Herding Hill Farm

Herding Hill Farm is an AA Platinum 5 Pennant and Visit England 5-star touring, camping & glamping site close to Hadrian's Wall. We are blessed with rural views, beautiful sunsets and dark Northumberland skies. As a dog friendly Northumberland campsite we welcome dogs free of charge on our tent and touring pitches and operate a small cleaning charge per stay in our dog friendly glamping pods. Our touring pitches are spacious, with hedge markers between each pitch and there is a sturdy dog ring on each for securing your precious animal. We are installing a hot dog wash and have a wonderful scenic dog walk where animals can be safely exercised on and off the lead. Open all year. Quiet site policy after 10.30pm.

Herding Hill Farm is just 1 mile from Hadrian’s Wall with a huge variety of walks going West towards Walltown Quarry and Birdoswald Roman Fort and East to Steel Rigg, Housesteads and beyond. The AD122 Hadrian’s Wall bus stops at the campsite entrance (between Apr and Oct) and is dog friendly and provides easy access to all the attractions along the wall between Hexham and Haltwhistle.

Herding Hill Farm is open all year round. As well as tourers and campers we have a range of glamping pods to suit all budgets, from our Wigwam cabins, some of which have en-suite toilet and hot tub through to our luxury Castle Pods which have everything you need for the most amazing of glamping experiences including fire pits, BBQ, amazing views and private outdoor hot tub. We have dog friendly accommodation in all types of glamping pod. We also have a Luxury Lodge with 3 bedrooms and outdoor hot tub.
