Worst site I’ve ever been on…..

The noisiest site I’ve ever stayed on, main east coast train line is about 20ft from the back of your caravan if your unlucky enough to pitch up on one of the top ones, that’s was all that was left when we arrived, trains hurtling by at 125mph just feet from your caravan, 1st one at 6.15 am last one 11.30pm every 10mins duration , site very poorly set out, on a steep hill, lots of dead ends that it you go into to initially to find a pitch you have to reverse out off, pitches very short, resulting in the narrowest access roads I’ve seen on a site…. Definitely won’t be back here

Fabulous, we will return

A short drive from the River Breamish site saw us pitched up at the Berwick Seaview site, the third stop on our tour. Our pitch, 89, had views of the lighthouse, and a large area of grass in front of us. During our stay we both walked (15/20 minutes) and caught the bus (stop at site entrance) in and out of Berwick, soaking up the history, and enjoying meals out. We also walked down to Spittal beach, which was a leisurely 5 minutes. The Wardens were very friendly and helpful. We loved it at this site, and will definitely return.

Trains and Boats

Spent 3 nights as part of our Northumbria tour in July. Very easy to find as very close to the A1 and other main routes. Site is accessed via a steep, though short, drive (be aware if you have a long over-hang beyond your rear axle- we witnessed several caravans grounding as they started to make the climb up to reception). We generally do not comment upon the wardens as we feel this is not helpful; however in this instance it was refreshing to be greeted by a younger couple with enthusiasm, who were chatty and helpful throughout our stay. There are some biodiversity 'no mow' zones sensible placed around the site creating the natural habitat. This is the correct balance unlike Teeside Barnard Castle who seem to be leaving wide expanses of 'no mow' zones everywhere; this makes the site look untidy and unkempt. Site is terraced, therefore most pitches are afforded an ever changing view across the North Sea and the Estuary, or in the other direction, towards the town/railway viaduct. Yes, the site is bordered by the East Coast Main Line and we enjoyed seeing and hearing the trains go by, but can appreciate this may be an annoyance to others. They do cease overnight and the railway certainly did not disturb our stay or sleep. There is a bus stop at the site entrance which takes you into Berwick town (day rover was £3.00 per adult, no charge for the dog) or to Spittal in the opposite direction. Nearer to the site there are a couple of pubs, a small convenience shop in Spittal and a walk along the green at the seafront takes you to a chinese restaurant and other eateries. You can walk into town from the site - 30 minutes at an easy pace. A walk to the seafront is approx 5 minutes and further along at Spittal there are sandy beaches, where dogs are allowed, plus a cafe/ice cream outlet. Overall, we enjoyed out stay and hope to return.

Great Welcome To A Great Site. Everywhere was Clean & Tidy. All Staff Were Very Friendly & Polite At All Times.

We visited this site on 4th July 2022. Nicola, Simon and Christian were always very polite and willing to help - nothing was too much trouble for any of them. We were given a great pitch which gave us a great view overlooking Berwick Upon Tweed and the Lighthouse. The on-site facilities were very clean and everything seemed to be spacious and very very clean. The site was well presented and was very clean and tidy everywhere. Berwick was a great town with great people who were always willing to talk and help. Thank you for the great holiday and hopefully we will be back..... Take care everyone - Bill & Jan

Fantastic Site and Location

First time in Berwick upon Tweed. Loved the site, on arrival greeted by friendly staff. Very organised, great pitches with fantastic sea views, easy access to beaches for the dogs. Nice quiet site. Great base to explore the surrounding area. Definitely recommend, we will be going back next year.

friendly site with good facilities in a great place

Very friendly welcoming site with good facilities. We had a big grass pitch and very nice views towards the estuary. It's about a mile down hill to walk into Berwick Upon Tweed which has loads of pubs and restaurants. Nearby beaches are lovely and there are lots of walks to do from the site. There are shops nearby - a short walk, including M and S food and Morrisons so shopping was easy. Loos etc nice and clean, everything well organised. Great part of the country. We were right by the train track side of the site but there is a big bank in between and the trains didn't disturb us at all.

We absolutely loved this site.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this site. It is an excellent location, we were able to go out for nice walks in the evening to the beach or around the immediate area. There is so much of interest in this part of the country to explore during the day. We loved the views from our caravan across the heritage buildings and out to sea. We live in the quiet Suffolk countryside and were not bothered at all by the trains. The noise passes in seconds and not once did we get woken in the night by a train, no problems whatsoever. This was our first visit and we can't wait to go back again.

Not for us

Not our cup of tea at all, the pitches are too tightly packed in, and most people say it has a lovely view, well if you can ignore the tops of rows of houses before the water then I suppose so. The trains are noisy and although they stopped for the evening, if you want to read in the afternoon I counted 9 trains in an hour, at one point 8 minutes between some. We chose this site as a base to go to Bamburgh and Rosslyn chapel, now I wish we had stayed nearer to Rosslyn. A nice promenade walk nearby but we won't be going back.

We love Berwick Seaview

We’ve stayed here before and fell in love with this site. It has lots of character and even though the trains pass by frequently you’ll be amazed how quickly you get used to them. The beach is a short walk from the site and there’s pathway too if you’d prefer to walk on a hard surface. Berwick is close by and and is a lovely little shopping area. I must thank site manager Simon Congreve for his care and assistance when we had an upset through my dog being attacked by a loose dog on site. I needed to visit the infirmary too and my dog a vet. Simon insisted I go as initially I wasn’t going to but it turns out I did need to. He went above and beyond in looking after us and I also had a nice chat with Christian who is the other male warden who was very sympathetic. I never did get a chance to talk to the ladies but these two gentlemen are a credit to the club. Hope to see you again in September

A site with a view!

This was our second visit to the site and the first since the Pandemic. We had been put off visiting previously due to some reviews regarding train noise and location. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but when we first visited the site we extended our visit and would have been happy to have done so again. Need I say more. True, the main railway line does run behind the site but in our experience they stop running overnight and we were exploring the area during the day so no issue for us. The view from most pitches are great overlooking the river Tweed to Berwick town itself. Spittal where the site is situated, is a quiet town with mixed housing with a good promenade ideal for a quick dog walk. Was very quiet when we were there despite being mid June and covering a weekend. The pub the Albion looks a bit shabby on the outside but friendly staff ,good beer and live music was available. Walks to and around Berwick easy with the town about 20 minutes away. Good walk around the town walls and not to strenuous and you can also walk up the river on the Berwick side. Facilities on the site are as usual spotless for CC sites. There is no kids play area and possibly not great for riding bikes but the beach is close by. We don't normally leave reviews but feel as others have commented don't be out off and give it a try yourselves. If you like walking it's a good place to visit. As you'll gather we will be back.
