Located inside the wild and beautiful landscape of Northumberland National Park, Bellingham Club Site gives campers an incredible connection to the great outdoors and an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Perfect for a tranquil getaway or an active walking and cycling break, Bellingham is a real hidden gem.

 

Conveniently located

Catering for camping units of all types with both grass and hardstanding pitches, this level campsite also has a children’s play area, indoor recreation room, kitchen, and clothes drying area. A leisurely 20-minute stroll that crosses the River North Tyne brings you to Bellingham village, where countless pubs, cafes, and shops can be found. So, despite a peaceful, remote location, you’re still not too far from civilisation should you need it.

 

Forests and forts

A short drive east will bring you to Kielder Forest, where you’ll find one of England’s largest mountain bike trail networks, lovely lakeside walks, the chance to spot wildlife such as Ospreys, and some of the darkest skies in the country for stargazing. For history fans, Bellingham is located just a 30-minute drive from some of the most impressive stretches of Hadrian’s Wall, including Housesteads and Vindolanda Roman forts.
Looking for a camping break that puts you in the heart of the great outdoors? Look no further than booking a pitch at Bellingham Club Site.
