During your stay we have included these great excursions:
- The Northumberland Heritage Coast. We call at the village of Seahouses, known as ‘the Gateway to the Farne Islands’. Then it is on to Bamburgh where the town’s imposing castle overlooks the North Sea from its rocky perch. Finally we visit Lindisfarne – the ‘Holy Island’. Only accessible at low tide this is where Christianity first took hold in Britain
- Alnwick Garden. Resurrected from dereliction by the Duchess of Northumberland just 10 years ago the garden is a fascinating place to explore throughout the year. Don’t miss the huge array of European plants in the ornamental garden and the rarities of the poison garden, (admission extra)
- A visit to the vibrant city of Newcastle with its striking architecture and great shopping
