 An interesting site in a fine location with good facilities including a workable wi-fi. However the pitches for motor homes are extremely tight, even more so than a busy French Aire - disappointing as their charges are quite high and extra is demanded for a motor home compared to a campervan. Also we could do without so many notices around with threats of on the spot fines for this that and the other - not the way to encourage good behaviour.

Just had an excellent long weekend at this most delightful site hidden away in a hillside of Northumberland. The entire process from making the booking to our departure was pleasant and so simple.
We were greeted on arrival by a warm and friendly warden followed by a brief but detailed tour of the site and facilities. We were even given advice as to where best to site our caravan for the great views and sunsets!
From then on, apart from our interventions with wardens, we were completely left to our own devices.
This is a beautiful clean quiet site, tucked in the hillsides and away from main roads, but less than a mile from some key areas of Hadrians wall.
The pitches were very well presented and the facilities all spotless, a credit to the wardens.
The sites facilities included separate male and female wash rooms and each included; shower cubicles, separate toilet cubicles, wash basins and hand dryers.
There was a laundry room, complete with washer and dryer, and to the outside of the rustic timber building, there were pot washing facilities.
The site also has a small shop that sells the basics as well as refreshments and nibbles, although as the site wasn't busy this didn't appear open during our stay.
The site has a number of hard standing and soft pitches, the latter being on various levels throughout the site, giving every visitor a chance to obtain a great view from their pitch! Access to pitches with a large tourer was relatively simple and unencumbered, all pitches appeared relatively flat and level.
Electric hook up was to 10Amp point, so there was ample power for heating and other electrical necessities during our stay.
The sites Wifi cover was acceptable for our occasional needs, mobile phone coverage was good, (only able to comment on EE), radio signal was also good, and we assume TV coverage similar.
The site was dog friendly, and there was sufficient space for anyone with children to play without upsetting other holiday makers.
There are numerous walks from the site, but it's worth investing in an OS map to make best use of the paths and course ways.
Locally, a good walk or short drive, there are plenty of pubs serving food and assorted beers / ales, and if you wanted a bigger shop, there is also a reasonable sized Sainsbury's in Haltwhistle.
We would certainly visit this site again, it gets a 10 out of 10 from both of us!

Fantastic little site, really well set out and stunning views. Wardens are lovely and friendly, very helpful and great on site provisions and you can order homemade breakfast and pizza for dinner. Facilities are great, very clean, everything you could need. Site is in a great location for Hadrians Wall, if we had of found this earlier in the trip we would have stayed longer. Local pub about mile & half The Milecastle Inn is excellent, lovely food & staff.

Wow, what a wonderful site, brilliant reception from the wardens, told us where everything was.
The site is on different levels so you could be at base station or k2
There is a small shop on site.
Toilets very clean and tidy.
No play ground for children, but maybe this is not a site for children.
Plenty of walks around the area, Hadrians Wall being one of them.
Pub about 1 mile 1/2 miles
Had a nice relaxed few days here.

This is a Site with so much going for it:
* Excellent staff, friendly, helpful, toilets and washing areas were always clean
* Location - ~1 mile from the Wall and within walking distance of some of the most iconic parts - Housesteads, Sycamore Gap, Cawfields.
* Quiet area but just off the B6318 Military Rd.
* Good quality toilets and showers.
We only saw one drawback in that motorhomes were packed in very close together.
This seems to be a Site that gets a lot of one night stops for Motorhomes, but it is ideally located for anyone exploring the area. Its an easy, less than 2 mile walk across fields to Haltwhistle too.

Found the site easily, although a bit isolated, and near Hadrians Wall, and therefore we spoke to a few visitors from other countries who were walking the Wall, which was nice.
Lovely site with immaculate toilets and showers, with music played even late at night. Sue and her husband always cleaning. Very friendly and helpful couple. They have a small shop and café on site, but we didn't use either.
Our tent was pitched at the highest level, called Everest, (not that high really) which had great views, and lovely on our first day, but, very windy for the second.
Small pond near reception which the ducks enjoyed.
The birds around our tent were great to see. Singing away from 5am!
Nothing really for the children, no play area.
But we loved this site and look forward to returning soon.

This is a small but well formed campsite. The facilities are well cared for and the wardens very friendly. The local pub is pleasant but a bit of a walk away. The main attraction is proximity to Hadrian's Wall. The site is terraced so pitches are flat and I liked that the terraces are named after Himalayan mountains. There are no facilities specifically for children but there are chickens and ducks for them to see. It has WiFi for a small donation in the charity box and you can hire BBQs for a fee. The shop had fresh baked scones when we were there and they are well worth sampling if you see them.

This was my second stay, I liked it so much last August I decided to spend Easter here. The great attraction for this site is its isolated location, only a brisk walk down the lane to the Wall itself. As you would expect, the landscape is amazing and you really feel that you are there when at the campsite. The facilities are modern and immaculately kept. The wardens gave a very warm welcome and were very helpful throughout my stay. They run a little shop with some essential items, constructive criticism is that they could expand the stock; a freezer with some frozen foods would be nice, though I understand that most visitors in caravans and motorhomes would be coming better stocked than I was. It is pleasant to walk over the fields to Haltwhistle.

My wife and I spent a night here, The owner Sue was very helpful and friendly. We were allocated a hard standing with electric hook up. The toilet/showers were spotless. Cooked breakfast is available if ordered night before (pity I only found this out in the morning. Lol). The views are spectacular. We were told about local pubs and shops but as we were only there for the night we didn't use them. Personally we could not fault the place.
Can't wait to go back in the very near future and stay longer.

We stayed here the week before Xmas 2014 and had a fantastic time. We pretty much had the site to ourselves, so it was nice and peaceful. There is so much history in the area, personally I find it awe inspiring. When you see first hand the scale of 'The Wall', with the huge ditch behind it, lime kilns to make mortar built along the way as well, it makes you realise what an immense undertaking it must have been. It would cost billions to create today, (and they'd probably still be over budget!) It pretty much tipped it down the whole time we were there, which eventually led to the drains overflowing on site, though this was purely down to the amount of water which fell, and the site owner saw to it quickly and as unobtrusively as possible. Very good considering the time of year. Lovely clean and spacious toilets and showers, it bugs me when some members rate these as inadequate. If you want a hotel, you're on the wrong type of holiday! All in all we had a lovely stay here and will definitely go back again, though probably out of season again to avoid the crowds. There's another site less than a mile away which charges double what this one does, I'd go to this one if I were you.

A very pleasant experience. The site is well signposted and, although the approach roads are fairly narrow, there are plenty of places to pass. The scenery is superb, the staff are very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the area. The facilities are also first class. The farm has ducks, chickens and sheep and one particular hen, Jeanie, does like to make herself at home! Would definitely return.

This was our second stay on this campsite, fantastic views good size pitches and very friendly staff. We originally booked in for two nights but the weather was awful so stayed on for an extra couple of nights in the end we didn't want to leave. All facilities are clean only issue is with having a button push on shower however I can understand why it's there. Very child and dog friendly and I will definitely be booking to come back. Thanks guys.

Fantastic site. Very clean and friendly. Lovely views.
Chickens, rabbits and ducks roaming the campsite. Duck pond in the middle.
Cafe/shop which had just about anything you might need including the wifi password for a small donation which goes to charity.
Lovely walks in the area (the tree from Robin Hood prince of thieves isn't far away)and the twice brewed pud is only about a mile and a half and does very nice food.
Haltwhistle (the centre of Britain) is a short drive away and has a co-op for anything you might need that the camp shop doesn't have.
Plenty of roman forts in the area.
