Railway Inn Country Cottages and Caravan Park Reviews

Two night stay

Good location and straightforward welcome on arrival. Stayed on a serviced grass pitch which was fine. Was a bit concerned that a diesel generator is running 24x7 right by the entrance, but soon got used to this background noise. Site is directly next to the east coast mainline, so there is noise from passing trains, but was aware of this on booking so wasn't concerned. Cleanliness of the toilet/shower block was average at best. Having said that, there was warm water in the showers and it was better than some sites I have stayed at. Note, the pub is only open on certain days, so plan ahead.

A lovely situated site

The Railway Inn Country Cottages and Caravan Park is ideally situated to visit Alnwick and Amble fishing village, both places I would recommend. You could also use it as a base to visit Bamburgh and Alnmouth . Alnwick has the lovely castle and gardens whilst the town is full of independent shops, my favourite place being barter books in the old railway station in the town. Amble fishing village has a beautiful picturesque quayside, which the dog enjoyed walking along...the caravan site itself is small, quiet and peaceful. A train goes by occasionally, but not through the night and you do not notice. It has good sized pitches and a basic clean shower block and pot wash. For the facilities and time of year it is good value for money. This is a dog friendly site and although you can't walk the dog on site, there is a public highway over the road where I could walk the dog around the fields and through a woodland path, which he really enjoyed. The site is very good value for money and with a pub on site what more could you ask for. The owners are pleasant and welcoming and we will certainly visit again.

Great little site

Great site, with amazing access to seaside villages. Had just what we needed. A little on the basic side, but that is reflected in the price. Staff super friendly and helpful. Clean toilets, showers and washing up facilities. Would visit again.

A decent little spot

Site was clean and tidy, everyone was friendly. The pub doesn't open Monday and Tuesday I believe & I arrive late on Sunday so didn't get to try the food, but it looked great! Location pretty remote, so I would have some stuff handy for when you arrive.

Small campsite

Small campsite. Clean showers and toilets. Pub was closed during our stay Sunday - Tuesday. Nearest shop was amble about a 20 minute drive away. We took our own food so didn't bother us. No dog walk on site but I did find a nice walk across the road past farmer's field. We enjoyed our few days and would book again

Site's response

Thanks much appreciated.
