 Fantastic location just a short ride to the causeway to Holy Island, the views over the Island and to Banburgh castle and the Farne Islands are stunning. Which is probably why the pitch fee is on the high side (£36 a night).
Our pitch was a level concrete block, with EHU, with a grass area by its side if we needed to put an awning onto.
The site office is open between 9am & closes 5pm, although all of our dealings, booking, pitch allocation etc was done either on the phone or online.
The Men’s Toilets & Showers are tired and need a makeover, but showers are hot and both were clean, there is a new shower block for the ladies, but an older toilet block. There are two pot wash areas one outside the ladies toilet and two the other side of the building in the camping area.
Just off the camping area there is an independently run Restaurant and bar on site, but only opens 9 till 5. We had breakfast twice and drinks once whilst staying, breakfast was nice and hot.
Ignore sat nav instructions the campsite entrance is over the railway crossing, up the hill, as you start to descend there is a Sharpe right bend, the entrance is left on the bend, but it is well signposted.
I have marked customer service and site facilities down, because no-one is on site after 5pm and the gents facilities need a makeover. However the views are stunning and it is an ideal site to stop at if visiting Holy Island.

Cycled here after visiting Lindisfarne - this is the nearest campsite to Lindisfarne and only about a mile from the end of the causeway, and there's a good off road track for walkers and cyclists.
Small tent and 1 person, £18 per night.
New and spotlessly clean toilets and separate showers, with excellent hot water and powerful hair dryers. Small wash up area outside ladies loos.
Restaurant and bar on site - I only had breakfast before leaving but it was very good and nice hot coffee.
Location handy for English coastal path which I used for cycling back to Berwick upon Tweed (took about 2 hrs). I have no idea if you can get to the site by public transport but fine for bikes, walkers and private vehicles.
On a clear day, a good view out over the coast and Lindisfarne.
You get a bit of noise from the railway line but nothing annoying for me.
11 tent spots, well spaced out.

This was an unexpectedly lovely site. Based on a working farm and very well maintained pitches. These were proper hard standing pitches; made of concrete and perfectly level. Grass to the side for the awning. Amazing views over Holy Island and Bambirgh castle.
The coast path is easily accessible and it’s a fairly easy cycle ride over to Holy Island. One day we took the bus to Berwick; the sense of history was well worth it.
There’s a cafe on site; they close at 5pm but do very good evening meals on a Friday and Saturday night. There’s a bar on site, too. They open Wednesday - Saturday and serve takeaway fish and chips and burgers on a Wednesday and Thursday. We had fish and chips which was really good. Shame we had to have it as takeaway and that we couldn’t eat in the bar to enjoy with a nice pint (the Timothy Taylor was really very good). The Lindisfarne Inn is a 20 minute walk away (or 5 minute drive).
The ladies shower block is new and excellent, with very spacious cubicles. Gents showers a little tired and musty but clean and good hot water.
Based on other reviews, I wasn’t sure what to expect of this site. It was very very peaceful. And we thoroughly enjoyed it here and very much look forward to returning.

We had a pleasant stay. The people were very friendly. The food in the Cafe was good, and we were sorry, that they closed at 5 pm on weekdays.
The shower rooms are older and quite spartanic, the water this time too hot.
The nature around is beautiful for hiking and biking.

Showers a very cold Luke warm push button style. With a musty smell
Generally the facility block isn’t cleaned to a high standard
Unable to contact any one as coffee shop is closed
Overall site has good hard standing pitches A Motorhome drain off point and cold taps to refill fresh water.
Great location and view. The price charged isn’t cheap so you would expect showers to be hot. Especially as only three vans on site
--------
Site gave me a discount due to experiencing problems with the hot water in showers
Happy with outcome
Thank you

Lovely site but a bit pricy for what's there is here. £63 for 2 adults and a dog for 2 nights.
Bar not open and cafe/ restaurant limited opening with coffee and cakes.
Toilets clean. A little disappointed. Had planned to stay longer but chose not to because of cost.

Beautiful views across the bay to Lindisfarne and surrounding area. Spotless facilities on a code access. As previous reviewers have said, the hard standings are very close together and both nights we had neighbours who liked their radio on quite loud even at 7am.
Information about the area and where we could walk was sadly lacking. We had to take a chance and hope we weren’t trespassing when we walked down to the causeway and circled back up to the site.
The restaurant looked good but the menu was very limited and the bar is only open at weekends.
A beautiful, well cared for and presented site but lacking any personal touch. We had no contact with anyone throughout our stay. I know COVID restrictions are still in place but a word of welcome or a check to see if we were ok would have been appreciated especially as this was the most expensive site we stayed on during a two week trip which included Edinburgh.
Check in is 3pm which is much later than anywhere else we have stayed and we had to waste several hours before our arrival. Irritatingly, whilst we were there, other people were turning up from around 1pm.
I’m not sure we would go back but the views make it well worth a visit.

Quite an expensive pitch for £25 (plus £3 for the 2 dogs) but you do have a great location with views over to Lindisfarne & Bamburgh castle with chance of a spectacular sunrise.
We'd go back. Vans all get a concrete hard standing with grass to the side & all have hookup included in the cost whether you need it or not.
Facilities were spotless & on a keycode. Fresh water & waste disposal in the van area. It was mid week mid October & there was 1 tent & 12 vans on site.
No noise or rowdiness as mentioned in early reviews. Very peaceful. We had breakfast in the restaurant & it was excellent.
Covid-19 measures were exceptional, including a contactless temperature test on entry to the restaurant.

A lovely site, perfectly positioned for views of Holy Island & the coast. Lovely, adequate facilities & also a lovely Bistro too.
The site is small but lovely.
However it seriously needs a warden.
The curfew or quiet time is 11pm but drinking, noise, music and even a fire etc. Was going on into the early hours.
People with little or no regard for others.
I asked my female neighbour to please be quiet at 2am!
Only to be told to F++k Off!
Not good.
I did report this to the campsite managers the next day - as no-one is there at night, and they immediately blacklisted this poor excuse for a person.
However, if there was a warden or a manager present after hours / at night - this sort of thing would not occur.
Having said all the above - it is a lovely, perfectly positioned site with a lot to offer.
