Hexham Racecourse Caravan Site

The thunder of hooves may have faded, but the sweeping views across Northumberland's rolling countryside from this elevated racecourse site remain gloriously constant. Morning mist clings to the valley below as the scent of dew-damp grass rises with the sun, reminding you that you're camping somewhere genuinely different.

This no-frills site suits independent campers seeking an affordable base in the North East, perfectly positioned for exploring Hadrian's Wall, the wild Northumbrian coast, and the market town of Hexham itself. Tourers, campervans and tent campers find equal welcome on this unusual spot where racing heritage meets practical countryside camping. It's a world away from manicured commercial sites, offering something refreshingly unpretentious instead.

Basic facilities keep things simple with toilets and showers provided, while the campfire policy needs checking on arrival. Open year-round, it appeals to hardy campers who value location and atmosphere over luxury amenities. The vibe is quietly independent with an unmistakable sense of place – you're camping where champions once raced, under big Northumberland skies.
