Whitton Glebe Caravan Park: Peaceful Country Living in the Heart of Northumberland
Tucked away on the southern slopes of the Coquet Valley, overlooking the charming village of Rothbury, Whitton Glebe Caravan Park is one of Northumberland’s most tranquil countryside retreats.
Family-run since 1962, this long-established park has remained true to its roots — offering a warm welcome, breathtaking views, and a genuine sense of community. For anyone searching for static caravans for sale in Northumberland, Whitton Glebe captures everything that makes rural life so special.
A Family-Run Park with a Long History
Founded by Mary and George Mackenzie over 60 years ago and still proudly family-managed today, Whitton Glebe Caravan Park has grown into one of the most respected parks in the region.
Set across 12 acres of peaceful countryside, the park features just 100 pitches, giving owners more open space than most parks of its kind. It’s a setting that feels private yet connected — just a short walk from Rothbury’s shops, cafés, and restaurants.
Open from March to October, the park provides the perfect seasonal base to enjoy spring sunshine, long summer days, and golden autumn evenings in the heart of rural Northumberland.
Countryside Comfort and Coastal Convenience
Whitton Glebe offers the best of both worlds — a peaceful countryside retreat that’s also within easy reach of Northumberland’s spectacular coastline and national parks.
Located just outside Rothbury, often called the “Gateway to the Coquet Valley,” it’s the ideal base for exploring the wider region. You can enjoy local walks straight from your caravan or venture out to discover Northumberland’s treasures:
-
Cragside House and Gardens – the historic home of Lord Armstrong.
-
The Simonside and Cheviot Hills – perfect for walkers and photographers.
-
Alnwick Castle and The Alnwick Garden – a short scenic drive away.
-
Bamburgh Castle and the Northumberland Coast AONB – for seaside days out.
-
Kielder Water and Forest Park – for stargazing, cycling, and outdoor adventure.
Whether you’re walking, climbing, or simply relaxing by the river, every day at Whitton Glebe brings a new way to enjoy Northumberland’s great outdoors.

The park’s peaceful setting and spacious layout create the perfect environment to unwind — no touring caravans or tents, just well-maintained static holiday homes set in manicured surroundings.

Explore, Relax, and Belong
From ancient woodland walks to riverside cycling trails and wildlife watching, this area is rich in natural beauty. Red squirrels, deer, and countless bird species are a common sight, while the nearby River Coquet and surrounding fells offer endless opportunities for exploration.
After a day outdoors, you can unwind in one of Rothbury’s local pubs or simply enjoy the sunset from your own veranda. It’s easy to see why so many owners return to Whitton Glebe year after year — it’s more than a park, it’s a way of life.
