Bolam Lake Camping Paddock

About Bolam Lake Camping Paddock

Tucked beside the tranquil waters of Bolam Lake in rural Northumberland, this straightforward camping paddock offers twelve non-electric grass pitches for those after an unplugged escape. It's a proper back-to-basics setup—bring your own shower kit, as there aren't any on site—but you'll find clean toilets and drinking water, plus a genuinely warm welcome for dogs and families alike.

The lakeside location is the real draw: birdwatchers and walkers make good use of the nature reserve trails looping through ancient woodland, and it's a peaceful spot to watch the water at dusk. While facilities are fairly minimal, the pitch-up-and-explore vibe suits campers happy to trade creature comforts for countryside calm and easy access to wider Northumberland, with Newcastle just a half-hour drive when you fancy civilisation.
