 Lovely site in a great location. Facilities spotless at all times.

Shop has limited opening but the village co-op is only two minutes away.

As the site is quite small there is limited space for children to play but it didn't present any problems as there is so much to do in the local area - it might be an issue for those that sit by their unit all day.

Recommend organic farm for sausages, bacon and burgers.

 This really is the friendliest site we've been to, the staff are very friendly and helpful. My partner was refereed to as the last England supporter (we had just lost out the world cup

The toilets and other facilities were spotless all the time, yes the site is close to the road but we did not this

A problem as their is not much traffic at night

The village of Bellingham itself is a nice and is only about 20 mins walk away.

Not far away are Kielder Water and forest, and Hadrians Wall

 Having arrived at the site we were disappointed to be sited near the road which turned out to be rather noisy and not ideal. We were told that they were trying to locate all short stay visitors to this area of the site, whereby we felt penalised for only staying three nights.

The facilities were very clean and well presented.

The dog walk area was very short and with tree branches being overgrown not ideal.

The village of Bellingham was very nice, also the surrounding area beautiful.

 After three weeks of great sites on our tour round holiday we were a little disappointed with this site. The assistant warden at check in was not at all welcoming and looked as if she was fed up with campers checking in although her partner was helpful in showing us a pitch.

The site was full and we found the constant stream of people walking on the stones at the side of our van very noisy at night.

The showers were press button and I lost count of the times I had to press to get a short shower, very frustrating. Also the shower block only had three showers for over 60 units so queuing was normal. Shower block closed at 10.30 until 12, sometimes later, my husband tried to go at 12.40 and they were still blocked off, rather early to close when people had to return quite a few times to get into a shower.

Lots of midges on the site, not the fault of the club naturally. Would not use this site again. Shame as the area is lovely.

 A lovely well kept site. Flat pitches with immaculate shower blocks and facilities. The staff are always ready with a smile and a pleasant word. Ideally located for exploring Kielder and Hadrians Wall country.

The village and all amenities are a short walk and the Co-op stays open until late.The local bus will stop on request outside the site and Hexham can be reached directly. Good places to eat close by. Me and my blue haired gal keep going back because we are so well looked after!

 Stayed at the end of the Spring Bank Holiday Week with great weather. The facilities were always clean, exceptionally so, even though the site was full. The individual wash cubicles and baby change great when you have little ones. There have been some improvements to the play area too. Don't know if site has had issue with inconsiderate parking of extra vehicles but need to park in village, car park can't be used.

Reviewer: Teddyjennifluff 1 review from this member

 Visited during the school holiday/bank holiday- May/June. The site was absolutely full, and more crowded than other sites we have visited. This had an impact on the toilet blocks, with only 6 showers between 60+ pitches there were often queues. The floors were always soaking wet and some of those little grid things you can stand on would be useful.

If you are considering booking a Pod its worth knowing that these are situated right beside the children's playground, so not exactly peaceful. They are pretty small too and close together, probably great if there is a group of you going, but not much privacy otherwise. There were lots of dogs. We had one with us, and so did nearly everyone else, some people had 3 or 4. This was not an issue for us but its worth knowing if you or you kids don't like them.

To be honest we did not find the Franchisees particularly helpful. Checking in was a muddled affair, staff seemingly not knowing what to do and it took ages. Also we decided to leave on the Friday evening although we had booked our pitch until the Saturday.

They also charge 50p to freeze an ice pack for your coolbox, I have not encountered a charge for this before at other sites visited. .

The location is fantastic, Bellingham village shops can supply all your needs, the bakers is especially good and if you are desperate for a chinese, the one there is excellent- a little pricey but huge portions. Kielder water is beautiful and the north east coast is well worth a visit, especially Druridge bay.

 We just had 3 nights at this site and my 3 kids (ages 12,10 & 8) loved it. It is a very pretty site, facilities all very clean and the staff are the nicest and friendliest I have come across yet, (nothing was a problem even considering it was bank holiday weekend and they were rushed off their feet).

The only problem we had was our hook up wire wasn't long enough to reach the socket, but they lent us an extension (had to pay £25 deposit but got it back).

There's a little park and handy basic shop. Definitely will go back.

Reviewer: TheDawgs 15 reviews from this member

 The pitch was nice and flat. Be advised however the pitches closest to the road can be quite noisy. We both sleep very well so this wasn't a problem for us but I guess this may be an issue for some. The traffic was still going past in the night and sounded like a train was bearing down on the tent! This wouldn't put me off staying again though.

We are non-members so it was very expensive for us (approx £27 per night - 2 adults, 2 dogs). The pitch was very spacious which was nice and the surroundings we're really lovely. The staff were really helpful and friendly too.

The barrier and facilities were all security controlled which was great. The washing up area / toilets / showers were exceptionally clean, nice and warm with lots of hot water. The dog walk on site was very short but we found you can walk into the town along the river which the dogs loved.

Definitely recommended (especially if you're a club member).

 Very friendly welcome, both the owners and the assistants went out of their way to help. We were given a choice of any pitch available. We asked for one away from the road and were shown an excellent, large level pitch in the corner.

The site is very clean and tidy. The toilet Block was immaculately clean, the water was always hot. The only slightly negative points are that there were only 2 water or waste points on the site and the elsan was in the toilet block which was off the main part of the site and quite a distance from some of the pitches. My poor little trolley was very hard to pull on the loose gravel site road.

A very good point was the provision of a single toilet and was basin for use when the main toilet was closed.

Bellingham was a nice little village with better shops than expected. Having heard may times about the great beauty of Kielder I must say that as geriatrics unable to mountain bike or walk the 27 miles around the shore we were very disappointed. The shore of the reservoir was like a lot of others, just bigger but mostly the views were conifer after conifer after even more conifer.
