A Coastal Escape Filled With Northumberland Charm: Discover Proctors Stead Caravan Park

If you love dramatic coastal scenery, historic castles, and peaceful countryside retreats, Proctors Stead Caravan Park offers a truly special location on the Northumberland Coast. Nestled just one mile from the sea and within strolling distance of Craster and the iconic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle, it’s a base where unforgettable holidays come naturally.

As a long-standing local, family-run park with a friendly community feel, Proctors Stead is an ideal choice for caravan and motorhome owners, and an exciting location for future static holiday home possibilities too. Ideal Caravans is delighted to support the park and help anyone dreaming of a lifestyle by the sea.
