A lovely site - we pitched on grass area which added to the sense of being away from it. NB on our area of grass we need rock pegs for the awning. Trips to Lindisfarne and Farne Islands are a must as is a walk up the Hill forts from the Breamish Valley Country Park - We loved Alnwick (be sure to visit Barter Books) and Alnmouth .. The site includes some very nice walks around lake/pond and near river. Watch out for dogs and bicycles - every caravan seems to be running a dog walking service - and kids were on bikes on site a lot especially near the entrance - where they sometimes were quite vulnerable to manoeuvring caravans and motorhomes . A highly recommended site - but expect a drive out for shops or a meal out and come prepared
