With more castles than any other county in England, Northumberland is a land where history and wild nature collide. From the windswept ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle to the ancient Roman frontier of Hadrian’s Wall, this northern outpost offers a sense of solitude and scale that is hard to find anywhere else in the UK.
Our Northumberland adventures take you along the dramatic Northumberland Coast Path, where vast sandy beaches meet medieval fortresses and the wildlife-rich Farne Islands. Whether you are exploring the ‘Holy Island’ of Lindisfarne, wandering through the quiet valleys of the Northumberland National Park, or stargazing in its famous Dark Sky Park, our personal guides reveal the most breathtaking coastal walks and historic sites in this rugged border county
