A very rural, quiet tidy site but no welcome. Despite have booked we had to guess where to pitch. However, it was excellent for twitchers with a wonderful dawn chorus, House Martens nesting in the shower block eaves and Guinea Fowl wandering around! We chose it so we could easily access Hadrian’s Wall – and we did! The facilities looked good but male, female and disabled showers were preset to scalding! The laundry room was well equipped, clean and tidy but the dishwashing station was 1 sink outside with no shelter.

On arrival to this site we were greeted by a very nice lady, who told us where we could park, and told us about facilities and if we had any problems where she was.
We had a nice level spot. Grass wasn't to hard so the awning went up well.
The price was very reasonable, the toilet and shower block were dated but very clean which is most important. Washing up area ok.
We were just using site as a base for going to Newcastle for the day, on Saturday, which it was ideal, only took 20minutes to get there.
We didn't really use any of the other facilities on site or in the area, although not far from hadrians wall, we drove up but couldn't see it, (it was raining very hard when we got there though)
Hexham was very nice.
We would definitely use again thank you.

Wellhouse Farm is a site on a working farm, a few miles north east of Corbridge. It is surrounded by farmland and nice scenery though there aren't public footpaths directly from the site. Access to the Roman Wall is a few miles north.
Facilities on site are quite basic - they do the job for a short stay. Pitches have EHU and there are lots of seasonal vans on site.
There's not much to do in the area so you're best off having a car to go to the local towns nearby.

My husband and I decided on a last minute getaway purely because we hadn't been camping all year and the weather forecast looked good. On arrival, we were directed by a friendly young lady to the bottom field where the non electric pitches were. We were surprised at how busy it was for the time of year. Even so, there was still loads of space to decide where to pitch our tent as the field is quite a good size. We paid £12 for one night which we feel is great value. I could mention a few small issues about the facilities in the main reception/shower block but I won't because I didn't pay a lot to expect perfection. As far as I am concerned, yes the toilet/shower block is a bit dated but it was always clean and the washing up areas were always left in a respectful state for the next person. To me this shows that people staying here care about the place and are considerate of other campers. You don't get that in a lot of other sites and you can't put a price on respect and consideration. We had a very relaxed and chilled out night away and will definitely be going back. Thank you.

Just enjoyed a weeks stay at Wellhouse Farm, the main 'Tourer' site is generally flat around the outer areas, with a gentle slope in the centre. The facilities are quite basic but kept clean and adequate. It appears that quite a few of the tourers are seasonal and the occupiers are friendly and helpful. The lady Warden can be found in an on site caravan as there is no 'Reception'. This is not a 'Regimented' site and offers a fairly relaxed and 'laid back' approach, i. E. We asked 'What time can we arrive?', 'when you want, just find a spot and pitch up, and leave whatever time you want!'. What must be taken into consideration is that 'Well House' is a working farm and with that goes the usual Farm traffic noise especially at busy times like this month, however I can honestly say I found this quite unobtrusive and part of the Rural experience. There are no local shops {3 or 4 Miles to Corbridge or 9 or so to the Supermarkets of Hexham) There are no pubs nearby so expect to use your car, Located just off the A69 it is ideal for the surrounding attractions like the Roman forts and museums that run the course of Hadrians Wall. Newcastle is only 14 miles away, and the Dark Sky areas of the Kielder Forest and Observatory are within easy reach. WellHouse Farm is well worth a visit.
Regards
John

First time ive stayed here and it wont be the last.
I phoned for availability on the same day I stayed. And got in. The lady I spoke to on the phone was very helpful. The site is just off the A69 and easy to access. Big open field and I picked the spot I wanted, which is what I like. Facilities were a bit basic, but clean and ok for what I wanted.
Hope this review is of use to you.

We have just returned from a two night stay at this camp site. We didn't use the facilities so cannot comment on them but found the site, as a whole, to be relaxed, clean and well managed. There was plenty of room for the children to run around and play and there were plenty of places to walk the dogs away from the site.
There is a 'no dogs off leads' rule which wasn't enforced while we were there. This didn't matter to us this time, (though I had to pick up dog muck around our pitch before we could put the awning up), as the weather was too bad to sit outside but it could be a problem if our dogs were tethered outside. This is my only negative and could easily be resolved. We would definitely stay here again.

We stayed at Wellhouse Farm for two nights. It would have been longer if work commitments had not prevailed. The site is beautifully located, next to a large golden cornfield. We arrived fairly late, by arrangement, and were greeted at the gate and showed where to go. We pitched at the bottom of the field; there was a slight slope and the grass was well-drained and mowed. The amenity block was in the caravan field, not too far away. It was quite old but clean and spacious, with soap and hand dryers. The disabled shower room was appreciated, and there ware also two wet rooms. We did not use the washing-up and laundry facilities but they looked perfectly adequate. The site has a 'quiet by 11pm' rule and there was no light pollution except a faint red glow in the sky from Newcastle, about 20 miles away(and from the extremely bright full moon!)
The site had no playground but children were seen to be happily amusing themselves in the ample space. The Hadrian's Wall path is less than a mile from the site and everywhere you look the views are spectacular.
I would not camp at this site during harvest time (because of the dust and noise) but I can imagine that children would be delighted to see a combine harvester at work in the next field. We will probably return, but not in August.

Beautiful settings, great facilities and very friendly people cant wait until we visit again in August. Children had fun in a safe environment on their bikes. Near to Corbridge and Hexham which are both lovely towns. Lots of birds wandering around site looking cute, fresh eggs to purchase and BBQ welcome.

Visited for 1 night (Saturday 31/05) to try out our new tent with the kids. We were greeted by a female staff member who was extremely friendly and showed us to an area where we could choose a pitch (100 yards from the toilet/shower block in the field on the left as you drive down the long driveway. £12 for the pitch, no electric but that's what we asked for. Luckily we were next to a couple who had kids who our two immediately made friends with and played with from morning till bed time.
Beautiful location in the Northumbrian countryside, we pitched adjacent to a full corn field which was very picturesque. Views across open fields to Newton and over towards the Military Road.
We had Sunday lunch in The Robin Hood Pub (5 mins away in the car) on the Military Road which was very reasonably priced and excellent home cooked food.
The shower/toilet block had all the facilities you need, and you can wash dishes in provided sinks situated indoors and out. Also has a washing machine and dryer at a couple of quid a go, and handy. Next to this is a sluice to empty and clean your chemical toilets. The facilities although ample are a bit tired and could have been tidier and cleaner. However, they wouldn't stop us visiting again.
Once your on the site there is not much to do but we just wanted to test the tent and chill for 36 hours so ideal.
Very friendly site over all and very dog friendly. Good value and well worth a visit.
