Ord House Country Park

Lovely site but the bar staff let the site down. I have been a few times and heard them bitching about each other and also about customers.

Won’t be back.

What a fab place, only wish we could of stayed longer, great facilities although the restaurant & bar was closed on the night we stayed... berwick has a few drcent places to eat so we ate there before we got to ord house, Free Parking in berwick with amble room foirt our motorhome was a bonus too, can't wait to return ....

We live an hour up the road and chose here to try out the awning we bought for the caravan and do a shakedown for the season. We had stayed here before many years ago and were keen to see what had changed. It still is a fantastically clean site with great play park for kids. Touring pitches are mostly hard standing and its refreshing to see tourers near the Clubhouse not pushed to the back of the statics like allot of other sites. Good dog walk and plenty of room for the kids. The onsite bar and restaurant is lovely with entertainment at weekends. Food is decent pub grub and good portions and reasonable prices. Berwick is only 5 mins drive away, it is walk-able in 30 mins There was an onsite camping shop when we were there that was thinking of closing down. I hope it didn't as the staff were brilliant at helping me get the spares I needed for the season ahead. I got all the gas fittings for the Propane and awning spares that were missing. Staff at the Maguires reception were very helpfull

This is the second year running we have spent a week at Ord House with our tourer. Our 2 children love the site and within minutes have made new buddies; they love the freedom to go off and play and the space to play football. The site itself is beautifully kept, the grounds are immaculate. Hats off to,the grounds staff. Staff at reception are welcoming, you are provided with a useful and informative welcome pack. We opted to stay in the Orchard area. The pitches are fairly spacious, you have just room for your van, awning and car. The benefit to this area is that it is really sheltered, close enough to the play facilities but secluded from the rest of the tourer areas. TV reception is mixed and access to the free wifi provided on the site is pretty limited. Maguires, the club house on site, is pretty decent, friendly staff, the food is pretty good, reasonably priced. We ate there a couple of times, and although we were really lucky with the weather, on the odd occasion it was raining the family appreciated the pool area as a wet weather alternative to playing outdoors. What we did notice was a slight deterioration in the cleanliness of the toilet and shower block from last year. It's still "ok" given the volume of people who use it, but it is looking a bit tired. There was never any water in the mop and bucket so a few times we went for a shower and you could see that the cubicles had not been cleaned since they were last used. I suspect that this block will need upgraded before long.
On the whole though, this is a great site and we would happily return. There is loads to do in the area and if you get the weather then you have such a fantastic time.

Stopped in a wishbone pod at ord house country park in Northumberland and had a fantastic time. toilets very clean, staff very friendly especially vivinne the domestic cleaner. meals in the pub are gorgeous especially the 2 steaks for twenty pounds WOOW!!

Everything was to a very high standard and they definitely deserve the "the best green park award"

the play park is really good and the kids loved the soft play in the pub.

the walk around the park is absolutely beautiful as well.

well worth a visit definitely going again

An extremely enjoyable 3 nights at Ord House Country Park. Excellent facitlies especially for anyone with a disability, which both my husband and I have. The pitch was excellent with electric hook up and water supply and drain made life really simple. The staff were all very friendly and helpful in all departments. Superb chef preparing meals that were delightful and reasonably priced, waitresses and bar staff very friendly. Great walks for our 2 small dogs. The site was very well laid out and very clean. Shower and toilet block near to our pitch were spotless, showers were walk in suitable for older people and disabled people. Plenty play areas for children. Definitely going to become regular visitors to this site.

Fantastic site, staff and facilities.
Toilets were always spotless.
Staff were always helpful.
Site was always clean and tidy.
Pitches are good size and reasonably priced.

Would recommend this site to anyone.

we have visited this site alot in the past couple of years. it is a friendly welcoming site with everything you need. the toilet and shower blocks are spotless although the showers could do with updating (more powerfull). but the family bathrooms are fantastic when you have young children. all in all a great place to visit with a bar on site, a shop and food available for more stress free tea times. if i have to choose some negatives about this site it would be that it can get very busy in peak season so if you are wanting a more relaxed time this would not be our first choice. the t.v reception is poor but should be better in 2012 and although there are security cameras alot of the public come and go so not 100% safe and secure.

Myself and my family visited this site for a 10 day visit with our tourer, we found the park it self to be beautifully maintained with always someone somewhere working on tidying up the grassed or shrubbed area`s. Toilet facilities very clean and the added bonus of bath`s which our two young boys enjoyed.
The bar area was excellent for meals and the odd tipple while the location of the soft play allowed you to relax while still being able you keep an eye on the kids.
All staff around the park were extermely friendly and helpful and would take time to speak to you or answer any queries you may have from places to visit or even on the types of flowers and shrubs in the gardens.
Overall a 5 star service from a deserving 5 star park and would gladly recommend this site to anyone considering a break in the area.

We are a family with a 4 year old daughter, we've just returned from a very enjoyable weekend at Ord House. It was our first experienc e of camping and we picked a good site to try it out. The site is very clean and tidy, the toilet blocks are very clean with plenty of hot water and the staff are very helpful. Our pitch was right next to the playground, great during the day but difficult to get my daughter to sleep before 10pm! These this happen though. A five star campsite and well recommended.

Stayed at Ord House to try our tourer. This was an excellent first experience and a super park, so clean with brilliant toilet and shower block. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Will definately return.

My family and I started going to Ord in 2003 with an old tourer, we found the park to be very clean, with curteous friendly staff and are still there to date, having upgraded to a static van. Ord House is a family friendly site, the owners (Billy & Julie) are very nice as are the staff. the park is well kept and certainly deserves all of its awards, the washrooms are always kept spotless(thanks Viv), the clubhouse is fab (we frequent it regularly) and we have made many friends some of whom will be lifelong friends.
All in all a child friendly welcoming park well worth a visit or longer stay. I give this park a 5* rating but would like to give it 10.

Having visited Ord House on many occasions. The standards have always been superb, staff are very welcoming and friendly. pitches fully serviced with 16 amps and spacious and within easy reach of the facilities. The toilet facilities are spotless, warm and cater for all our requirements. Club serves great great meals and is very comfotable and friendly. All in all our stays at Ord have been excellent and we have met some wonderful people and would reccommend highly to anyone touring in the area.

A great welcome to a park of fine standing. Wishing all the best to the new owner and staff who must keep up the best tradition of the park to return again as we have for the last 15 years....

all the best!
