Spent a long bank holiday weekend on this site, it is in an excellent location with great views, relatively easy to find and access with a caravan, (use directions on their website) and a short drive from Bamburgh and Seahouses. I would recommend the Copper Kettle in Bamburgh for lunch or afternoon tea.
There is a restaurant/clubhouse on site, but this was very busy in the evenings so we did not try it.
There is generally a large field for tents and a large field for touring caravans, sharing a toilet block between them. This is a big site, but the vast majority is given over to static caravans on the rest of the site. Although not the largest toilet block for the amount of people staying on the site we didn't have to queue at all, and the block was regularly cleaned. Water in the showers was just about hot enough for me, but in the sinks it was extremely hot.
Only a few fully serviced pitched with water and drain, but plenty of water taps and drains for the rest of us and good clean waste recycling areas around the site.
A very well stocked shop on site, too. Amazed at the things they had there, including a wallpaper flattener :)
Good facilities for kids - we didn't use the splash pools but there were lots of swings, climbing frames and a zip wire in the main area which was the main attraction.
The only downside to this site is the amount of touring caravans they try to fit on. As this was a bank holiday weekend it was busy with nearly all pitches full it was quite interesting trying to get to our pitch and maneuver the caravan into place (no motor mover). There was just about enough room for the 'van on hardstanding, the awning on the grass beside and the car at the front, other pitches were really struggling for room, leaving cars to block access routes.
The staff were good in asking if we needed help to get onto the pitch, and advising where to park the car so a fire engine could access the site if required, but this all seemed to go out of the window by the Sunday night with cars parked everywhere.
Although a busy site it was quiet from 10pm onwards, and we would return to stay there if in the area again.
This was a half term trip with our two kids and our first towing with a tourer. Amazing location, excellent site.
Facilities excellent, very clean and well kept. Location is superb, beautiful area also with fantastic nature walk on the site. Couldn't fault the service and the value for money great. Full service pitch Easy to access. Very family friendly. For a family new to caravanning, this was a perfect start. Will certainly be using this as a benchmark for future trips. Overall an easy 10/10.
Lovely campsite and perfect for families. The pitches are nice and flat and have stunning views out to sea. The shower and toilet facilities are the best we've had; music and a heater in the main ones and also there are family bathrooms which are great. The owners are very thoughtful and organised a teddy bears picnic for the kids, and even though this was rained off they made the effort to give out the picnics they'd made to all the kids which was a nice touch :-)
The best thing is definitely the play facilities for chikdren. Massive central football field, two playgrounds including a wooden obstacle course and a zip wire. Our boys (4 & 6) loved it and were hardly at the tent!
We ate in the restaurant one night and the food was great. A bit pricy but worth it for the convenience.
Location-wise it's brilliant. You can see Lindisfarm and Bamburgh Castle from the site, and it's a short drive from the area's tourist attractions.
Overall, fantastic family site which we would happily return to :-)
A really great site, the best we have been to in three years of touring.
The location is brilliant for exploring the area, 15 mins north and you are in Berwick, or Holy island and the same sort of time south and you are at Craster, with Bamburgh, Seahouses, Beadnell and Low Newton on the way. All the beaches are fantastic and the quaint little villages have plenty to do with good pubs, restaurants, castles, boat trips and some great walks.
The site is perfectly clean and really well laid out with an earth mound covered in trees shielding the pitches from the sea breeze. In the centre of the pitches is a good kids play park easily visible from your pitch so the kids can be supervised, whilst letting them have a little bit of freedom that isn't always possible at home.
The touring facilities were always clean and smelling of zoflora (or similar) good sized showers with loads of hot water and plenty of cubicles so even at the early morning busy time there was no queues. Half a dozen family wet rooms are fantastic, the missus said showering our two young girls was an absolute doddle compared to anywhere else we've been.
Whilst here we encountered no problems and didn't have to call on the wardens for anything, but they were friendly and spoke on passing. The site was lively throughout the day, but very quiet after dark and we all slept really well.
The larger site has more parks for the kids, one with an amazing view point covering half of Northumberland.
The shop is a little bit expensive but the small well thought out range covers everything you might have forgotten.
The bar is good with a decent range, nice seating and a good patio, overlooking the lovely kids pool.
We didn't eat at the site but the food looked good and was a reasonable price.
Brilliant camp site, we are just back from a 3 night stay here with our 2yr old son. The site is big and caters for campers & caravans
All the toilets & showers were very clean and well maintained which helped a great deal with a wee one and a wife who was not keen on camping before we went.
The staff are all very friendly & helpful especially the lady in the shop who went out her way to get me ice from the bar as there was none in the shop.
There are male & female toilet/shower blocks and a family area which has rooms with showers & toilets & one room has a bath (key available from reception for a £5 refundable deposit)
There is a bar which is reasonable for a holiday camp - a pint of Carling was £3. 05, Smirnoff £2. 60
The bar also sold food, we had takeaway one night from the bar which was ok (if you don't mind paying £6. 45 for a chicken burger & chips - but we had missed the shop so had little other option) and we had breakfast one morning which was very good
The 2 swing park areas are good and kept our wee boy amused.
