 After reading other reviews and spending a week here myself, I really do think it depends on whereabouts you are pitched as to how enjoyable your stay.
We were unfortunately pitched about 5ft from the park and also right behind a walk way and a fence which, although said no climbing to access the park, was completely ignored. So although at first glance our pitch looked to be sizable, it was simply a cut through for either the kids to get on the park or campers to get to the facillities. To say there was no peace was an understatement. We had kids screaming on the park at 6. 30 'push me higher daddy!' And then general chitter chatter right outside our bedroom window about who was making breakfast from 7 am. We tried to have a bbq one evening but due to so many kids running through our pitch we gave up, having drinks knocked over and items stood on! Now I have children and I don't mind noise and running about but this was ridiculous. We had a cycle round the site and could see how different the other pitches were. We were number 31 and I would agree with another review here that pitches 29 30 & 31 should be avoided as you have absolutely no privacy.
The area itself is stunning and the location is very central to the attractions Northumberland has to offer.
The park and large field clearly proves a hit with kids. The site also allow fire pits which look lovely.
The site was very busy, summer hols and bank holiday week and I found the facilities to be rather dirty. I don't mind out dated or basic but I found these to be rather unclean. This could have been down to the sheer volume of people there however. I noticed that the wooden huts/wigwams had the use of separate facilities which could account for the differing reviews of the facilities.
All in all would definitely return to the area but not the site. Whilst there we also saw on 2 separate occasions motorhomes go out for the day to find on their return, their pitch had been taken. One person was told that there wasn't any spare pitches so despite the fact they had paid for several more nights, they would have to leave, no apology, or anything. In fact when the customer started to complain, he was ordered to leave the site immediately! We witnessed this conversation and to be honest we felt very uncomfortable. Not exactly good service, so motorhomes beware!

Just returned from our second visit to this site and once again we weren't disappointed. We personally really like the location, not too far from the A1 so easy to get to and within walking distance from a stunning beach. The site is well kept, spacious and friendly.
I can't comment about the facilities simply because we always use our own but some friends of ours used the showers and said they we great.
I personally wouldn't think twice about returning and recommending this site.

This was a first time stay for us at Springhill. We wanted to stay somewhere local to us as this was our first outing in our caravan.
It is set near the top of the hill and has a lovely view of the sea and Bamburgh castle. It was rather windy and we waited until the next day before we attempted putting the awning up.
We were pitched near the camping field on a hardstanding pitch with electric, we were originally going to be near the bunkhouse but so very glad we weren't as the it was rather loud near the bunkhouse and wigwams and we prefer peace on the evening to get children to sleep.
You can hire fire pits but this isn't something we did. The shop is OK and prices are reasonable.
We went into Seahouses a few times and as shops there for food etc, a petrol station, gift shop and plenty of fish and chip shops!
We went for a stroll round the harbour, went on a boat trip to see the seals, went to the Bunkhouse which has a softplay in and crazy golf outside and generally relaxed on site. The children loved the play area and I felt confident in letting the oldest go off to play.
Not much contact with the staff as when we arrived our names and pitch number were up on the board and we didn't see them much.
The showers were ok, clean and hot, the toilets were ok. There are laundry facilities and washing up area with (very) hot water.
All in all a good experience.

We have just returned from a three night stay at this site and already planning our next trip. We pitched our tent in the camping field which was really flat and the other half had no problems hammering the pegs in which pleased him immensely! Plenty of space around the tents, the loos/showers are a bit of a hike but far preferred to be on the camping field away from the play area and the noisy visitors at the bunkhouse! The loos/showers were always clean apart from the floors being a little dirty but given you have to walk over wet grass to get to them it's to be expected and could be easily resolved if people simply wiped their feet before entering the building. Had no issues with noise on a night but would not like to be near the bunkhouse as it was pretty rowdy there, and would also like to see people respecting the rules of keeping dogs on leads as plenty of them insisted on roaming free and approaching my own dog which was on its lead creating a bit of a territorial barking match! There was a fridge and freezer which we used (thanks to the cheeky monkey helping themselves to my milk!), washing machines, dryer, iron and hairdryer! Seahouses is within walking distance but I didn't fancy taking child and dog along the narrow lanes so drove there and parked up, beach there is beautiful! Also visited Bamburgh and holy island during our stay, wish we were still there!

Just arrived back from Springhill Farm we spent 2 weeks here and on the whole a very good site - however, only a few gripes that I feel they will get right in time and with a little more investment.
1. Not enough toilets and showers - needs another block down near the entrance to camping field.
2. Disabled toilets/shower should be only for the disabled and not for young families convenience e. G for use of those only with radar key - otherwise provide a separate family room for those with young families.
3. With so many dogs a small exercise field could be provided on site - they have needs too. And cannot be expected to cross their legs for a mile before they reach an exercise area. We are responsible dog owners and pick up. But a lot are not and one mum was cleaning up a little girl who had fell into something not so nice.
Right moan over - would really recommend this site to anyone wanting a fabulous base for the surrounding beautiful area. Will visit again when in area. But not with someone who is disabled (a bit difficult)

Great location, plenty of lovely walks and beaches to explore. Sea houses is close by, just a short walk along quiet roads. The staff are helpful and friendly whenever we saw them. The only let down, the facilities are poor, only 2 toilets in the gents, I don't appreciate queuing in the morning for a sit down! Also the showers are hot and powerful but tiny, I am not a giant at 6 foot but I couldn't stand under the showers fixed head because it is so low. Perhaps the site owners should have spent some money on the campers facilities rather than building all the camping pods and bunk houses. Will definitely be going back to the area but not to this site.

Lovely Site, Toilets were cleaned regularly and Showers were also clean and hot. Excellent location for walks to Bamburgh, Seahouses and Beadnell Bay. Staff were pleasant on arrival and friendly.
This area of Northumberland is simply stunning. Good choice of eating places in Seahouses, I can recommend the Indian Brasserie and Pinnacles fish and chips who let the dog in the restaurant.

We stayed for 2 nights in early June, our second visit. Facilities are excellent, very clean and plenty of hot water for the free and powerful showers. Pitches are generously sized and many have lovely sea views. A real bonus of this site is that it is walkable to Seahouses and the beach in approx 25 mins. This was great for us as we did a boat trip to the Farne Islands and were able to stroll down to the harbour rather than needing to take the 'van and find somewhere to park. This is a site that is very hard to fault, well located, well run, reasonably priced and a lovely setting. Keep up the good work Springhill Farm!

We stayed here for two nights recently. We were fitted in by moving pitch for the second night which wasn't a problem at all. The first thing to say is that the young man in reception wasn't very helpful and didn't seem to know what he was doing. I had forgotten to mention our awning when booking and he charged me £9. 00 which I'm sure was wrong. Anyway, the site itself is nice, the showers and toilets were clean and warm and there are freezers, fridge, washing machine and dryer which we didn't use but useful if you do.
At night, the site is nice and quiet and we used the time to visit Seahouses where we had lovely fish and chips. We also went out to Holy Island for the morning and visited Bamburgh Castle.
A good site and we'd stay again.

Great facilities in the corner of the campsite but a long walk if you are on the overflow field. The overflow camping field was excellent (no electric), with big flat pitches and lots of space. The 'inner' camping field (with electric) was a bit more crowded but we walked through late at night and people were being very respectful having regard to keeping quiet etc. Excellent facilities for kids and good information from the helpers in the shop /reception. Only gripe was the number of sit down toilets for blokes, only two, fun in the mornings. Site needs a second toilet block, more centrally located. Great views but the overflow field is exposed so be prepared for windy conditions.
