Reviewer: Paul Hockney 10 reviews from this member

 Good location 20min walk to town, easily accessible from A1,

We stayed one night with ehu, payment was in an honesty box,

Showers and toilets very clean and showers were nice and hot.

The bar at the club house is open every night except Mondays, as we stayed on a Monday night we can't comment on the club bar.

Will stay again if in the area.

Reviewer: Kathle 1 review from this member

 What a fantastic site. We were a bit apprehensive as usually book sites with more facilities, etc. However, this site was perfect for us. It was central and just a 15/20 minute walk to restaurants and the castle.

There was plenty of space, basic but super facilities that were clean and tidy. The showers were lovely and hot and powerful. The facilities are in the rugby club building and included toilets, sinks, large communal (single-sex) changing areas and showers (with curtains).

My children were allowed to play on their bikes on the rugby field (this keeps them happy for hours/days 🤣)! They had oodles of open, safe, car-free space to play in. Absolutely perfect for them!

On Tuesday evening there was training on the field so we got to watch that while having a drink in the club house. The bar is lovely and the staff very friendly and helpful.

The only negative is the little playground. We were not expecting one so it was no problem to us and our kids did have a little play in it with no issues. However, it was in need of some TLC so for some people with little kids, this might be a disappointment/problem.

Would definitely stay here again!

 I love going here

As a family of teenagers and a 1 year old we found plenty do while here and just loved the peace and quiet of the site

All the staff were friendly and helpful and the little one loved his freedom of being able be outside and running around on the field and as we loved it that much we are going back in May next year to see some of the things we did not do this time round

Reviewer: Dmsull 1 review from this member

 If you want somewhere a bit different and good value then the Alnwick rugby club is that.

You park around the edge of the two practice pitches, so both hard standing (quite a lot of stones as it continues from the car park) and grass with and without EHU. It can also take larger vehicles in the car park.

The facilities are the rugby clubs changing rooms, so communal but with private showers which were hot. The facilities were very clean.

There is a bar open on 5 evenings and you either pay for your pitch in there or there is an honesty box for cash just inside by the changing rooms.

You are about 10 minutes walk into Alnwick town, and 20 from the castle. There is a Sainsbury and Marks and Spencer food hall 5 minutes away. Plus Turnbull’s which is a high class deli and butchers next to M&S.

This site is a great base for exploring Alnwick and the surrounding area, but not for those who like to sit and look at the view, (though we did like watching rugby practice) as there isn’t one. Would recommend Cragside, Treehouse restaurant and Barter Books for looking at and they have a great coffee shop.

We would stay again, and would recommend this site, as it’s not far off the A1 it’s also good for an overnight stop if travelling on to somewhere else.

 Ease of booking and a text a few days before to tell us where our pitch was, rules on bbqs, arrival and departure times.

Nice big pitches with our name/ number of nights, toilet and shower facilities were open all day and night.

Friendly and helpful bar staff.

Lovely big conservatory attached to the clubhouse so we could sit outside undercover with our dog

Wonderful location for Lindisfarne/ Holy island and Bamburgh.

We will certainly be back

 We had a lovely stay at Alnwick Rugby Club. Everything spotless, all staff extremely helpful. Will definitely return.

Easy walking distance to Alnwick centre. No negatives at all.

Would happily recommend.

Alnwick is a 15 minute walk. Co-op 5 minute walk away. Argos, Sainsburys and other stores 8 minute walk from site.

Rugby club bar open Fri Sat Sun evenings.

Shower block and toilets are cleaned twice a day.

Reviewer: Jandl7 1 review from this member

 Lovely site, was quite busy but had plenty of room,

Facilities were adequate and the price was very reasonable,

Only couple minutes from the A1 and only 20 minute walk into Alnwick,

Buses run not far from the site into Alnwick

So all in all a very nice site to visit.

 Good friendly welcome as usual.

Site facilities are always well looked after, showers are great and always clean.

Plenty going on around the site with football, golf, cycling and walking.

Leisure center close by as are shops and local transport links.

A cracking wee site and has everything you'll need.

 Can’t fault it site.

Really clean, shower block well maintained and clean, , dog friendly. And a good pint (or 4).

20 mins walk into Alnwick and 15mins to the beautiful Northumberland coastline.

Reviewer: Iangpr 1 review from this member

 Excellent site with both grass and hard standing pitches.

The Staff were very helpful as to the site and with their local knowledge.

All facilities including a decent set of showers and lots of hot water.

Just a short stroll into town to Alnwick castle and Gardens, the best secondhand bookshop in the area and lots of shops and an arts centre.

I think that camping helped support the Rugby Club with its bar open on an evening selling more than reasonably priced drinks.

What’s not to like?

Reviewer: Johnt8 1 review from this member

 Arrived mid afternoon. Site is large and was asked to part at the far side of the rugby pitch. Ground was OK, although it had been raining and was worried about grounding, but it was firm. The facilities are OK, with grey waste disposal and fresh water. Not sure about an Elsan point.

There are three things that concerned me and the reason for leaving after one night.

1. Parked near a caravan who then proceed to fire up a generator. We had no choice but to move as far away as possible from them as possible.

2. The site is a 15 minute walk to the town and the castle. Having made a quick visit came back to find, someone had pitched up so close to me that I could have touched them! Amazing considering the was plenty of space on the field to park up with consideration for others.

3. Then settled down for the evening to the waft of cannabis for some time.

Mentioned this to the wardens when checking out the next day to be told " People are idiots and we find it impossible to get them to follow our 3 rules, let alone common sense". Never saw anything relating to their rules. I'd suggest they prepare something in advance to email or hand out on arrival regarding rules and facilities.

 The pitch was very basic and a little bumpy, but had everything we needed.

Toilets and shower very clean, and a very nice and warm welcome!

Would definitely come again to visit Alnwick, which is only a 15 minutes walk away.
