    No idea what sort of site you want.  For a smaller place there is Long-bank Farm near Boulmer  beach -  or do you want a big holiday campsite instead?

    Hello and Welcome😁 Northumberland is motorhome heaven, you could try Embleton Farm Certificated Location (CL), or Brock Mill Farm CL. Then there’s Fowberry Farm, which is now a small private Site. If it has to be a Club Site, personally we ignore Seaview (trains thundering past every half hour) and head further North over border to lovely Yellowcraig, near North Berwick. Take a good look at the CL Sites section, and the Small Private Sites thread, lots to choose from, all different. Enjoy👍

    Have a look on the >UK Sites web site< and do a seach by map with the open all year filter enabled. There is one at Seahouses and another near Berwick.

    Enjoy your new motorhome.

    If it’s a CAMC site there is Berwick. It’s a nice site in a good location and the trains in our opinion are not really an issue, if there’s a good swell of a night, the noise of the surf  is louder.😂 Unfortunately it is very popular and only has limited availability when you require. Stayed recently at the other clubs Dunstan Hill, near Alnwick. A really nice site, about 15 / 20 minutes walk on footpaths from the beach.

    Waren Caravan Park near Bamburgh could fit the bill if you want somewhere with facilities.
