Date of Visit: July 2014 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Diogenes3 4 reviews from this member

 Our second visit in the second year. Again we were happy campers. As a family of four with a family tent and a preference for small to medium sized sites, we cannot ask for much more than a lovely Green in nice nature (by a stream) next to sheep, with a luxurious camper for facilities like fridge, sofa, real shower. The downside, if there is one, is that facilities, while tidy, are limited in number. There is no potential for growth, so it better not grew.

Reviewer: Nicky1705 2 reviews from this member

 Arrived back from Walkmill 4 days ago, and we absolutely loved it. Great wee site, especially if you like quiet and peaceful, relaxation and great views. Road was a little tricky, but would`nt say it would be a problem to experienced caravanners. We were booked in for 3 nights and ended up staying 6, and even at that we would have stayed longer if we could of. Ideal for surrounding towns and Berwick only 30 mins drive. Alnwick nearest town with a variety of supermarkets, shops, cafes etc, we were regular visitors to Lidl there. Static caravan is a great idea for those needing to use showers and yes there is a bath too, which came in handy with our 5 yr old grandaughter. Was lovely to just go over and sit in the lounge as was so peaceful, with only the bleating sheep and lambs, birds. We will def be back here, a gem of a site, Nic and Claire, the owners, are very accomadating and were happy to help with anything. Nic even let us pick raspberries as the good weather spell had them in full bloom. Cannot wait to return to walkmill 


Date of Visit: June 2014 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Annieold 1 review from this member

 Just spent a perfect week at this lovely site. As stated ny other reviewers, the site has everything you need and the owners are very attentive and kind. The directions given were very good and avoided a fast flowing ford on one route from Warkworth.

We fell in love with Amble and upwards along the Northumbrian coastline and this site is perfectly situated. From the many static caravan parks in the area and the few touring parks that we saw, we were really pleased that we chose Walkmill. The space between caravans is very good and if you are adventurous, there are pitches down the hill by the river without EHU. If you enjoy walking, it's perfect but for those less able, car or motorhome etc is needed to get off the site. No laundry facilities but a service is available from the owner. I loved the sound of the sheep too! 


Date of Visit: May 2014 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Smartecosse 14 reviews from this member

 Just back from three days at Walkmill over the bank holiday weekend.

This was our children's (7 & 5) introduction to camping in the UK and they thoroughly enjoyed the trip, especially the campsite trampoline!

The directions that were emailed were very easy to follow and on arrival we were directed to our spot. We had chosen to have an ehu so we were on the top half of the site, near the house, with lovely views down across the field to the river bank.

The grass pitch was nice and level and there was plenty of space between each pitch so although it was full over the weekend it didn’t seem like we had no space. The tents that were down by the river had vast amounts of space to themselves shared only with the lambs and the sheep in the field with them. The one negative I would say would be if you were camping down by the river and trekking up to the toilets at night it would be hard to avoid some of the sheep muck in the field as there was a lot of it, didn’t bother us as we were at the top part and didn’t have to walk through the field in the dark but something to be wary of if you have little kids etc.

Lots of bleating from the sheep with the lambs which we didn’t find off putting at all, our kids rather enjoyed it but I guess some people may not like it. I would certainly prefer that over loud music etc that you get at other sites. Overall a very nice peaceful site set in some lovely countryside and close to some nice attractions.

We visited Warkworth Castle which was very good and Dunstanburgh Castle which wasn’t that enjoyable as a castle but had a lovely walk along to the coast to get to it. Amble market on the Sunday morning seemed mainly to be cheap tat but there was a fish stall selling some wonderful seafood at good prices and we got some delicious Cumberland sausages from the butchers stall there.

The static caravan that is used as the toilet / shower block was exceptionally clean over the whole three days that we were there, even though the site was full for two of the nights. As well as the two toilets in the static itself there are two chemical toilets in two little huts at the end of the static and I was told that the plumbing is in for these now and the chemical ones will shortly be replaced with proper porcelain ones.

