Excellent in every respect

This was our first foray into touring. This site is everything we could wish for: An friendly welcome, large pitch, a quiet location, exceptionally clean facilities, loads of information about the surrounding area, a pub 20 minutes walk away and good fish & chips on Thursday evening. There's a shop at the end of the road and a local bus service as well.

Lovely site

We are currently staying at River Breamish and can say it is a lovely site with loads of wild life. The geese flying over the site making a wonderful sound early in the morning and then again in the evening is great. One thing we would like to see is parents encouraging their children to ride their bikes and scooters in the same direction as the traffic on the site.  As seems to be the norm on most sites we've visited drivers seem completely unable to abide by the 5mph rule on site, whether this is ignorance or bloody mindedness I don't know but non of us can assume that little children out and about on their bikes are fully aware of the dangers of cars/motor homes etc. and the last thing we would like to see is anyone hurt. As I've said this is a recurring problem on all sites and I know the wardens try very hard to address this problem but maybe it's come time for people to be asked to leave if they can't abide by this simple rule. It's not much to ask!

Peaceful overnight stop

This was an overnight stop on our way home from a holiday in Scotland. We had stayed here before for longer. The site is in a very secluded location. It is a mature site and is very well maintained by the wardens. The welcome was friendly. Pitches are generous in size and the general feel was one of peace and tranquillity. There is a nature walk around the land adjacent to the site. We were there on a Thursday when a Fish and Chip van calls. Site and Fish and Chips are highly recommended.

One of our favourite sites

We come to River Breamish every year as it is convenient for walking in the Cheviots. We love this site. There are new wardens this year but they are maintaining the high standards and the toilet/shower block is immaculate. There is a very good shop at the local petrol station which sells a good selection of frozen "home cooked" style meals. Alnwick is half an hour away for Sainsbury's, Morrisons etc. The fish and chip van on a Monday is very popular and well worth queuing for. The RAF seems to practice low flying overhead very frequently but this did not cause us any problems. Also, as it is sited on a lovely nature reserve there is a lot of wildlife, including flocks of geese who honk noisily in the early hours of the morning. We mainly explore the local countryside inland but the coast with excellent beaches is not far away. We usually travel further afield to near Berwick on Tweed to eat out at a fantastic pub called the Plough at Allerdean and can also recommend the Tankerville Arms at Eglingham. Unusually for a CC site there is a small tent area on this site which proved useful when our daughter came to stay for a few days. We love the peace and quiet and location of River Breamish and will definitely be back.

Excellent as usual

Return trip to this site and once again impeccably maintained with a great shower block and friendly wardens. Well laid out, spacious and quiet. The local pub (The Plough, 20min walk) serves epic food portions and they're very friendly but for me its become a bit "quantity over quality". If you want to leave the car behind you can get the 473 bus from outside the pub into Alnwick in about 25mins. The local garage has a Londis store so if you forget anything you can get most things in there.

Great site

We had heard reviews about this site before we even got here from people we were talking to on our previous campsite and we were not dissapointed. quiet, friendly and wow what a shower block, one of the best ive seen on a campsite yet. the people staying here seemed to be so friendly and often took time out just to stand and chat, the site sort of puts you in the mood to just chill. There is a pub about a mile away and the food there was great, there's also a shop at the garage which is very well stocked. We had a great time and met some lovely folk.

Great Place To Stay

Just had a great week at this site,the site itself was quiet and clean and the staff were fantastic and friendly. The sad part was it rained from Sun to Wed but that did not stop us from having a great time. Will be booking to go again in the very near future. Still have loads of nearby places to see.

Lovely Site!

Loved this quiet, clean site and loved the area! Excellent toilet/shower/laundry block and very helpful wardens.  I personally prefer a site with some kind of security gates, but otherwise it is perfect!

A favourite stop!

A great site with peace an quiet at a maximum! The wardens may have changed but the welcome and the standards have not changed! (This is a good thing!) Every time we visit this site there are new things to explore this time some of the attractions at Ford and Etal the corn mill powered by water and the light railway. There are plenty of coffee shops and bistros in the neighbourhood.
