Why stay here ...

Chillingham Barns Caravan Site sits in the Heart of the North Northumberland countryside. Set on a farm between the rolling Cheviot Hills and breathtaking Northumbrian coast, it is rural, tranquil and peaceful.

Our site is a flat and spacious lawned area with easy, wide access, electric hook up and ample space for awnings. Adults, children and pets are welcome, and we have a short woodland path that all our visitors are more then welcome to use.

Chillingham Barns, although rural, is in easy reach of local amenities – Chatton village with a local pub and shop is approximately a mile away, and Wooler and Belford both six miles away. The area is popular with hill, moor and coastal walkers with the site itself a mile from the iron age hill fort of Ros Castle and Chatton Sandyford moor beyond, well known for its many public footpaths and historic Neolithic cup and ring carvings and stunning scenery.

The site is also perfectly situated to explore the local attractions. The historic market town of Alnwick, The Alnwick Garden and Castle are nearby as is the coast with its many castles such as Bamburgh, Dunstanburgh and Warkworth to name but a few. The Holy island of Lindisfarne is also a popular spot with visitors not far away. There are also coasteering, kayaking and windsurfing activities run throughout the summer on the coast. Closer to home, Chillingham Castle and the famous wild cattle park is also only five minute walk from our site, and Chatton Fishery a couple of miles down the road. We are also near to Rothbury and the Northumberland National Park, thirty minutes drive from the Scottish Borders and within an hour of the UNESCO World Heritage site of Hadrian’s Wall.

So if you are after a peaceful getaway or a base to adventure and explore Northumberland, Chillingham Barns is your ideal spot.

a quiet getaway

Chillingham Barns
We stayed a week at this quiet site where on a night the only sound was the owl. and we loved it. The field was well spaced out between caravans 4 with lovely views the other one was further back in the field, still with views of the hills and a hard standing. The facility area was clean and easily accessible. The Information hut contained lots of local information as well as books and DVDs if wanted. Plenty of places within driving distance to visit, such as Alwick where there is a castle, garden and a massive bookshop with cafe in an old railway station, nice on a rainy day.

Lovely peaceful site

Chillingham Barns
We stayed here for the August bank holiday weekend. The site was well maintained set in a very quiet area, ample room for 5 units. Fresh eggs and preserves available on site. Great site to discover the beautiful places in Northumberland.

Nice surprise

Chillingham Barns
We were worried about access and arriving at this site but shouldn’t have been, it was very simple. Nicely kept site. No facilities but didn’t matter we used our own. Ami very friendly and willing to chat. Downside was contract machinery speeding past the site practically all day and particularly very early morning which wasn’t a pleasant wake up call when your on holiday. Lovely jams, chutneys etc in info hut, sadly never saw any eggs. Great pub in the village which is about a steady half hour walk but seems longer coming back after a few drinks!

A peaceful gem

Chillingham Barns
We spent almost a week here with our son, wife and 7 year old. It was just perfect. There's a big grassy field with plenty of space to give privacy. The water and waste corner was immaculate. There was a small shed with masses of information about the surrounding area, not to mention fresh eggs ( in season ) lovely jams and chutneys with an honesty box. The small woodland walk adjacent to the site was lovely and very popular with our grandson and Ami's 2 young sons. You know when you meet someone and think ... if I lived nearby we could be friends .... that was Ami! She was unobtrusive, helpful if needed and so friendly. The site is well situated for so many interesting places to explore and we shall most definitely be back! Thank you Ami! William is already planning his next visit ... just a tad far from Bangkok !!
