Derwent Park Caravan and Camping Site is a compact, friendly base located mere 15-minutes' from the amenities and attractions of lively Newcastle. Despite the site's proximity to the buzzing city, the settings around the campsite are nothing short of stunning, comprising of leafy woodland and rolling countryside, cut by shimmering lakes and streams flowing toward the ocean. Sit back and marvel at the soothing natural beauty from your roomy grass or hardstanding plot with optional electricity, and enjoy the relaxed pace of rural living. Amenities on the premises are updated regularly and consist of the standard toilet block, hot showers, pot washing area, laundry room and drinking water points. The father and son team have thoughtfully included designated wheelchair-friendly features, enabling guests from all walks of life the freedom to escape the smog-filled cities for green open space, fresh air, and the freedom to explore or unwind at will. There are plenty of attractions outside the gates or within easy reach, including Hadrian's Wall, Gibside Chaple, Beamish Museum, Raby Castle, Otterburn Mill, and more. Outdoor pursuits like walking, fly fishing, crazy golf, tennis, basketball, football, and bowls are available nearby. There is a well-stocked shop on the premises, and well-behaved pets are most welcome to stay.
