Reviewer: Katew2 1 review from this member

 This is a lovely site with large grass pitches and beautiful views.

There is no toilet block facilities, which was not a problem at all for us.

Great dog walking field on site.

But the best thing about this site is the warden and his wife. They are super helpful, welcoming and friendly. Thank you to them both for a lovely stay.

Location good for exploring coastline, though no takeaway facilities very near

Reviewer: Wendy Allen 3 reviews from this member

 We found this site overcrowded and the pitches far too small. The facilities were dated and not clean. We have a very small pod caravan and our pitch was a tiny square of mud only just big enough to put our canopy up.

The elsan point is a hole in the ground next to the path to the facilities and often spills over it. The fresh water tap is next to it.

The showers were not heated and limited to times. There was no real active measures re Covid 19 except a few signs.

The path to the toilets and showers was very narrow and social distancing was not adhered to.

We left three days early(paid for 6) as we did not feel safe. When we asked for a refund we did not even receive a reply.

Would not recommend or ever return.

 First ever trip with a tourer and it was a great site to find our feet.

The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly,

The site was lovely and the facilities were well kept.

We would definitely recommend and it is definitely somewhere we will return to in the future

Reviewer: Kevleask 1 review from this member

 We booked for a 2 night stay in our little tent with our dog

We were given plot 16 which was a quite little one just behind the reception next to the river

The staff were very friendly and helpful

My only little gripe would be with covid they had to shut the toilets and showers which were very close so it was a bit of a hike to the main toilet block

But apart from that it was a very nice little break for us

Reviewer: Denhaa 1 review from this member

 I'm afraid social distancing was impossible as there were too many people on the site.

They need to place sanitizer on entering buildings plus notices.

Good at enforcing no music or noise after 10. 30am.

 First trip out with the new caravan. Site is easily accessible even for newbies like us. Very good layout. Water and waste reasonably close to all pitches.

Toilets and showers open and regularly cleaned. Additional precautions in place to reflect COVID concerns.

Pitch was a good size. Site busy but quiet.

Reviewer: Sparkyshep 1 review from this member

 Been to may sites over the years. The hired help were friendly.

The gravel pitch was fine. A very basic site if it can be constucted with 6inch planks of wood then it will be. Bins overflowing no one rotating the empty bins to the front.

Camper service point and I use the term loosely poorly positioned on the one way system. Feels like they had a go got bored and gave up. Not one for us.

Toilet area really need more cleaning especially with covid about.

 Budle Bay campsite.

Lovely little site, would definitely return. Lovely location just off the A1. 2/3 miles to Bamburgh to the north and about the same distance to Seahouses in the opposite direction.

Booked online which wasn't quite straightforward as it kept timing out. Really friendly staff, very helpful.

Toilets and showers open. Regular cleaning in place. All other facilities located in the middle of the camp. Small river running through the site and we saw a heron flying low then landing in the field.

10 min walk out of the campsite to overlook a part of the Lindisfarne nature reserve

Reviewer: Verian 1 review from this member

 Stayed here 3 nights in July. I can honestly say this is lovely site, well kept and the staff are so friendly.

The showers opened on the day we left as they were being prepared for covid specifications whilst we were there but toilets open for use following the guidelines x Sue one of the wardens was lovely and so friendly to chat to.

He Warden and his wife were also very accommodating and went out of their way to make sure we had the perfect pitch for us. He gave all the information we needed and led us to our pitch.

Lovely clean site 2 mins from the bay and a lovely walk along the beach/5 min drive to Bamburgh castle and close to Seahouses where there is lovely Fish and chips to be had to eat by the harbour.

All in all will not hesitate to return to this site and recommend for anyone of any age to visit.

 Friendly site close to the shore, good bird watching.

Facilities closed because of the COVID pandemic when we visited.

But had a nice tour of the area.

Reviewer: Louissa 27 reviews from this member

 We've stayed at this site a couple of times now - both times for a single night out-of-season while passing through the area. It's not the best site in the world but it's fine for that or as a base for a couple of nights exploring the area.

The warden is friendly and very accommodating when we were a last minute booking.

The site seems to be mostly given over to seasonal caravans but there are spaces for tourers and tents. When we've been, out of season, it's been very quiet despite all the vans.

The toilets & showers are ok - a little tired (the push taps need a bit of tlc) - and the pot wash feels a bit bolted on but does its job.

One issue we have isn't with the site itself but a small warning: there aren't any good places to walk dogs nearby. As other people have noted, the road back to Bamburgh is busy/fast and there isn't a footpath, and anyway the beach is more of a marsh mudflat than a sandy bay.

Reviewer: Flearn 12 reviews from this member

 Tent pitches on a slope which was good considering the amount of rain we got while there. Site would feel crammed if full.

Toilets and showers clean and all working.

Plenty of water and electric points.

Excellent area to explore Bamburgh castle and Holy Island.
