Midges: Whilst Kielder hosts a good deal of adorable wildlife, be aware that the midge population of Kielder are now fully awake and are in residence. Please plan accordingly. Along with the local shop, we stock repellent, head-nets and candles.

The work on our access road bridge has been completed. We no longer have a diversion in place, you can approach Kielder from the South once again.

 We no longer allow open fires on site. This includes fire-bowls and is non negotiable.  We have BBQ stands dotted around the site which are perfect for disposable BBQ’s or putting your own charcoal in. Camping gas stoves, trangias and Cob cookers are fine. 

We strongly advise you to view the Kielder Tavern FB page as we have no control over the establishments opening or serving times.   We envisage that on quiet days through the week they may only open from 5.00pm.  Click on the link to view: Facebook: Kielder Tavern        

    Kielder General Store opens on aThursday through to a Sunday. They do not have long opening hours, make yourself aware of their opening times. FB page link below. KIELDER GENERAL STORE IS CLOSED MONDAY THROUGH TO WEDNESDAY. Please plan accordingly.

Some of our local wildlife pictured can prowl and pilfer at night, we strongly advise guests not to leave certain items outside overnight. particularly food, shoes and bags. [No need to remove large non edible items such as chairs.....to date we know that the badger set or foxes lair can't get furniture inside]  We'll update should planning permission be sought.
