Date of Visit: August 2014 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: LoopyLoo68 1 review from this member

 Stayed here with family - 2 adults and 4 kids (6yrs to 14yrs)

Loved the site and location. Staff were very busy but extremely helpful. I had to wait to check in but was then given a great deal of information about site and surrounding area. We were shown different pitches and told pros and cons.

Site is flat and drains well. We experienced heavy rain and although some surrounding roads flooded the site had relatively few puddles and drained quickly once the rain stopped.

Shop is very well stocked with camping essentials at reasonable prices.

Slightly disappointed with the play area which was small and quickly filled.

A couple of buildings seem unused and site could benefit from TV/games room.

WiFi is free and slow but OK if you are just checking emails.

Would recommend a day out to Kielder forest.

 Just got back from first visit to Bellingham and will certainly be returning soon. Lovely clean well kept site. Toilet block immaculate, with plenty of piping hot water. Little shop handy for forgotten bits!Nice walk into village along riverside, three pubs for replenishment before return to site!Village also has good butchers, bakers, tearooms as well as good old co-op for all your provisions.

 This is a well laid out site with mainly level, hard stand pitches. Very welcoming and helpful owners and assistants. Shop stocked with essentials and the best bacon I have ever tasted. The toilet/shower room was spacious and spotlessly clean with radio 2 piped into it. Fifteen minute walk into the town where there is a Co-op and several specialist shops and cafes as well as several pubs. As a walker the area is second to none and only fifteen minutes drive to Kielder water and all the activities that has to offer. Free wi-fi but it is rather slow but then again so is the Camping and Caravanning clubs own system which you have to pay for. Excellent all round site. 


Date of Visit: June 2014 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Jan/phil+holly 25 reviews from this member

 Arrived a little early but co owner said he would let us through coded barrier and show us our pitch options and allow us to get pitched then go and pay etc later. Very friendly chap [Dave], and when we went to the well stocked shop/reception to pay, the warm welcome continued. Our pitch was very large and in good order and as we went a tour round later we were impressed with the layout and condition of the whole site, and the showers and toilets were kept immaculate. The only slight negative with us having a dog of a more mature age was the lack of an on site dog walk/exercise area, which means a 15 min walk towards Bellingham or, if like us jump in car and 2mins away is Jubilee park which goes down to the river and then you can go either way along river walk. Although there is a short walk at edge of site its not really enough and can get a bit muddy at times this means a 9. 5 instead of a 10/10. Visited local village which is only 20 min stroll or less than 5 mins by car and has co op, small bakers a butchers shop. Nearby[10miles] Kielder water is an absolute must place to visit, we went on a Sunday and had great time and with there being so many areas to go and park up around the lake it doesn't seem to be overcrowded, and there are loads of great places to access the water to allow dogs to cool off and have a good swim. We will definitely be returning to this site again soon. 


Date of Visit: May 2014 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Johnnyb1 1 review from this member

 Just spent 3 delightful days at Bellingham, it really is a gem of a sight. The wardens are friendly and unobtrusive and will go the extra mile, dogs are welcomed and and the toilets and showers are excellent. The small shop has great local bacon and eggs and a small grocery selection and ice cream which always makes me happy ! Bellingham itself is a short 15 to 20 minute walk away and on the flat both ways. We enjoyed a lovely and very large dinner at the Cheviot Hotel and enjoyed a drink in the other two pubs as well. All in all a great site and we will be back.

Date of Visit: April 2014 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: ChrisDH2 2 reviews from this member

 Stayed here in a large tent with electric hook up.

Nice friendly welcome and showed to our pitch.

Staff were helpful in helping us find hiking routes, even had a few free handouts with maps.

Very clean and warm facilities.

Not much for kids on site but spotted a little park on way into Bellingham village which is about 5 mins walk.

Will definitely be going back. 


Date of Visit: April 2014 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Chrisjwilcox 6 reviews from this member

 A wonderful site with the most friendly and helpful wardens/owners. On arrival we were allowed to choose our pitch, we had only just had a motor mover fitted to our new caravan and this was my first attempt to turn the van around to face the 'wrong way'. We provided half an hours entertainment to other campers and to a very patient and helpful warden!

The facilities are excellent, perfectly maintained. The surrounding area is stunning, it is Northumberland after all!

Bellingham village is a 10 min walk from the site, a small supermarket, shops, pubs, heritage centre with a super cafe.

We will be back, with our bikes next time! 


Date of Visit: October 2013 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: THXTEX 3 reviews from this member

 AWESOME! We love this site. First visit too! Definitely coming back, maybe at Christmas. Lovely hosts and the biggest and best shower cubicles we've ever seen!

The planned activities were a winner in our eyes. Kielder Birds of Prey, hog roast (local pub) and pumpkin carving competition were excellent.

The site is very well situated for exploring a fair chunk of the North East, with Kielder, Hadrian's Wall and the Tyne Valley within easy driving distances. Not forgetting the lovely town of Bellingham on your doorstep.

The on site shop was well stocked, the best we've seen in 5 years of touring, with local produce at the forefront and every day essentials available. The site also has free wifi (well it was when we were there!).

In short, you can't go wrong with this club site. Can't wait to go back!

 We had overnight stop at this campsite. It was very midgey so don't think it's only in Scotland where you get them. It has good facilities.

We used sat nav to find the site but our destination was further up the road than the sat nav thought. We met a couple walking towards us who said they too had difficulty reaching their destination. We had a few yards to go to along the road and the campsite was on the right. It would be helpful if the club arranged for some direction signs to avoid this happening in the future.

 Spending May Day weekend on this superb site. Met on arrival by the owners who are really friendly. Directed to a superb grandstanding. At the moment our grandson is playing in the on site playground with new friends. We have been into Bellingham to look around & shop this morning and up to Kielder Water this afternoon. We went up to Kielder Observatory at 1630 & had we had 30 pounds on us we could have taken in an event. Site facilities are immaculate. This is being uploaded on the free WiFi. After rain last night the pitches still look fine. Take note of travel instructions if towing as the A 68 is not ideal for caravans. The location & scenery is splendid. A short walk down the road takes you to where the Pennine Way joins open country take wellies if going with the pooch as the start is boggy