There is a large trampoline that our kids loved (and the other children on the site as well) and a box full of other outdoor games such as cricket, croquet and badminton.

We had a wonderful three day break and will be back……excellent value for money. 


Date of Visit: April 2014 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Sqreech 2 reviews from this member

 Set in an idyllic spot next to the river, with sheep in the fields (including young lambs) this site offers a very relaxing get away. The facilities are clean and tidy; the wife enjoyed the 'proper' bathroom located in the mobile home. The home also has a lounge that has a tv for those that feel the need. Our level pitch was nestled in a crook of the river, which whilst a bit of a walk to the facilities, and didn't have electric, was a perfect place to unwind and escape from the rest of the world.

The site is well placed to explore the beautiful Northumberland coast line.

Small convenience stores are located in nearby Amble and Shilbottle and there are 2 supermarkets in Alnwick about 15 minutes away.

We were made to feel very welcome by the owners.

The only slight negative was getting our caravan up the track at the end of our stay. It is a stone track up a fairly steep bank which caused a fair amount of consternation trying to maintain momentum.

Overall an excellent, basic site providing brilliant value for money

Reviewer: Sweetpea1 8 reviews from this member

 One of the warmest welcomes I have ever had. We have been members of the caravan club for years and always had a good welcome but the welcome the warden gave us was second to none. Nothing is a problem to her and the site is very well maintained. I would also like to thank her and other caravanners when we had a few problems. THANK YOU

Reviewer: Lindaray 3 reviews from this member

 This is a fantastic site especially for children. We took our two grandsons in August last year and they loved it. The trampoline is great and the static caravan is really good especially for the campers. We took our touring caravan and our son camped at the riverside the owner is very friendly and helpful it's the best site that we've been on when taking the children, it's really safe with only a track and quite a way from the main road which suited us. Will definitely be returning this year even though we only live 30 minutes away there is so much to do and the beaches are beautiful.

Reviewer: JimJAM71 4 reviews from this member

 We chose this site as we wanted to switch off, relax and enjoy some peace and quiet. Walkmill delivered this in abundance.

The directions provided by the site were easy to follow and when we arrived we were met by Claire. The pitch for our touring caravan overlooked the lower field and river, with plenty of space for our children to enjoy (in particular the trampoline).

The static caravan was immaculate and even though they were fully booked whilst we were there, we never had to queue. There are also plenty of games & puzzles in the static for your children to enjoy on a rainy day.

We bought our bikes and cycled from the campsite to Almouth & back. A bit of a challenge with all the hills, but we and our two boys managed it (just!). Alnwick castle was fantastic, so much so we visited twice. Broomstick training was fun and our boys loved the knight training. Parking at Almouth breach for sandcastles and rock pooling was £1. 50 a day.

We would highly recommend this site and will be returning.

Thank you for a wonderful stay!

 We first chanced upon Walkmill in August 2012 and were immediately entranced. We have now spent so much time here our caravan has grown roots! To say we love this place is an understatement, to us it represents everything a caravan site should be: delightful location, delightful atmosphere and, above all, the most delightful hosts in Claire and Nick. As far as we are concerned, there simply aren't enough superlatives to describe this beautiful place. It doesn't matter where we go, we always end up back here time and time again.

Reviewer: Almaz 37 reviews from this member

 Most reviews of this site have been very positive but I think I need to give another less favourable view of it. It's certainly a nice location and the people running it seem really nice, but to say its 5 minutes from Warkworth is stretching it a bit. The approach road/track is pretty awful and in total must be about 3 miles. You need to drive quite slowly to be safe. Also, the facilities are limited. There is one shower that serves the caravans and the tents and the Gents toilet floor is dodgy to say the least. We went with another couple in their tourer and like us they felt that the impression given is you can fairly easily walk into Warkworth. Fortunately we do a lot of walking but it'll take you at least 45 minutes to get there. You need to be aware too that as the kids' facilities are in the middle of the site, if there any about it can be quite noisy, despite the location!
