Relax & Rewind Holidays

11/07/2026

☁️💚 The skies may be a little greyer today, but after the heat we've had over the last week, it's actually quite a welcome change here in Northumberland!

Days like this are perfect for pulling on a light jacket, heading out for a coastal walk, exploring Berwick's independent shops, or simply sitting back and enjoying the peaceful views. The coast has a beauty all of its own, whatever the weather. 🌊

It's wonderful to see so many of you choosing to spend your holidays with us this year. We're now fully booked until 21st August 🎉

If you're still hoping for a seaside escape in 2026, September and October are booking up quickly, so now is a great time to get your dates secured. Autumn on the Northumberland coast is something truly special, with quieter beaches, crisp mornings, and stunning sunsets.

📩 Send us a message to check availability - we'd love to welcome you for a relaxing coastal getaway.

☀️🏖️ Still thinking about a summer getaway?

If you've left your summer holiday planning until the last minute, don't worry – there's still time to enjoy a relaxing break on the beautiful Northumberland coast! 🌊

We have just a handful of dates remaining this summer:

📅 One weekend left in July
📅 Limited availability in late August

Whether you're looking for family time by the sea, long beach walks with the dog, exploring Berwick-upon-Tweed, or simply a chance to unwind and recharge, our cosy caravan is the perfect base for your escape.

With summer availability now extremely limited, these remaining dates won't be around for long.

Amazing weather today up at Berwick-Upon-Tweed with the sunshining but enough of a breeze to allow a steady walk from Coronation park to our fav cafe and then round the ramparts, before nipping to the shops and back to the caravan.

Have you done any of the local walks when visiting?

If you are a Steam train enthusiast and in Berwick-Upon-Tweed this Saturday there will be the Edinburgh Flyer travelling from York to Edinburgh and back.

There is plans for it to stop in Berwick-upon-tweed on both its northbound (around 11am) and southbound (around 7pm) journey's, so you should be able to see it along the train line if interested.

First day back of the season and some beautiful.sun even with the clouds 🌞😍

Things nobody tells you about Berwick-upon-Tweed:

1. It's changed hands between England and Scotland 13 times. The town has serious identity issues.

2. The football team plays in the Scottish league despite being in England. Because why not add to the confusion.

3. The Elizabethan walls are the most complete in Europe. You can walk the entire circuit.

4. The salmon fishing here used to be the best in Britain.

5. Three magnificent bridges cross the Tweed - OId Bridge (1624), Royal Border Bridge (1850), & Royal Tweed Bridge (1928).

6. L.S. Lowry spent his holidays here for 28 years. You can see why.

It's not a big town. But it's got proper character and a fascinating history.

Plus, you know, stunning coastline and empty beaches.

What's your favourite bit of random local history? 👇

Caravan holidays are not just for families/groups, they can be for couples as well!

Here's a plan for couples who want to spend time together:
📍 Northumberland coast
🌅 Sunrise beach walk (just the two of you)
☕ Lazy breakfast in your pyjamas
🚶 Afternoon exploring Berwick
🍷 After dinner drinks on the decking watching the sunset
🔥 Evening by the fire with no distractions

No ticking clocks.
No outside noise.
No world beyond the decking.

Just... actual time together.

Pre-season prep checklist (what happens that first weekend in March):

The park's been closed all winter for maintenance. I can't access the caravan until 1st March when Haven reopens.

So that first weekend, here's what happens:

✅ Deep clean EVERYTHING (not a quick wipe - proper deep clean)
✅ Check all appliances work & PAT testing done (oven, microwave, fridge, heating)
✅ Replace any missing kitchen items
✅ Change the seasonal decor
✅ Clean windows inside and out
✅ Scrub decking and outdoor furniture
✅ Check every lightbulb (new hallway lights this year to install)
✅ Stock welcome essentials

This is what happens before you arrive. Every. Single. Season.

Because when you walk through that door, it should feel like nobody's ever stayed there before.

Clean. Fresh. Ready.

What's your biggest expectation when you arrive at holiday accommodation? 👇

15/02/2026

Right, here's what's happening...

First full long weekend of March (5th - 8th March), I'll be up at the caravan for the first time since November to get everything prepped and ready for our first guests.

Deep clean. Stocking essentials. Testing everything works. Making sure it's absolutely spotless for our first guests.

And I've got a question for you...

Is there anything you'd like to see?

Behind-the-scenes cleaning? Kitchen setup? Bedroom tour? Local area updates? What the caravan looks like after winter?

I'll be taking photos and videos throughout the weekend, so let me know what you'd actually find useful to see.

Drop your requests below 👇

P.S. Interest for summer is properly building now. July's nearly full and August is filling fast. If you're still thinking about it... maybe stop thinking and actually book for just £50 today! 😅

✨ So much happening in Berwick this year ✨

The lovely team at Visit Berwick Upon Tweed have shared a great round-up of the festivals and events taking place in Berwick throughout the year - from arts and culture to music, history and community celebrations. There really is something going on in every season.

If you’ve ever been thinking about timing a trip to Berwick around a particular event (or just enjoying the buzz while you’re here), it’s a great way to plan a break. We still have some availability across the year, including early-season dates. 🌊🏡

Berwick always has a special atmosphere when events are on and it’s lovely being able to relax back at the caravan at the end of the day.
