Berwick Seaview CMC Site, Berwick upon Tweed, TD15 1QU, Tel
To Find Site:- Approach Berwick from the southern end of the A1 bypass
exiting onto the A1167. In about 1.4 miles turn right at roundabout into
Billendean Terrace signed for Spittall. This road has some quite severe
traffic calming speed ramps so care is required. Continue under railway
bridge and watch out for the site entrance road about 300 metres on the
right. Please note no arrivals before 1.00pm.
Berwick Seaview whilst being in an urban environment has wonderful views
out over the Tweed Estuary and Berwick upon Tweed beyond. It is a long
narrow terraced site running alongside the East Coast main railway line.
The latter does cause some noise but it is only momentarily whilst a
train passes. The frequency does not seem excessive and for scale the
warden’s tractor makes more noise! There are in the region of a hundred
pitches all but a handful on gravel hardstandings, plus a few tent
pitches. If the site is busy it would be wise to discuss with reception
where the free pitches are because at the extremities of the site it is
difficult to turn, particularly with a car and caravan. Owners of
outfits over 8 metres longer are required to book directly with the site
as not all pitches can take long caravans/motorhomes. Electrical
connections are convenient to all pitches and use CEE17 blue connectors
rated at 16 amps. The site has only one toilet block which is of a good
standard but because of the site layout it is a long way from some
pitches. There are service points dotted around the site for fresh and
waste water, plus chemical disposal. There are two motorhome service
points both with open grill dump points. Reception sells a few
essentials and next door there is an information room. There is site
wide WiFi although best the check with reception as there is a map of
the best signal. I found using my 4G data to be perfectly satisfactory.
This site is ideal for visiting Berwick upon Tweed
which is only a short distance from the site. There is a half
hourly bus service from immediately outside the site. The rest of the
Northumberland coast is within easy reach. There is a nice walk down to
the Tweed estuary from the site.
For shopping there is an ASDA on the bus route into Berwick, and
for the fit even in walking distance, and
further out there is a Tesco and a Morrisons.
