we stayed at Springhill Farm last summer. Great site and our son loved it (he cried when we left!) We visited alnwick for the day. I think it took us about 30-40 minutes in the car.

Hope this helps

Hi, Nunnykirk is not far away, plenty of open space, no park for the kids just green and woodland.  Went to Alnwick castle last year, great place to visit, the kids would love the maze in Alnwick gardens. The castle is definetly child friendly. Also a castle to visit would be Bamburgh and a great beach.

Hope you have a good time.

We visited Waren campsite and I have a brochure with the prices if you want them. It is a bit dearer than some but there were some dearer sites in the area and one or two that looked poor. We live about 30 miles away and had a trip around this area checking campsites a few weeks ago and it was the best site for us out of 8 we visited. We usually have children with us. We ran out of time to look at Springhill Farm so can't comment on that one except it is in a good area near Seahouses.

Hi, if you're up there on the weekend of 6/7th August our re-enactment group will be invading the castle and putting on a battle all weekend, there will be lots going on for the children.

We will be looking for a campsite ourselves for a few days on the way up from Essex to break the journey up, was looking at the York area.
