The venture between Northumberland Estates and local operators Coast and Castles will see the old RAF administration site at Boulmer turned into camping and caravanning facilities.
Once fully operational, the site will offer up to 80 pitches of which 46 will be for caravans and campervans for overnight stays. The remaining pitches will be for camping, plus a glamping option for those requiring a little extra luxury.
Hundreds of East London buildings still have unsafe cladding

Nearly four years after the tragedy of Grenfell, over 400 high rise buildings in Croydon, Hackney, Lewisham and Tower Hamlets are still affected by dangerous cladding.
Lockdown measures now mean that residents in the four Eastlondonlines Boroughs are trapped in unsafe housing.
The lingering cladding crisis in London also forces residents in high rise buildings to rely on expensive “waking watches” to give a warning if a fire breaks out.
Many across East London have not passed the ESW1 form either, a fire risk assessment for multi-storey buildings, rendering their property virtually worthless.