Berwick Upon Tweed is 30 mins away north up the A1 and is good for a trip (a market on Wednesdays), we also went to Seahouses which was only 10 mins south on the A1 and found The Bunker soft play area for kids which was great to pass a rainy morning
I cannot rate the cleanliness of this site high enough, it really was a high standard considering how busy the site was during our stay
We will definitely stay here again however I think we would go for electric hook up tent pitch as a small heater would have been nice as it got quite cold quite quickly once the sun went down
The facilities are great, lots of showers and hot water for dishes etc (too hot if anything). There are family rooms for showers, swimming/splash pool for the kids, decent bar with good food, just about everything you could want.
Everyone was really friendly and helpful, we weren't allowed a fire which was disappointing but understandable.
The lower oval is a great area for kids to let off some steam. I read the poor review below, it is not an area to go if you do not have kids or want absolute peace and quiet. It was noisy, but not overly so. There was a nice atmosphere of everyone having fun.
This was our second stop on the way to Scotland with the idea of visiting Holy Island and Berwick upon Tweed. We wouldn't normally pick large commercial sites but this was a late choice and a good one. It was a late on the Friday when I phoned them and they were very accommodating. A level grass pitch with hook up. Toilet blocks clean and tidy. We eat in the bar and found the food good and reasonably priced. After a little hunting we found the motorhome service point, the writing on the site plan was a little small.
Could not fault the location, access in, friendly receptionist,
Campsite in a wonderful area for touring
Facilities showers and toilets were clean and very acceptable, cleaner in them at 9am which was good to see.
Our own complaint would be the huge amount of noisy children running about, playing ball games, riding scooters etc and because they were noisy some parents felt they had to be even louder. The cut off for being quiet is 11pm, we personally would have liked this yo be 10pm, felt sorry for those that were trying yo get younger children to sleep.
I would say if you were a family and you wanted your children from under your feet, this was the site for them to make friends and go wild.
We had to move to a bit quieter section of the site if your without children ask for this when you book in.
Stayed here on a Wednesday Thursday and Friday. The pitch was level with picnic bench along side it. Lady in reception very helpful we got three nights for the price of two! The restaurant meals were great. Quick service and the fruit crumble and custard is a must! All the food we had there was spot on and very reasonable. The site is huge with lovely cabins and static caravans. The whole site (which we did walk round) is spotless. The shop well stocked, the toilet and shower block very clean, plenty of hot water and piped music. The only downside for us oldies! Was the filming of Vera which was going on from the 9th June until 22nd June. There was people everywhere and if they wanted to take over say the pool area or the kiddies playing field, they just tapped it off and 'tough'. The amount of vans and cars driving around everywhere was somewhat dangerous. But all in all not to bad. The site came to life on the Friday night, when it seems everyone and their caravan turned up, let the kids loose and the peace and quiet was replaced with children on scooters, on the roads, and shouting and screaming what seemed like all night! No problems just a difference from one day to the next. Would return to this lovely site, as ideal for holy island, bambergh castle and sea houses. (Well worth a boat ride to see the Puffins). All in all a lovely, welcoming clean site, with everything you could wish for.
We have just returned from a 2 night weekend stay at this campsite, and I must admit, I would go back next weekend if possible. The whole experience was fabulous from start to finish.
On arriving at the site we were met by a friendly and very helpful member of staff, who directed us to our pitch and told us all about the facilities. The pitches were all very even with easy access to water, toilets & shower block & rubbish corners. The only negative is that the tents seem to be quite close together, although that leaves plenty of room in the centre of the fields for children to play.
The toilets & shower blocks were always spotless, with hot water at all times & an added bonus of music piped in. The bar area & restaurant were also very clean & well stocked with reasonably priced food & drink. The most important area, (according to the kids) is the communal splash pool area & beer garden. The ambience of this area is second to none with a safe place for the kids to play, & also the adults to congregate.
The surrounding area is spectacular with an abundance of places to visit; Holy Island, Bamburgh, Seahouses, Berwick to name but a few.
All in all, this site is an absolute gem! It has everything you would need or indeed want. Get youself booked into this site ASAP!
Very impressed with site. Fantastic views over budle bay and holy island. Extremely child friendly site. Kids ran around the oval all weekend, played on the park and had a great time with their new friends. The facilities were great - family shower rooms especially good with young family. Bar and restaurant look nice, although didn't have a chance to try them. Can't wait to go back!
Just passing through the area and wanted to stay a night at Budle Bay Campsite but it wasn't open so decided to try this site.
It is on top of the hills and is a static, tent and touring caravan site with lots of facilities including a bar, restaurant and pool. Not my usual thing but the staff were great, the place spick and span and the views over the coast would be awesome on a sunnier day. It is close to beaches and Bamburgh Castle though it is at the top of a climb if you wanted to walk there.
I had a good nights sleep as the place was very quiet being the time of year it is.
All in all a nice place if you want a song and dance type campsite.
This was our first stopover for two nights on our way back from Scotland. It was very quiet as there were only 2 other units on the touring site. I would imagine it would be very busy in high season as this is a lovely park with good facilities. Not too sure about the proximity of local pubs/shops as we had already been into Seahouses (15 minutes drive away) to buy supplies. The toilets/showers were impeccably clean and we found the staff in reception and the shop very friendly and helpful. We ate in the restaurant one night and found the food good value for money. We wandered around the site and found a beautiful small nature reserve with fantastic views to Lindesfarne. The coastal walk is signposted nearby and it's only a 15 minute walk down to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and wished we'd booked for longer instead of driving further south to another park for a further 2 nights. We loved the location and will definitely be coming back.
