Welcome to Tranwell Farm

Small, 'North East Tourism 'GOLD' Award winning, Sustainable, Self Catering, Camping and Glamping Holidays on our Family Farm in the heart of the Northumbrian Countryside.

"A haven to unwind amidst the breathtaking Northumbrian Countryside."

  "A space to rest your weary feet after a day of exploring."

"A place that reconnects you with the rhythms of nature."


Tranwell Farm is two miles from the historic Market town of Morpeth and within easy walking distance of a lovely country pub. Our dog-friendly, sustainable off-grid site, is surrounded by wildlife and caters for families and couples who are looking for a quiet base from which to explore all that Northumberland has to offer.
 

Northumberland is one of the most sparsely populated counties in England. It's an area of outstanding natural beauty and amazing dark skies. Dramatic coastlines, miles of sandy beaches, rolling hills and majestic castles all waiting to be explored. 
 

The Historic market town of Morpeth is located in the heart of  Northumberland at the gateway to the National park combining history and heritage.  It is an ideal base to explore both the coast & countryside. Morpeth is a lovely market town with a beautiful walk through arcade shopping centre and lots of craft/artisan shops and fabulous restaurants and tea rooms.   You can take a stroll along the river Wansbeck or Carlisle Park on to the gatehouse and the ruins of the Castle. Try your hand at river boating, tennis or bowls.  Marvel at the Turner Garden inspired by the father of English Botany William Turner who was born and educated in Morpeth.  Peruse Morpeth’s regular Wednesday market or learn about Northumbrian Bagpipes in the Bagpipe Museum.  Then choose something to remember your visit by at The Chantry Northumbrian Arts and Craft Gallery.


Just 15 minutes drive to the South of Morpeth you can take in the arts and culture of Newcastle City Centre. Or step back in time and visit the Roman forts amongst the dramatic windswept countryside of Hadrian’s Wall. Walk the Cheviots and stop off in Rothbury for tea. Explore Cragside the first house in the world to be lit by hydroelectricity.  Have a day out in Alnwick to see Harry Potter’s Castle and the famous Alnwick gardens.  Or Discover the heritage of Northumberlands past with a visit to the Woodhorn Museum or Wallington Hall. Whatever you decide to do we know you will find lots to keep you busy whilst you stay here.
