EXPLORE:
The spectactular Northumbrian coast has a wealth of things to do and places to visit. There is good reason why it was always called ‘England’s best kept secret’!
www.visitnorthumberland.com is a useful informative website.
Local walks
We are surrounded by wonderful award- winning beaches, many historic castles including Bamburgh, Alnwick, Dunstanburgh, Holy Island (check tide table!) Walkers and cyclists will find many routes including St Cuthberts Way, (which goes from Melrose to Holy Island), the Sandstone Way (for the more hardy cyclist) both of which use part of our track, and the National Cycle Route goes through Detchant.
Why not bring your walking boots and/or your bikes and explore the hills and surrounding area! The AONB and National Parks are not far, and worth exploring.
Towns
The towns of Alnwick, Berwick and Wooler are nearby, or head inland via Coldstream to the Border town of Kelso.
The Farne Islands can be reached by boat from Seahouses, and is a must for those who have never been there. Alnmouth, Amble, Craster (famous for the Craster Kippers) and Warkworth down southwards down the coast are lovely places to visit, with good places to eat.
