Why visit Northumberland?
You’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to places to explore in Northumberland. Walk along wild Bamburgh beach gazing up at England’s finest coastal castle, hike the rugged trails of Northumberland National Park or visit the puffins on Holy Island.
After dark, the vast pristine skies come into their own with some of the best stargazing in the country. The celestial wonders are best viewed through the telescopes at beautiful Kielder Observatory which runs events throughout the year. Northumberland is also a culinary treasure trove with everything from Michelin-starred seafood restaurants along the coast, to cosy candle-lit inns and traditional tea rooms.
