Caravan parks in Hadrian’s Wall

·

The crumbling ruins of Hadrian's Wall are steeped in history. Stretching for 73 miles across northern England, from coast to coast, this ancient fortification once marked the northern frontier of the Roman Empire. Discover the legacy of the Wall as you explore long-abandoned forts, archaeological museums, and Roman towns, or seek out secluded spots far from the crowds. For the ultimate adventure, hike part of the 84-mile Hadrian's Wall Path national trail or cycle part of the 170-mile Hadrian's Cycleway. Campsites pepper the route, providing easy access to the hiking trail, along with highlights such as Birdoswald Roman Fort and Corbridge Roman Town.

Chopwell, England · 15 units · Tents, Motorhomes
Tyne View Camping is a peaceful spot in Tyne and Wear, not far from Hedley on the Hill village. It's on a farm run by David and his family, who welcome guests to enjoy the beautiful countryside views. You can see the Tyne Valley from the camping pitches, which is great for stargazing at night. The site is basic with just water taps and toilets, no showers, but there's lots of space for kids and dogs to play. You're allowed to bring a barbecue or firepit for cooking, and you can buy supplies in Prudhoe nearby. Or, you can walk to Hedley on the Hill for a meal at a top-notch pub. There are plenty of things to do nearby, like walking in the woods, playing golf, or trying gliding. You can also visit Hadrian’s Wall, Newcastle upon Tyne, or explore the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for a varied and enjoyable break.Also this June we will be open for the Sam Fender weekend ie June 12 til the 16th if anyone wants to camp £20 a night plus a taxi for £20

Hadrian’s Wall camping guide

When to go

Summer is peak season, and popular attractions such as Chesters Roman Fort and Housesteads Roman Fort can get busy. Book tickets in advance and make the most of free events and children's entertainment hosted throughout July and August. Hiking is best from May through October, but Northern England's weather is notoriously changeable, so come prepared. Parts of Hadrian's Wall are remote and rural, so access may be limited by weather conditions in winter.

Know before you go

  • There are multiple sites to view Hadrian's Wall throughout Northumberland, Cumbria, and Tyne and Wear, and they are all easily reached by car. A shuttle bus also runs between towns and attractions along the Hadrian's Wall Path between April and September.
  • Hadrian's Wall and most of its attractions are outdoors, so dress according to the weather and be prepared for sites to get muddy during wet periods. A raincoat or umbrella is recommended, even in summer. 
  • Wild camping is not permitted anywhere along the Hadrian's Wall Path, but there are campsites and caravan parks close to each section of the trail. 
  • Many sites are accessible for wheelchairs, but access to more remote areas is limited.
