Weekend Trip to Walkmill Campsite

I loved the campsite. The plots were very spacious and not at all crammed in, so there was lots of room for my toddler to run around in. The facilities were good as there was a static caravan with a kitchen, bathroom, toilet and even a couple of lounge areas, which would be useful if you got bad weather. It was so handy having the use of a hot water for washing up. I would definitely go back!

We loved tent camping at Walkmill, the site was beautifully maintained in a stunning location near the river. Plenty of wildlife to enjoy while sat around the fire pit - we saw a barn owl and hares during our two night stay. The pitches were well spaced out and the site shop had everything you might need in a pinch -we recommend bringing cash for the honesty box. The location is a 45min walk to Warkworth Castle and the coast/coastal path so there is plenty to keep you busy. We are looking forward to coming back!

David kindly welcomed us at very short notice, very friendly and accommodating, brilliant with comms. Have your choice of parking over two large fields, you'll be parking on a hillside, with wide open views for miles, perfectly orientated to watch the sunset on horizon. Levelling ramps recommended in some spots. - Fresh-water taps on site, along with clean portaloo(s) - Firepits and wood available for hire

Today the fortifications and countless castles are peaceful and the expanses of countryside they stand in are perfect for mountain biking, walking, cycling and, of course, camping. Kielder Forest Park and Northumberland National Park compete with the staggeringly beautiful heritage coast for visitors’ attention. Each offers plenty to see and do along with camping and glamping sites which embrace the scenic surroundings. We’ve hand-picked the very best of them for the Hipcamp collection.
