River Breamish Club Campsite in Alnwick is set amid the Cheviot Hills, with excellent walking and cycling in the scenically beautiful surroundings to keep the active holiday maker happy. Walk from the campsite into the delightful Breamish Valley where many remains from the Neolithic and Bronze Age, including hill forts and medieval villages can be seen. It is an easy walk into the quaint little village of Powburn.
The National Park Centre at Ingram is a short journey away from the River Breamish Club Campsite, which is open daily from Easter to September. Staff there will be more than happy to help you plan your stay, making sure you get the most out of this historic area. Ingram boasts a number of fine hillside walks - take a picnic along with you and enjoy the rolling green hills and countryside spread out before you. If you enjoy bird watching and nature, then be sure to visit the Branton Nature Reserve which has a bird hide and lake nearby and Farne Islands, off the Northumberland coast. Fly fishing is available at Chatton and Thrunton Long Crag, and course fishing can be enjoyed at Felton Fence Farm.
The stunning surrounding scenery and beaches can be enjoyed from many of our Northumberland campsites, including the long sandy beaches and castle at Bamburgh, are on the doorstep. The location for the Harry Potter films, Alnwick Castle, is a must-see attraction. For a really unique experience, book a reservation to have dinner in the Castle's treetop restaurant. This campsite is sure to offer something special for everyone in the family.

Perfect site for our first caravan holiday
We chose Breamish after reading previous reviews. The cheery welcome from site staff upon arrival relaxed us straight away. Facilities are perfect. Pitch was great. Being newbies we had help from our fellow caravaners. Lots to do in the surrounding area - Alnwick is great. We will return to Breamish.... Show more

Lovely site and think the best shower block on the network. Peaceful and wardens are lovely. Could do with bins at the bottom end of the site, not sure why bins have been removed from the service areas but it’s quite a hike down to the entrance... Show more
