The Cheviots Challenge 2025
The 43rd Cheviots Challenge is organised to raise funds for the Northumberland National Park Mountain Rescue Team. A voluntary organisation whose members share a common interest in providing an important life saving service 24 hours a day 365 days of the year.
There are two routes available; the Terry Lynn Long Route and the Eileen Lynn short route. Terry and Eileen were both members of NNPMRT and for many years worked on the organising committee for the Cheviots Challenge Walk.
This year’s long route for the Cheviots Challenge has unfortunately had to be changed due to the ongoing impact of Storm Arwen on Northumberland’s forests. Last year’s route through the Uswayford forest past Davidson’s Linn and out onto Salter’s Road remains closed due to significant tree fall. Consequently we have not been able to include this section and the section over Bloodybush Edge towards Yarnspath Law in this year’s long route. We appreciate this will be disappointing for some and a relief for others! We hope to revert back to standard long route next year once the bridleway through the Uswayford forest has been re-opened.
The staff are always very friendly and go out of their way to help. My daughter loves Warren Mill and is always in the park playing before we start setting things up. It’s a lovely friendly site that I often recommend to people I know.
Excellent staff. Very welcoming! They keep a very close eye on all aspects of the park and take immediate action to attend to any problems which arise.
We love Waren, it is one of our favourite sites. We feel so at home there. It was the first ever site we went to, for our first trip out in our first touring caravan, for our daughter’s second birthday celebrations. It is a tradition now that we go every year for her birthday, and have just done it for the third year running. We love it so much. And long may it continue. Cant wait to try the sister sites, as she gets older. Brilliant site, lovely atmosphere, keep up the good work guys! Thankyou x
We stayed for 2 nights in a tent. Our children loved it! They loved the parks, the outdoor pools, football pitches and large grassed areas throughout to play games.
A really great park, fab shower and amenity block. We are new to the motorhome scene and this site has strengthened our commitment to our new freedom Thank you for a great site!!!
Absolutely lovely campsite, great atmosphere, felt really welcomed. Amazing views and great distance from local tourist attractions, will definitely be returning soon!
We absolutely love this place and will definitely return.
We love this park as the caravans are excellent and always well maintained and of course the Northumberland coast is beautiful.
We have stayed at this park many times and always return it’s a lovely clean well maintained park with super layout in the touring field for the kids playing on the field/park. Family shower rooms really really good and clean. We have also stayed at the other 3 parks you have but Waren is our favourite for a close to home weekend away! Thanks.
We have travelled all over the UK in our motor home. Waren Mill was one of the first sites we stayed at and has remained our favourite!
We very much enjoyed the campsite. The kitchen area for wigwam users was a great touch and made a huge difference to our dining options. All public areas well maintained and clean.
Our daughter loves coming to Warren mill and has great fun. The staff are always helpful and friendly and we’ve made lots of great memories and look forward to making lots more soon.
