 Friendly welcome, large pitches, excellent toilet facilities and the pub does fantastic meals

Amble only 3 miles away, car boot sale Saturday, market on Sunday. Castles within an hours drive as is Alwick Gardens and Castle (do not allow dogs). Also Seahouses was a nice day out too!

I would recommend this site. Just a tip when pithcing up make sure you get a sunny pitch as it gets cold in the shade.

 We have just spent the Jubilee weekend at the Railway Inn campsite and will certainly use it as a base for our next Northumbrian adventure.

The owners are very welcoming and the bar staff super helpful. On the Sunday they had a hog roast and party along with a great live band and even though the restaurant was closed they still sorted out a sticky toffee pudding especially for my little boy.

The food is excellent and the menu very different from your typical pub fodder – we ate at a different pub one night which, whilst it was very pleasant, was not a patch on the Railway.

On the way into Warkworth there is the Morwick Farm Ice Cream Parlour which you must visit – probably don’t do it the 1st day you arrive because you will be back everyday to sample more flavours!

The area for tents is small but that makes the site so much friendlier, it is advisable to book ahead. The site is very clean and the facilities great, the only thing I would suggest would be wooden boards in the shower area.

This trip goes down as one of our best camping experiences we’ve visited beaches, seen castles galore and even got up close and personal with the puffins and seals.

We will definitely be back.

Reviewer: Ambleby 1 review from this member

 This site is wonderfully situated within a lovely area.

Unfortunately the site itself is rather disappointing. Although previously advised of the closeness of the railway we did not realise it was the mainline to Scotland we stayed for 4 nights and not one of those was undisturbed for the night the noise was very loud.

Although the facilities were adequate, I am afraid they appeared not to have been attended or cleaned for some time, to the state we decided to find other washing facilities, my wife refused point blank to use the toilets.

Before booking this site I read the reports on this site. I am confuse as to how the site can have apparently slipped so much in such a short time.

I have also read reports after we stayed, I do not think we are super critical, so find these a little hard to understand.

It was the least clean of all the sites we visited in the UK.

The state of the shower block, toilets and washing facilities is so important.

In the last few years the sites have improved so much, this one is a shame.

As a positive the people are very nice!

 We stopped here for 1 night

1st time here, the pitches are huge plenty of room for your van & awning plus your car

The site is small but is spotless the shower block is one of the best you will come across

It was lovely to sit in the beer garden

It is ideal for the Northumbria coast & the Scottish borders

Although we live quite close to the site we will be going back it, s a lovely place to sit & chill

The owners & staff are very helpful & polite

Well worth a visit but book in advance because it will get busy

 Just can back from a lovely weekend break from the Railway Inn with my Wife, 8 year old daughter, 9 month old son and dog, The site was clean and well laid out, 22 pitches with a mixture of hard and grass pitches, with electric and some with water tap free of charge. Pitches are huge, toilet and shower block are clean and warm, they seemed to be well cared for and in good condition. The park is for under 10's is a bit small but ideal to lose the kids for 15-20 minutes while setting up.

The pub itself is great, has activities on at certain times of the week, has an outdoor drinking area, dogs are aloud in the bar area, separate from the restaurant, however food can be eaten in the bar. The food was fantastic but a little expensive for us.

The site is approximately 4 miles from the Town of Walkworth with its Castle grounds which is worth a visit, and also beach a further 3/4 mile from the castle. Amble is also about 4 miles away which has a good little shopping street and market on the harbour side on Sunday mornings. A fantastic site for the start of the season and will definitely be visiting again.

 We had a lovely 2 night stay at this site.

Only a small site but very well kept, owners and staff in the pub really friendly.

Toilets and showers were clean and warm.

It is close to the railway line so you do hear the trains but this didn't bother us at all - our little boy loved it!

Would recommend having a meal in the Railway Inn Pub too - It was lovely. Gorgeous food!

Some lovely places nearby to visit too - we spent a day at Whitehouse Farm - brilliant!

Would stay here again - very nice site in a lovely part of the country.

 We have just had a weekend here. It was a good site for us as there was a lot of Geocaching in the local area. The staff were very polite and very helpful. People on the site were very friendly. The toilet block was very clean plenty of hot water no matter what time of the day you went. The whole campsite was really clean. There are only 22 pitches and no tents but a very very nice site.

We did hear the trains but after a while you tended not to notice then. The pitches were very large and spacious.

The food in the pub was to die for so so nice. We will definitely be revisiting. Thank you for a great Stay.

 We have just spent 2 nights at the Railway Inn. We chose the coldest weekend we've had for ages to try out our new 1990 swift dannette, and had a lovely weekend.

The site was perfect for our needs, big hard standing sites, perfect for a quick winter caravanning weekend, there's also grassy area for caravans and tents. A nice little park that the kids enjoyed, and basic but perfectly adequate toilet and shower block, well lit and warm!

Best of all a lovely pub and restaurant, dogs allowed in the bar, we had two really tasty meals, not your usual pub fodder! Oh, also surrounded by beautiful Northumbrian countryside and three miles from the coast.

We will definitely be back!

Reviewer: Sarsy4 1 review from this member

 If you are planning to stay around northumberland, this is a good choice. What a friendly place to stay, first night we got there (Tuesday) we got asked to enter the quiz. Didn't do so well but had a good time anyway. Great location for site seeing holy island was only thirty five miles away and well worth a visit. (a good breakfast place just near the causeway as well. )the railway served good food and good beer. The facilities were excellent, immaculate toilet and shower block. Highly recommended. I will definitely be making a return later on in the year.

 Lovely rural site (would highly recommend the use of rock pegs)

Has a toilet and shower block with washing up sink outside.

Pitches are a little small length wise. Our Hi Gear Zanobia 6 guides would have been too long for the pitch if we hadn't wound them shorter.

T he Railway Inn is expensive for a drink £3 for a pint of real ale.

Would recommend this site for a nice quiet time.

Is ideal for visiting Alnwick, Seahouses.
