Northumberland is known for its white sandy beaches, historic castles and unspoiled countryside. With a growing reputation as a year-round tourist destination, this area attracts visitors looking for peace, outdoor activities and coastline adventures, making it the ideal setting for a hospitality business.

Doxford Farm Camping is a truly exceptional lifestyle business just minutes from Northumberland’s breathtaking beaches and the vibrant, historic town of Alnwick. Set in around two acres and surrounded by peaceful countryside, this is a unique opportunity to purchase a thriving luxury glamping business. There is also a charming three-bedroom cottage which is available to purchase by separate negotiation. This would offer the perfect setup for an owner or manager seeking a balance of income, lifestyle, adventure and a wonderful place to live.

The Site
This is glamping at its finest, with huge potential to grow. The business comprises five high-specification glamping pods, each one thoughtfully designed and perfectly placed to offer guests privacy and views. Underfloor heating, well-equipped kitchens, sleek bathrooms, and private decked terraces create a boutique hotel feel in the heart of nature. Whether it’s couples seeking a romantic hideaway or families looking for their next adventure, the accommodation delivers style, comfort, and a true sense of escape. Families will love the space and thoughtful touches like bunk beds for the kids. Couples can relax in their romantic retreats, featuring a freestanding bathtub in the bedroom, and one has a private hot tub for that extra indulgence under the stars.

The site also includes pitches for four bell tents and seven caravan pitches with electric hook-ups. For campers, there are three modern shower rooms and washing-up facilities – all maintained to a high standard. With planning scope for three additional pods, there’s exciting potential to increase revenue and grow the business.

With many wedding venues in the area, such as Doxford Barns, Doxford Hall, Charlton Hall, Newton Hall and Embleton Hall, there is considerable opportunity to provide accommodation for wedding guests.
