About the site
A rural farm stay with stunning views over Tyne Valley and surrounding countryside. Boasting a great location to explore nearby walks around the North Pennines and Kielder Forest Park is just a half hours drive away. The spacious and level camping field offers 27 non electric grass pitches. Each unallocated so you can turn up and choose a spot to suit you. There are also six grass pitches which each have electric hook up, suitable for tents, motorhomes and campervans. For something a little cosier the site is home to three furnished bell tents - sleeping up to four with a double bed and a sofa bed. You can travel light as each is equipped with all you need including gas and electricity, wood burning stove, kettle and plenty of cooking equipment. Outside each has a seating area with a fire pit. Dogs are more than welcome but please do keep them on leads as there is livestock on the farm. BBQs and campfires are permitted.

Fantastic place to relax. Loads of space to spread out to pitch but also for the kids to play about making up their own games and playing football etc. Toilets are spotless. Susan, the host was just so lovely.

Excellent site in a good location with plenty of flat-ish pitches. Site owner was lovely, very approachable and keen to ensure everyone had a good stay. Area is very quiet from early evening onwards but you're only 5-10 mins from local pubs, shops etc. The only negative is that the facilities are very limited. If you have your own (camper / caravan) that's not a problem or if, like us, you visit in a quiet mid-week, it's fine. However, this would be an inconvenience at busy times and something to be aware of.
