Dunstanburgh Castle, it's about a mile walk to the castle along Embleton Beach and round the castle.
Cycled up there a few times and camped/fished there and it's superb.

Dunstan Hill
 
nice little site at chathill just outside beadnell just next to train station, a used t use the one on the main road in the farm between seahouses and beadnell but think its gone camping and caravan members only, also a couple cany1s around the craster area, try here its got all the info you will need to find the sites you want UKCampsite.co.uk Towsure 2011 Advent Calendar if you planing any trips up there gis a shout a spend a bit of time on bike fishing up there during summer always have a good time
 
Aye the Mull of Galloway is the place to go if you want to catch fish on float and spinners/lures. You can "wild camp" there at East Tarbet but there are no facilities - no water/bogs.

A better bet is to camp at the Clashwhannon caravan park in Drummore.

Not sure what Martin charges a night £5/6 but at least you have bogs and a shower and water there and a good pub on site.

We have a static caravan there and stay there for most of the summer so if you want any more info just shout up.

West coast of scotland, firth of clyde. Little bays south of portavadie, low stillaig. Wild camping. Just get a wash in the sea. Catch it on a hot summer day and its like the carribean, blue crystal clear water and golden beaches ;)

Sound of bute and isle of Arron oppisite, Great place to be. ;)
 
If you go over to the Mull of Galloway (3.5 hour drive from Whitley bay) be prepared for the unexpected. Check out me with a tope on which took my mackerel spinner !!!!! It bust me off after 1.5 hours. A passing angler kindly took this photo for me

Strange old sport we dabble with mate. Just shows no two tides the same :)
 
Got a tope once at Auchenlarie Caravan Park. Was ledgering with spinning gear using sandeel. My target was doggies and thornies. Got a tope about 12lbs and what a scrap. Hooked it right in the corner of the mouth.

You just never know what willo turn up over there. My pal tried to foulhook a thresher off the flat rock !!!
