 Beautiful campsite in an amazing location however really, it's only for fully equipped caravans, despite the site saying tents too, because the only toilet / wash facilities are in a static caravan, which someone else was staying in.
The site is approx 40 minutes walk from Warkworth which has good selection of pubs, attractions and of course the Castle.
The site is surrounded by a river, offering a peaceful, tranquil environment.
Staff were all very friendly and accommodating but the toilet situation was the only negative.

Just returned from our 5th weekend break at Walkmill (1st this year ) I've been a little slow in leaving a review as we'd like to keep the place all to ourselves but maybe that's just being downright selfish. We're sort of new to caravanning having bought our 1st little 2 birth ( no shower or hot water ) van back in June last year. Finding this beautiful site definitely made us think if this is caravanning we want to be away every weekend so much so we took the plunge into buying a bigger van with a few mod cons in the hope we could visit Walkmill as often as we could.
Set in the most tranquil spot you could imagine surrounded on three sides by the river Coquet it is a must for anyone wishing peace & quiet not to mention the wildlife. My other half originally from the area goes on & on about about what he calls god's country, telling me how when god made the earth Northumberland was the last place created which is when he knew he had it right. ( I think I have to agree ). Walkworth, Amble, Alnwick, Bamburgh, Alnmouth, Dunstanborough, Seahouses, Craster, (fantastic crab soup at the Jolly Fisherman pub & kippers from the Smokey opposite ) Cragside, Rothbury, in fact the whole area is stunning but a must are the Farnes & Holy Island. ( check the tide table ) Sunday there is a great market in Amble on the harbor with more bargains then you can shake a stick at & a van that does a real stotty bacon sandwich.
Nick & Claire a lovely couple who have offered us a warm welcome on every visit, the 5 touring pitches are large & spacious on perfectly level ground although was quite spongy back at the end of October after heavy rain ( but what can you expect ) On that occasion Nick did offer us hard standing but it wasn't that soggy so opted for the views from the field ( did leave a few tyre tracks leaving though, sorry Nick )
This little site is absolutely spotless other then maybe standing in some rabbit or deer poo on your walk around the river. Nick keeps the grass well cut & even cuts a track down to & around the river which is a lovely short walk on a summer evening. I saw my first Kingfisher & found Otter tracks not far from the stone barbecue where you can enjoy burning your sausages as you watch the river meander by. We have also seen Owls, (one sitting on a tree above our van) watched a Heron who seemed oblivious to us sitting on the river bank fishing for his supper, lots of buzzards high in the sky putting on fantastic ariel displays, ( take your binoculars it's free)
My best experience ever was this weekend, ( January 2012 ) 9 am sitting having my morning coffee, the ground twinkling with a hard haw frost & the sun just rising over the tree tops making the whole scene look like a Christmas card, two deer came out of the trees not 20 yards from our van crossing the track onto the frost covered field before bouncing off up the hill. ( a fantastic start to any day) We will be returning time & time again I hope.

What a gem. We found Walkmill by accident in 2009 and have been back twice since then. This very quiet and secluded site is accessed a few hundred yards off a country road and surrounds the owners beautifully restored old farmhouse. The handful of pitches are all on grass, level and well spaced with stunning views over the river below. There are electric hook ups available and a place to empty toilet cassettes. The owners and their young family are very welcoming hosts and will happily impart their local knowledge if asked.
This is a stunning part of the country with easy access to so many fantastic family attractions -local pool, beaches, castles and country houses. Our children especially enjoyed Wet'n'Wild in Newcastle.
We did our main shopping in Alnwick's supermarket but there are plenty of other shops within a 10 minute drive of the site or less if you want to brave the ford into Walkworth.
Placed halfway between Berwick and Newcastle we found this an ideal place to begin to explore the diversity of Northumberland.
See if you can check out the areas near to the site on google earth.
As always do your homework prepare well and plan your visit and like our family you will keep going back.

This is a lovely little site close to Warkworth. We have now stayed twice and thoroughly enjoyed both visits. The site is very private with plenty of room between the pitches. It is encircled by the river Coquet and there are lots of walks or cycle rides in all directions. Warkworth has pubs and shops as well as the Castle. The site is only a short drive or longish walk to the beautiful beach at Warkworth. The site has no toilet or shower facilities. Claire and Nick are very hospitable and have made us feel very welcome.

The second time we stayed at Walkmill we stayed at ’Balmoral’ the holiday home rather than in our tourer. We stayed during the half term holiday in October 2010 when the weather was turning cold. We found ‘Balmarol’ spacious and warm. We loved using the kitchen and there’s the choice of using a shower or bath in the bathroom and having two toilets was useful.
Shops are about six miles away so we were able to stock up on a good selection of food. It’s also possible to buy fresh produce and eggs from the owners of Walkmill who have hens and a vegetable garden.
There are many local attractions within easy reach of Walkmill.
We’ve been made to feel very welcome both times we’ve visited Walkmill.

We found this site by recommendation and we're so glad we did. It is well off the beaten track but if you like a rural site this is perfect.
The site is well off the local road, down a private track tucked behind a beautifully renovated barn (home to the owners)
The site is large and partly sloping, down to the River Coquet - A picturesque river which flows round two sides of the field and is home to large fish, otters and other wildlife. A paradise for nature lovers and older children who like to splash about in the water!
We received a very warm welcome from Nick, Clare and their boys, Oliver and Benji who soon made friends with our sons and made them feel very welcome on the trampoline and building dens by the river.
Who needs a Kids Club to entertain children when they can have proper old fashioned fun with new-found friends?
If you can tear yourself away from the peace and quiet of the site (which is beautifully maintained) there is so much to do in the surrounding area you will never be bored, especially if you like exploring castles; Alnwick, Warkworth, Lindisfarne, Dunstanburgh etc.
We were lucky to see a fantastic medieval battle re-enactment at Warkworth - our boys are still talking about it. The coast is great, the beaches are deserted even in the school holidays and there are some pleasant coastal walks.
A trip to the Farne Islands from Seahouses is a great day out, as is Cragside House near Rothbury.
But the real joy of this site is being able to get away from it all, sample nature, rest, relax and enjoy a very warm welcome to a beautiful spot. You may even get freshly laid eggs on your doorstep!
