About the site


The campsite is based within roughly 10 minutes' drive of Alnwick and around four minutes from the ancient St Oswald's Way which offers lovely views. Explore the harbour at Craster (10 minutes' drive away) or try some watersports on the sandy beach at Alnmouth, close by. Grassed pitches are reinforced with mesh or there are a set of hardstandings too which will suit motorhomes and campervans. For those travelling without a tent, hiring a comfy bell tent is ideal. Each bell tent comes furnished with a double bed, chair beds and a handy campers kitchen. A perfect way to travel light! This family friendly site allows dogs, camp fires and off ground BBQs.

Open from 28 April to 1 October

FAQ

Absolutely, up to two well-behaved dogs per pitch are more than welcome.

BBQs are permitted as long as they are kept off of the ground.


Seaton Point is a nice place for a dawdle and you won't want to miss sandy Alnmouth beach (10 mins) or unspoilt Warkworth beach which is a few minutes further

Fishing trips are possible from Craster (by pre-booking) and the town is a great place to potter around art galleries, taste some traditional kippers and get to know local life.

Also well worth seeing is the National Trust's Dunstanburgh Castle (15 mins) and Alnwick itself which has interesting shops and a steam railway.
