Fabulous Site

Bolam West Houses Farm
Just spent a very peaceful 10 nights at this lovely CL. John met us on arrival and was extremely friendly and helpful with local knowledge and advice. The fresh eggs and the sausages went down very well too. The site is peaceful and scenic with excellent walking opportunities for dogs. Nearby Bolam Country park was within easy walking distance and the site is well located for exploring Northumberland’s coast and countryside. We will certainly be back.

Wonderful few days at this tranquil site

Bolam West Houses Farm
A lovely few days spent at this beautiful, peaceful site. Very clean and well kept. The farm was easy to find and the roads leading up to it were wide enough to tow a 8ft van - we travelled through Whalton vs the smaller back roads. Upon arrival we were welcomed by John, who showed us where everything was and advised on best area to pitch - as it was quite wet underfoot. The ground was a little uneven, but to be expected for a grass pitch. There was plenty of space between us and the other vans which made it very easy to pitch up. Would highly recommend the Beresford Arms in Whalton, the food was excellent.

Beautiful, clean, picturesque site.

Bolam West Houses Farm
A very quiet and peaceful site with adequate space for all. Lots to see and do locally. Pleasant dog walk two minutes away along a bridlepath and lots of areas around to explore with dogs. Highly recommend this site and friendly owner. Site has easy access to tap and waste. Priced reasonably in view of current ridiculously high energy costs. Worth every penny.

Pleasant site but over-priced

Bolam West Houses Farm
This is a nice basic CL on a quiet road with easy access and friendly reception. However, I think it is over-priced at £25, considering it has just the one tap and a waste emptying area in the middle of the field with no fence round it. I would have no criticism of the site if I was paying £17 - £20.
