Hi, we want to take the kids to see
Lidisfarne, Holy Island etc, on the Northumberland Coast. Can anyone recommend child friendly but small site?

It's not small and not everyone's cup of tea but we enjoyed Havens Haggerstone Castle. Not for from Lindisfarne

All these are handy for Holy Island, Bamburgh, seahouse & Alnwick. Not small sites, but excellent.

There also one near Beal but I cannot find any info on it & Haggerston Castle is nearby too but I personally hate the place.

Visited Haggerston a few times over the years & kids have loved it & it ticked all the boxes for keeping everyone happy no matter what the weather was doing. But last time was in Aug 2010 & it was horrendous, dirty, overcrowded & very noisy. My daughter who was 9 at the time said she never wanted to go back either which suits me :-)

We stayed at Springhill Farm this year and have booked to go again in may. Its a lovely site near to Seahouses and lots of things near to see and do. A friend of mine has stayed at Haggerston a few times and loves it. Personally I don't like large sites with entertainment etc.

I love the huge Northumberland beaches, but check your tide tables to choose the best day and time for going to Lindisfarne - once we couldn't get over to the island, another time we had to twiddle our thumbs over there as it was high tide when we'd had enough.

-------------
2024 = 20 sites / 41 nights. 2023 = 9/23. 2022 = 13/35. 2021 = 11/29. 2020 = 4/20. 2019 = 13/35. 2018 = 20/33. 2017 = 10/22. 2016 = 19/33. 2015 = 15 sites / 27 nights. Didn't count 1976 to 2014.
