Great site right on the England Coast Path but slightly away from the sea in case you expected a sea view! Very clean. Helpful, cheery welcome.

Glamping Cabin - Hill View Huts (Two Person)May 2025

Very lovely stay, staff were super friendly and helpful. Quiet times were enforced by staff, so noise wasn't an issue. We were able to get the local bus advertised in reception to local villages. Overall, would recommend. Thank you.

We loved our stay

Couldn't have asked for a better stay. The only thing that would have made it a tiny bit better was a football area for the kids but there was loads of beach for that. Everything else was absolutely perfect

Should have read the site reviews more closely before booking Budle Bay to be honest. The pitch (16), not the easiest to negotiate it was a bit tight for a VW T6 LWB. Toilet and shower facilities at the other end of the site, approx 3 to 5 minute walk from the pitch were reasonable, the showers were hot. There was toilet facilities available within 30 seconds of the pitch, but they get closed from around 8pm until 8am, not sure why as it didn't make any sense.

Great campsite

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Medium Hardstanding Pitches (Optional Electric)May 2025

Quite expensive but the location was perfect. The site has a great vibe and the facilities were clean. The pizza and coffee van are really great additions. Nice staff too, couldn't fault it.

Site's response

HI Jenna. Thanks for the very helpful review. Our hardworking staff put a lot of effort into providing a positive atmosphere on site greatly help by the wonderful guests who have read what we are all about here-friendly, peaceful, a good nights sleep- and want that from their stay. A quick word on prices. We are bang in the middle of everything in the Area of Outstanding Beauty, on the coastal area and in a beautiful valley. We are also one of the few local sites that has the full range of accommodation options (huts, pitches both grass and hardstanding, bunkhouse, lodges) with a range of pitch sizes to suit all budgets. Thus we have location and high demand.

The pitch we had for the camper with awning was fine, with hard standing and a maintained grass area large enough for the awning. The site was very busy, but check in was quick and easy. It's secure with keypad gate access and exit. The site had showers and toilets only but the showers were only luke warm at any time of the day. There is a coffee van by the entrance and a Pizza Hut a short walk away. The site is in a really good location for lots of places to visit nearby.

Small Tent - Standard Plus Grass Pitches (Optional Electric)May 2025

We had an excellent stay at the Budle Bay campsite. The tent pitch was a generous size, taking our tent and car easily, and the location along side the river was very welcome. The toilets and showers were very clean, and the water nice and hot, with good pressure in the showers. And good nights sleep were had as the campsite was very quiet.

Hi Ray, Thank you so much for your lovely review, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again! All the best, Katie @ Budle Bay Campsite

Lovely campsite

A lovely quiet campsite with some riverside pitches, with a mix of grass and hard standing. The staff were friendly and helpful. The site has fantastic views. It is close to the coastal walk to Bamburgh and the bus to Bamburgh and Seahouses.

Lovely site

Medium Tent - Medium Riverside Grass Pitches (Optional Electric)May 2025

Lovely quiet site, medium riverside pitch was big enough for our 5 man tent and car. Toilets and showers were clean as was the washing up station. Short drive to the places we wanted to visit (Bamburgh and Holy Island). Staff seemed nice.

Lovely, friendly site

Highly recommend a visit to this campsite. The staff went above and beyond to rectify a booking error, despite it being bank holiday weekend, they moved things around to ensure we had a great pitch. The facilities are good. Pizza, coffee and little shop gives you everything you need. We took an Uber into Bamburgh, 10 mins drive away. Will definitely visit again!

Great campsite, lovely staff

Glamping Cabin - River View (Two Bunk Beds)Apr 2025

We had a brilliant stay here. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and brilliant with the children too. Clean cabin with a kettle, fridge microwave and toaster and handy table inside and out and located within easy distance from the kitchen cabin and shower/ toilet block. Play park very handy for the kids and the campsite within 5-15 mins drive from Bamburgh, Seahouses and Budle Bay. Only downside is it's not the most picturesque of campsites but it didn't bother us, as we were so close to the beautiful Northumberland beaches.

Perfect location
