Holidays in Northumberland

Welcome to England’s northernmost county, occupying an area brimming with history. Northumberland holidays have peace and quiet at their heart, with the county also being the country’s most sparsely populated. It’s won awards for its credentials, being voted the best UK county to visit at the 2018 British Travel Awards. Guests head on a Northumberland caravan holiday as a base for adventure and exploration. You’ll find serene stretches of coastline all to yourself, tying in with some of the most unspoilt countryside you’ve ever seen.

Our two Northumberland holiday parks welcome guests with open arms. Berwick sits by the sea on the English-Scottish border and Haggerston Castle is home to the remnants of the structure itself. Fancy bringing your dog? Check out our dog friendly holidays to Northumberland.

Northumberland National Park covers a quarter of the whole county, stretching from the Scottish border. Visit Kielder Water and Forest Park, the largest man-made lake in northern Europe. It's teeming with wildlife, outdoor activities and events. Or take a bit of a detour to Hadrian's Wall – this landmark of Roman Britain is truly legendary.

For film fans, it might well be obligatory to visit Alnwick Castle. Best known as Hogwarts in the first two Harry Potter films, it also starred in big movies like Elizabeth and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, not to mention a guest role in TV's Downton Abbey. Then if that's whetted your appetite for stately homes, Bamburgh Castle and Berwick Barracks are waiting for you.
