About the site
With panoramic views over the Tyne Valley and Pennine peaks, this peaceful campsite is a great option for campers seeking a no-frills nature getaway. Located just outside of Acomb, a small village near Hexham, the site is easy to access from the A69 and makes a great base for exploring Northumberland. The site offers ten unmarked non electric grass pitches for tents in a spacious field overlooking the valley, and five non electric touring pitches for campervans, motorhomes and three roofbox tents pitches. The touring pitches are divided by woven willow screenings for privacy and come with private log seating areas or picnic benches. Awnings and gazebos are allowed on site however at an additional cost. From exploring the historic town of Hexham (five minutes away) to visiting Hadrian's Wall or the Salmon Ladder on the River Tyne, there's plenty to do locally. Further afield, Northumberland National Park and Newcastle are both under half an hour. BBQs are permitted as long as they are raised from the ground, and campfires are permitted in the fire pit grills available for hire at the reception.
