Your Stay
Arrival
Once you book your stay you will be sent a booking confirmation and then a week before your stay arrival instructions and directions to the camping huts.
Check in is from 3pm -5pm at the Old School Gallery in Alnmouth village (self check in available after 5pm).
The huts are a twenty minute walk from the gallery along the coastal path. We advise that you bring what you can carry up the site. We can help transport bulkier or heavy items that are essential to your stay in our jeep anytime between 3pm -5pm.
You can hire electric bikes to get around from our good friends The Bike Shop Alnwick who will deliver the bikes ready for your arrival and also pick up on departure.
*Arriving in Winter 3pm - 4pm Check in.
In the winter months we advise arriving for check in while its light, the huts are a short walk along the coastal path and its a good idea to get your bearings for your stay in the daylight. If you are arriving when it’s dark please bring along torches and good walking boots/wellies the coastal path is unlit and can be muddy.
What's There?
Each hut has a double bed and a sofa bed. All bedding and towels are provided. There is an ensuite washroom and toilet.
A small shared beach shower block onsite, providing hot water for a morning shower at the camp open through spring and summer.
A heated shower room is available at our art gallery in the winter months.
You can cook a simple meal using a small two ring gas hob and wood burner hot plate. All cutlery, plates, pots and pans are provided. The huts are offgrid and power is supplied via solar panels that provided lighting and a usb charge. Please note there are no electrical sockets at the huts. Heating is provided by a woodturning stove. There is a coolbox outside each hut.
A small welcome pack will be there for you on arrival. You’ll also find a couple of board games, binoculars, and a small selection of books.
What to bring?
Remember these are offgrid camping huts! You are practically on the beach and away from modern technology.
The camping huts are well equipped with many home comforts so ideally you will only need to bring your clothes and food. Good walking shoes are essential as the site is accessed on foot, either along the coastal path or by the beach.
*Remember to travel light, the huts are a 20 min walk along the coastal path. We can transport bags for you on check in between 3pm -5pm only.
Children
The camping huts are ideal for two adults. For visitors with young children there is the option of a sofa bed that folds down to provide additional sleeping space.
There is an additional £10 per night for use of the sofa bed.
Each camping hut has a small wood burning stove. We would like to point out that if used and children are staying, the stove gets very hot and children must be supervised at all times when in use.
The campsite is very close to the sea, rocks and wild terrain so parents should be vigilant. The site also sits alongside a golf course and families should be wary of flying golf balls and not allow their children to play on the course.
Dogs
We believe dogs are part of the family and as such we have two dedicated huts (St Aidan & St Bede) that allows our furry friends and their respectful owners. Our housekeeping rules for the camping huts are simple in that we ask that you do not allow the dogs on the sofa or bed, that way we can keep it clean for everyone who stays.
We ask that dogs are kept on a lead at the site but the large sandy dog friendly beach is less than a minute away.
