. The sunsets here are fabulous. If you’re lucky and the skies are clear at night, the view of the stars is second to none.

The site is lined by trees and mature shrubs along some sides and dry stone walls on others, making it look very attractive.

Pitches are spread over several different levels going up the hillside and are well spaced-out, some with hedging to separate them, so that the overall impression is of a small and intimate site, when it’s actually bigger than that.

Chickens, ducks and wild rabbits roam freely around the site, giving it a very relaxed feel.

The owners and staff were welcoming and friendly and the little shop contains basic supplies and fresh milk. If you need anything more, the nearby town of Haltwhistle has several shops, including a well-stocked Sainsburys, a number of pubs and at least one fish & chip shop.

The toilet block contained three showers and three loos each for men & women and were kept spotlessly clean several times a day.

The motorhome service point had everything that was needed and was clean and odourless.

There is much to be seen in the area, with Hadrian’s Wall very close and the archaeological sites and museums not far away. A lovely site to stay at and after four nights we were sad that it was time to leave and move on. Highly recommended.

Nights stayed: 14 Travelling as:  Family with older children
Reviewer: TimCESmith 78 reviews from this member

 This is a small, well-kept site on several different levels. It's on high ground overall, with good views, but well sheltered. The ground is excellent with some stones. Paths and hardstandings are of coarse ballast. The most level pitches are up at the higher levels, away from the entrance.

Showers x 2 per sex and 3 washing up sinks are excellent with masses of hot water at good pressure. The Covid precautions in the washrooms seem anachronistically cautious but I was pleased with them.

Reception / campsite shop sells basics plus the site's own eggs, local sausages and superlative bacon baps and really good coffee in the mornings. It's open 9 - 11am and outside those times you phone the campsite's mobile. Someone will be with you in about 2 minutes. There's a useful laundry room.

You get to use the dryer until your things are actually dry, rather than n minutes on a timer. There's a full height fridge and an equally huge freezer, and a shelf of exchangeable books, drying racks and a setup for drying your boots. Excellent.

All the cold taps are potable. Black and grey waste are near the reception, along with recycling (glass separate, everything else in with the general waste).

The location is ideal for walking the best bits of Hadrian's Wall - we managed Birdoswald to the west and Housesteads to the east, plus Vindolanda. There's also good cycling and running south of Haltwhistle on the old railway bed.

The white-knuckle bus route means you can do lots of one-way walks. We got as far as Carlisle and Newcastle by car. Hexham is a pleasant market town with a big Waitrose and all the usual high street staples. The Beaumont Hotel's restaurant is excellent - we got a taxi there and back from the site one evening for a treat.

The atmosphere on site was excellent throughout our stay - quiet during the day, and the noise curfew was exceptionally well observed between 10:30pm and 8am. Chickens, rabbits and ducks pootle companionably and fearlessly around; there are swallows in abundance and a colony of starlings and sparrows.

We normally use the excellent Annstead Farm when we visit Northumberland but they've decided not to reopen their facilities because of Covid, so we found ourselves here instead.

There was more than enough interest to compensate for the loss of the seaside and castles and we had a splendid time. Would very happily return.

Reviewer: Roma07 48 reviews from this member

 The site has a good atmosphere, largely due to the welcoming couple who run the place, together with their two assistants.

More hilly than I had expected, but we were pitched on one of the terraced areas on a hardstanding with water tap adjacent.

Easy access to Hadrian's Wall path, and the bus service is a plus point.

Great to be able to get a coffee and bacon butty on site too!

 Hidden gem. Lovely campsite, well looked after and just had a new motorhome site extension. Generous plots.

Friendly helpful hosts, providing local knowledge and area must dos and walks and pubs. Perfect starting point for many walks.

Shop on-site for breakfast food and essentials.

Was a one stop flyby on a greater trip, but will definitely return here to explore more.

Reviewer: MBradbury 3 reviews from this member

 Nice site good position for walking Hadrians wall, caught the bus from the bottom of the lane to The Sill and walked back called at the Mile castle Inn for a drink then caught the bus back or you could walk back over the fields.

Shower and toilets good.

You do get a lot of tents but wardens are very good at keeping the noise down after 10. 30pm

Shame about the chicken poo(watch were you are walking)but nice to see them free range

Reviewer: Calivanman 6 reviews from this member

 Had an a great time here. The amenities are clean and in good condition. Ideally situated near the wall. Easy walk to Vindolanda and Haltwhistle.

We had a nice lunch at the mile castle pub. We stopped off at The Sill. Good information and shop and cafe or take a picnic.

Regular bus service that drops you off at all the tourist spots. Although they do drive fast.

Would definitely return.

The on site shop although small was well stocked and it did a small food menu, which we didn’t use but the bacon and sausage smelt lovely.

Reviewer: Philsh 1 review from this member

 The July weather was a little damp but the atmosphere and campsite definitely wasn't, excellent booking right through arrivals and setting up camp.

The location is fantastic and having a dog to walk out from site was the best.

Staff keep the site immaculate and Covid friendly initiatives really work and help make you feel safe.

Will go back
