Castles & Heritage

Northumberland is famed for its dramatic castles and historic landmarks. Explore the iconic Bamburgh Castle, perched high above the coastline, or visit the atmospheric ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle, which overlook the sea beside one of the region’s finest golf courses. Inland, Alnwick Castle – made famous as a filming location for Harry Potter – and the grand Alnwick Gardens are must-see attractions.

Coastline & Outdoors

The Northumberland coast is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering miles of unspoilt beaches and wildlife. Take a boat trip to the Farne Islands to see puffins and grey seals, or enjoy a walk along Holy Island of Lindisfarne, accessible via a tidal causeway. For those who prefer countryside adventures, Kielder Water & Forest Park provides hiking, cycling, and some of the UK’s best stargazing.

Culture & History

Step back in time with a visit to Hadrian’s Wall, the Roman frontier stretching across the region, complete with forts, museums, and scenic walking routes. The historic market towns of Hexham and Morpeth offer a taste of traditional Northumberland life, while Berwick-upon-Tweed, with its Elizabethan walls and art galleries, blends heritage with culture.
