Description

A 3 day holiday on the beautiful Northumberland Coast accompanied by a small group and local guide.

 

June 18th, 19th, 20th

 

Details of the walk days are below

Tuesday:  8/10 miles. Lindisfarne (Holy Island). Park at the causeway entrance and follow the Pilgrim’s Way to Lindisfarne. From there circle the island including exploring the land around the castle. Time for a drink before returning over the sands back to the car.

Wednesday: 5 miles. Alnmouth Circular. A shorter day giving the opportunity to explore Alnwick itself and the castle. The walk is a circular walk from Alnmouth which follows the River Aln from the estuary to Lesbury and back along the coast to the pituresque village of Alnmouth.

Thursday: 9 miles. Beadnell to Craster. A day spent on the coastal path and the sandy beaches. From the lovely church at Beadnell, head south to Low Newton, the vast sands of Embleton, Dunstanburgh Castle and in to the fishing village of Craster. We will arrange for a lift back to your car in Beadnell.

Although coastlines are never as flat as you imagine this makes for some of the easiest coastal walking. The mileage is not too great and and it is an opportunity to explore the history and beauty of the area with a local expert.

 

The market town of Alnwick is the best base for the walks with its many amenities.

For those who have never done so a visit to Alnwick Castle and Gardens should be added on either side of the itinerary.
