Located between the North Pennines AONB and Northumberland National Park, Sunniside House Camping is a back-to-basics campsite offering non-electric grass tent pitches and a handful of non-electric touring pitches. Both family friendly and dog friendly, it's a great base for exploring the region's rich network of walking and cycling trails, as well as visiting landmarks like Hadrian's Wall. Best yet, there's a local pub within walking distance.

About Sunniside House Camping

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 with the dog. 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 15 unmarked non-electric grass pitches for tents in a spacious field overlooking the valley, as well as five non-electric touring pitches for campervans, motorhomes and roof tents. The touring pitches are divided by woven willow screenings for privacy and come with private log seating areas or picnic benches. From exploring the historic town of Hexham (ten 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 away. Dogs are welcome but must be kept of leads around the site. 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.

Open from 1 April to 30 September
