Amazing find

Having stayed at this site 2 weeks ago I have thought long & hard whether to submit this my very 1st review, selfishly, in case it get too busy and I can’t return. This site far exceeded our expectation in every way. Having been to Northumberland many times before we looked for a different area to explore, and wow the Breamish Valley were Brandon Ford sits is absolutely stunning. Cameron although a very busy farmer (getting the hay in whilst we were there) made sure to make us very welcome. Jess was busy looking after their 7 wk old baby and we therefore decided not to trouble her for cakes from her Farmhouse Kitchen Bakery, next time though Jess. The site is well laid out with massive hard standing pitches with big grass spaces between vans. There were no ‘if only’ about this site, it was perfect, can’t wait to return.

A great site

Just back from a 3 week holiday but the highlight was our week stay at Brandon Ford. Cameron and Jess have put a lot of thought into this CL and it is excellent. As well as running the farm and with a new baby plus toddler they both found time to ensure visitors were welcomed and Jess's cakes were amazing. We would love to become regulars at this CL but unfortunately for us it is a long way from home.

Fantabulous site!

We booked this site March 2022 and we are glad we did, because it’s very popular and was full for most of our fourteen nights’ stay. The site is owned and ran by Cameron and Jess. We love fully serviced pitches! Makes life that much easier. Nicely laid out, large and level hardstanding pitches. Well drained and easy to knock awning pegs in to. While we were there a goody cupboard was fixed to the fence, full of homemade baking and preserves. There’s an honesty jar to pay for your goodies. Situated in a beautiful area, next to the river Breamish. Plenty of things to do and see. Castles. Churches. Stately homes, or any of the fantastic views in the area. Close to Alnwick for the supermarkets and a pleasant walk around the town. I could wax lyrical about the site, but always leave your audience wanting more! We are hoping to return in September 24.

Beautiful site in a fantastic location

Cameron and Jess run a finely tuned set up despite running the farm and a catering business alongside the CL their responsiveness and welcome was second to none. We have just spent 3 nights here and the CL itself is kept impeccably and the location for walking and cycling is second to none. We are a large motorhome (8.5m) and we will be back again to explore the area some more.

A repeat stay at Brandon Ford

We have just had another stay at Brandon Ford and again we are so impressed with the welcome from Jess and Cameron. The site is immaculate and the pitches dead level . A lovely place to stay and great walks all round. We will be back again.Thanks Martin and Norma

Splendid CL

Stayed 14 nights in June 2023 Great value , large and flat hard standing pitches. Quiet, with somewhere to take our pooch for a morning and last walk from the site (a particular problem with many country lane Cal's but not this one) If in the area again would have no hesitation to book again. Thanks Jess & Callum

A fantastic site

We spent 12 nights here and found it to be a delightful site, well situated, very well kept and with excellent facilities. Jess and Cameron are delightful hosts . They even took in a parcel for us at the farmhouse (spare part for our awning) and delivered it to the caravan. So useful to have a continuous water supply and grey waste drainage too. We would really recommend this site to everyone.

Achieving 'perfect pitch'.

This CL location is set in the beautiful Breamish Valley and is a perfect base for touring Northumberland, especially around the National Park, and the coast is readily accessible. There is a nature reserve just on the other side of the bridge, and great dog walking in the area. The Scottish Borders are less than an hour away, so visits to Jedburgh and Kelso are recommended. We got a warm welcome from Cameron (and his young son!) who came over to see that we were settled in OK. The pitches are generously sized and are fully serviced, so no trudging over the site with an Aquaroll in tow! We found Brandon Ford after having to change our plans at very short notice and we're glad we did. Jess and Cameron have obviously put a lot of work into this site and we have added it to our personal list of favourites. We will be looking forward to coming back again. As a bonus, Brandon Ford is right on the edge of the Northumberland International Dark Sky Park and boasts the darkest skies in England, which for stargazers like me is a real treat and offers an unrivalled opportunity for astrophotography, even if the one thing no-one can control is the weather. It's a perfect excuse for going back, though!

Great value, great site

There’s only one downside to this site - no toilet, but we knew that, we have our own facilities and this is a fabulous little site. Friendly owners, who come abd introduce themselves to make sure you’re settled in and happy, but that’s it, no more “bothering”. Great walks from the site and our dog loved it all. Will certainly return.
