Date of Visit: May 2008 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Famicon 13 reviews from this member

 Chose this site as our first go at caravanning. Took our big white dog with us. It is a very nicely laid out site and the toilet/washing facilities are excellent. Prefer the pitches on the perimeter rather than in the centre. Dog walk very handy but area for letting him off the lead is very small. Very happy with our 3 days stay and we will certainly return.

 Just got back from our first visit here. We went this weekend to tick it off our list, seeing as it's on our doorstep, half an hour away. Had a great time! The wardens were very helpful and friendly. The toilet/shower block was the best I've come across.

Ground a bit damp - but that's rain for you!

 This site is one of the best kept sites in the area. The shower block is the best(and warmest)I've seen. The wardens were extremely helpful and full of local knowledge.
When we stayed for a week in April the weather was freezing, with a heavy covering of snow on our first day, this actually added to our trip and made for some lovely pics. The surrounding area is great for walking with some stunning scenery in the nearby Northumberland National Park. I have never experienced so much wildlife on a caravn site. We actually saw an otter as well as a white owl taking off with a field mouse in its claws. The site sits right next to a large lake which is jam packed with migrating birds, the only downside to this was the racket when the wild geese took off around 6am.

Highlight of trip was a visit to nearby Cragside House and estate which is only about 7 miles away, you can quite easily spend an entire day here exploring house and grounds. This is a National Trust property. Entrance fee of £12 per adult is steep but free to NT members.

Best local food found was the Tankerville arms about 4 miles away where the bar meals (£8.95 for 2 courses)were of Egon Ronay standards

There are also 2 pubs in the nearby village of Powburn only 10 minutes walk which serve a lovely Sunday lunch

 Stayed here at Easter. Had 5 days of strong winds and snow but site was excellent. Best toilets I have seen for a caravan club site. It is within easy walking distance of a village with a pub that does massive cheap meals (£5.50 for Sunday lunch). Farmers shop in village as well. Great walking in the area and loads of things to see and do. Will definitely visit again but probably at a time of the year when weather will be better. 


Date of Visit: August 2007 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Alison0628 13 reviews from this member

 Great site, especially the toilet block which is new and immaculate. Be warned, however, that it gets very busy in season and there are not many hardstandings; if you are on grass, as you are likely to be unless it's quiet when you arrive, you will have to do without a groundsheet in your awning unless you want to lift it every day. This is normal Club policy which we agree with, but the wardens at this site are quite pushy about it (even when you're doing it, as we were - we got mildly irritated). Other than this niggle, no criticisms - well kept, excellently situated for many visits (Cragside, Lindisfarne, Alnwick Castle - not to be missed), and loads of wonderful walks in the area. For a special meal we recommend the Tankerville Arms in Eglingham.

Reviewer: Mystery_Shopper 3 reviews from this member

 This is a lovely site in the middle of nowhere with friendly staff.
 
It's perfect if you want a quiet holiday with excellent facilities or if you're prepared to travel, there are plenty of places to go.
 
The pub/restaurant down the road is within easy walking distance & serves excellent food at very reasonable prices.
 
If you intend to put up an awning, you'll need good quality rock pegs as the ground is very hard.
 
In fact, the site is around the corner from a former quarry which has been filled with water & resembles a lake with a bird sanctuary island where many species seemed to be nesting.
 
If you get the chance, check out the nearby Cragside Estate as it's ideal for romantic walks through the woods, rock gardens, various other types of gardens & waterfalls.

Reviewer: Snugasabug 3 reviews from this member

 Lovely Site, well worth a visit. New Toilet & Shower block, unbelievably clean! Tent area is small and can only hold about 8 tents. Set beside a quarry but you would never know. Easy walk  to Powburn where there are two Pubs. One beside a Petrol station and the other in the village, which allows dogs in! Wonderfull. We will definitely be going back.

Reviewer: Juniperblauw 1 review from this member

 This is a great site with superb shower / washroom / toilet facilities. The tent area is peaceful, flat and not far from the toilets / showers.
We really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to return in the future.
The site is a good touring point (by car) to some outstanding areas of beauty including Alnwick, Bamburgh castle, Dunstanburgh castle and the Scottish borders.
One improvement would be a small play area for young children with slide / swings etc. Otherwise, excellent

Reviewer: Smoggy 5 reviews from this member

 Very peaceful. If you like nature go for it. Not really much for the kids but we managed.Nearby towns lots to see and do. Showers were WOW great quality and well kept as you would expect. Garage near the site is handy in case you run out as they are open late and sell everything you need.
Don't know if we would go again but would recommend this for anyone who wants quiet or has active kids that like the outdoors

Reviewer: Diabl0 3 reviews from this member

 This is a fabulous site. Superb facilities and maintained to an excellent standard.

The tent area is small - about 6 or 7 pitches and does not offer electric hook up for tents. Several large tents would struggle to pitch here. A few picnic tables in tent area.

I can't praise this site highly enough, immaculately clean modern shower block, plentiful hot water, ample showers and privacy cubicles (wash basin in cubicle). Level grass pitches very well maintained.
