Second visit and not disappointed

This site is basic in that there are no kids play areas, just pitches and the usual facilities ie toilets, shower rooms, laundry and washing up area. The site sits in the middle of a housing estate on a hill with the main railway line behind it: this can get noisy with trains passing a lot. The pitches were adequate for my small van but with a larger caravan and the need to reverse, if someone has the pitch in front it could be tricky. The toilets and showers are immaculate and spotless clean. A big plus point for me and my family. The site is well maintained with clean water and waste areas and plenty of bins and recycling areas. A short walk into Spittal and you can go onto the beach. A longer walk down by the docks and across the bridge, gets you into Berwick town. The town walls walk I can recommend, very interesting. Lovely basic site, very friendly staff. We would definitely return for a quiet break away.

Great views, some short pitches, no play area

Generally a nice site but a few things Pros: •The view! •Nice enough beach a quick walk away •Handy for exploring Northumberland •Site staff were great •I'd say it's more suited for people without young kids/with older kids/no kids Cons: •No children's play area (but there is a brilliant one on spittal promenade!) •Toilet block is a bit dated now •Some of the pitches are like, really short. If you've limited choice as it's busy and you've got a long caravan I'm not really sure what you'd do! Our pitch wasn't much more than maybe 8.2m long and our caravan is 7.9, it didn't leave much room between our hitch and the main site road, and that's with the van back as far as possible. Could do with roughly allocating pitches based on unit size as I can't drive round the site constantly unhitching and trying out the pitch for size. We struggled to get onto the pitch too as the road is so narrow and other units directly opposite. Even getting the car out required a bit of shuffling! We probably won't return for a while due to these reasons but that's not to say it's a bad site, it just wasn't for us.

Great site, great team but Berwick Upon Tweed was very disappointing

The site and most pitches offer fantastic views across the estuary and bay, stunning and lovely. The site team were very accommodating and the facilities are just as described 10/10. Unfortunately in front and behind are housing estates which are far from fantastic, and for us, spoilt the vista to a point. B-o-T was a huge disappointment and was clearly run down and appeared to be depraved from the mix of shops and mostly tracksuit hoody wearing shoppers. That said, the only menswear shop we saw was Sport Direct, which may explain all the tracksuits and hoodies! There are several sights worth seeing, as are the seals in the bay and on the beech, but B-o-T is nothing to behold and for that reason we would not revisit.

A lovely stay!

What a lovely site! Stayed here with our dog for a few days and enjoyed the peace and quiet! A nice tidy site with a hard working teem of staff. One of the days we were here was during a bit of a storm and watching the sea change from our caravan window was much nicer than being outside! Lovely views and a great location to walk down to the sea. Not far from Berwick Upon Tweed, we drove as our dog was elderly but it is in walking distance. It does have a train track behind it but after a while you don't really hear the trains. Thanks for a great stay!

Great view

We were amazed how the staff kept the toilet block clean, considering the appalling weather! Agree with previous review that the shellfish platter from Berwick Shellfish company is excellent, and a bargain. Handy having a M&S and a Go Outdoors so close as well. Loads to see and do in the area, site worth a visit. We were lucky with the train noise, there were no trains over the weekend we stayed, due to works on the line - bonus!

Unexpected little gem

We stayed here for 3 nights and the weather was horrendous for one of those nights but it really didn’t deter us from enjoying the lovely views and the friendly and welcoming vibe to this site. The staff were all lovely and worked hard to look after the site. We would definitely stay over here for a couple of nights here again. There is so much to see and do nearby. Holy Island, Bamburgh Castle, Alnwick. Locally the Spittal Food Store sells the most amazing freshly baked on the premises, steak pies, scotch pies, quiches, sausage rolls and bread rolls. The Berwick Shellfish Company on Dock Road also sells to the public and they do fantastic seafood platters.

Pro's & Con's

The positives for this site is it is close to Berwick-on--Tweed, over looks the village of spittal and has a lovely sea view. The pitches are well laid out and plenty of room either side of caravan. The staff were friendly and helpful, kept the site tidy and clean.only had one issue ( see non-positives) Good information hut. The non-positives:- Very close to train line, first train went through at 5.28am last one heard at 11.58pm, mixture of commuter, freight & engines covering about 5 every hour. It caused shaking of the caravan and disturbs sleep. Weekends are okay as alot quieter. The top road of the site running along the train line was not in the best of repair, few pot holes. There was only one light along the strip of road and the road humps were not visible when dark causing 2 falls in the week. Many fellow caravaners do not honour the 5mph rule which is not ideal when there are children/dogs. On arrival the MSP point is not in an ideal place, it is opposite the shower block and if a motorhome is using the facility no other traffic can get past as the road is not wide enough, resulting in queues at the busiest check in times. Had to ask for assistance from one of the wardens regarding Calor Gas Bottle refills as there was no info in the Information hut and the response was " No idea, if you find out please let me know". Not the response you expect. We did feel that 1 shower block for over 100 pitches was a bit poor, but they were kept very clean. We have stayed at ones with less pitches that have had at least 2 blocks. Overall we did enjoy our stay but would have prefered to have been more aware of the closeness to the busy train line.

Great location for visiting Berwick

Great site, as we love Berwick - and can walk In easily, across the old bridge. Great pubs/bars and great ‘factory’ fish shop just along from site - crab, lobster, smoked/unsmoked haddock - yum yum. Also great views of the sea, from almost every pitch - What more could you ask for of a site?

WONDERFUL SEA VIEW

This site is across the river Tweed from the town of Berwick in Spittal. The beach is close enough to enjoy a walk at the end of the day. The easy proximity to the A1 means easy touring with Edinburgh about 1 hour away and south you can enjoy Alnwick, Bamburgh and Holy Island. Facilities on site are excellent and with a Go Outdoors and Marks and Spencer food store with easy parking close by, this is a site to suit many folk.

Lovely well maintained site.

This was a beautiful site, we had a grass pitch at the end of the top field, which had plenty of space and grass around it. It is a walk into the town of Berwick upon Tweed about 1 mile but the walk is quite picturesque. The town itself is run down and we could only find one good restaurant which was The Leaping Salmon and that wasn't that good. It is such a shame because it could be a really pretty town with two bridges and old buildings. There were a few drinking pubs, but that was it, but that is nothing to do with the site. I would recommend the site, just to tour around the area.
