Why stay here ...

Embleton Bay Caravan Park is a small five berth site situated on Station Road Embleton, approximately 8 miles from the A1 and the historic market town of Alnwick.

The site boast stunning views across the rolling countryside towards the sea, with Dunstanburgh Castle to the south-east and the Cheviots to the west.

It is part of North Farm, a family run farm that has been in the Manners family for four generations. This secluded site is just over a mile from the AONB coast, where guests can enjoy mile after mile of unspoiled beaches. There is plenty of parking at either Newton by the Sea, Embleton or Dunstan Steads to walk to Embleton Bay.

There are some wonderful walks on public rights of way surrounding the site, for example Newton by the Sea, Newton Pool Nature Reserve, Dunstanburgh Castle, National Trust and English Heritage sites, Craster fishing village and Falloden Woods.

We provide a range of facilities for each of our caravan or motorhome berths, to ensure your stay with us is as pleasant and comfortable as possible. These include well spaced pitches with grassed area and hardstanding, electric hook up points and mains water. Dogs are welcome on site and all nearby beaches all year round. There are several local pubs (some serving food) and a great children's palypark in Embleton Village.

Fully serviced pitches well spaced hard standing

Embleton Bay Caravan Park

We stayed for 8 days here. We like to use our own facilities and prefer out of the way places so this CL suited us as the fully serviced pitches made life easier. There is a road behind the hedge with light traffic and some farm vehicles but it was quite during the night. We didnt expect a greeting and there was none but contact via email with the owners to book was good, and the owner called to confirm everything as there was an issue with something. There are envelopes and a letter box to post money into on a small kiosk presumably housing the electic fuses etc. We didnt see the owners but we were out most days. There is a walk marked on a map to the beach/pub (High Newton?) but we didnt work this out. The site is well laid out. The place is basically sitting in a field so I dont understand why the EHU terminals have lights on them, this is probably why the council is objecting to the hardstandings (they cant object about the CL itself.) as some houses across the field. It was very wet when we were there and the grass was a bit soggy. The hardstandings stayed dry. We had the place to ourselves for a few days midweek but was up to capacity at the weekend. Good location for lovely beaches and touring the area, Alnick (pronounced Annick, well I didnt know...), Seahouses Craster Beadnal and Bamburgh all easy reach. The Greys Inn pub in Embleton is a welcoming locals place with decent pub food. The host was friendly and they are very dog friendly. We left ours in the car as busy with a darts match and then the local football on the TV. We visited the Joiners Arms a few times. Its a "Gastro Pub" with a decent range on the menu. Again very dog friendly. Our neightbour told us the Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel was well worth a visit but we didnt. The Landing at Beadnall Bay was good for a dog friendly breakfast and coffee. Also visited Craster and Seahouses smokehouses for kippers. The Seahouses ones were the best overall and had a good range of other fresh and smoked fish. The Fish Shack in Amble was well worth a visit (with your dog). We had an issue with the car and can reccomend the local garage in Embleton.

Lovely site, nice location for walking to beach

Embleton Bay Caravan Park
Just stayed 3 nights at EBCL, great hardstanding for this time of year, water at pitch and good EHU. Other facilities are fine. Private track to beach takes 20 mins to walk but its a lovely walk and Embleton beach is fab. Local village has a great village shop and is only 5 minute walk away but I wouldnt walk it at night. Lots of local history and all in all a nice 3 day stay. Owner met us on arrival which was pleasant, site easy to find and only a short distance from main road.

Pleasant Stay

Embleton Bay Caravan Park
We stayed for 3 nights as part of our Northumberland Coastal adventure. Good clean site with ehu, grey waste, chemical waste and general rubbish bin. Would have like to have seen recycling rubbish facilities. 1.5 miles walk to the beach. Beautiful coastal walks to Craster and Beadnell. Would like to return.

Very good site. Some mix up with bookings as we arrived, but all sorted. Minor roads from the A1 easy to drive, and final road to site no problem (caravan). Good walk across fields to the beach. For longer walks north to Beadnell and south to Craster we parked in Embleton village on the road to the golf club and walked down the road to the beach, though it was possible to park at the golf club for £5 for the whole day. We will return.

Lovely peaceful site!! Highly recommended!! Great for families and for visiting local area!

Embleton Bay Caravan Park
We are currently staying on this site!! Fantastic site with our own tap. Lots of space for a small site with hard standing too. Found some reviews a little confusing....it is a single track road but it's a good sized one, as most of it you can pass another car. There is one bit of the road about 10 yards which is narrow heading into village but you then get to a pavement so no problem at all. Not a busy road at all. Very quiet at night. We walked to the beach which took us roughly 30 minutes at a steady pace. Called at Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel for a lovely drink on way back and the chippy van visits the village every Thurs evening 5-8pm. Very nice chips! Not at all bothered we weren't greeted at site. We just pulled on and set up. No one hassling us. Site owners kept in contact via email and replied promptly to any questions. Waste and rubbish facilities are great. Next time we will be bringing our bikes as cycle track in village to Craster! Was worried about taking our 12 Yr old on road to village but we've been on much narrower roads so no worries there!! Very chilled and relaxed site which we will definitely be returning to and recommending!!
