Northumbrian Tent Camping Association
|
The association was founded in the mid seventies by
life long camping enthusiasts from many walks of life enjoying there hobbies in the
countryside with the Camping Club of Great Britain & Ireland.
The prosperity of the times saw an increase in the number of caravans owned by members who
could not afford to become members of the Caravan Club, because of the financial burden of
two extra wheels and one ton of baggage.

|
With sites requiring wide gates with tarmac access and a firm drive to their pitch with
room enough to keep a pony, the sites became large, un-secluded, obvious to the passing eye
and harder to find with the ever increasing number of caravans blocking the ground level
view from the entrance to the canvas abodes of the tent campers.
A rare fungal growth
|
Hence the foundation of our association twenty five years ago to continue the tent camping
tradition in it’s original form, the association grew to over five hundred members
from all walks of life throughout Britain, Scotland, Wales & Ireland.
The one thing that can be guaranteed, is a warm welcome whatever the weather,
this is a
tent camping club for all who enjoy the countryside and open air, whatever the age group
or particular interests with children welcome to continue this peaceful relaxing activity
well past the Millennium.
