Warkworth Castle a mighty fortress crowning the hilltop above the village and the River Coquet. The great tower or keep is almost complete, though it was built by the first Earl of Northumberland over 600 years ago. Warkworth was besieged by the Scots in 1327 and played a key role in the long-running war between England and Scotland. There are spectacular river and coastal views from the castle walls. Just 10 minutes drive from Amble.

A visit to Wallington Hall and its beautiful Walled Garden. Mary Pool where we paused to hear trickling water in this tranquil space.
Throughout the garden we enjoyed waterways and ponds, woods and shrubberys, intricate borders and expanses of wild planting, intimate corners to sit and interesting nooks to explore.
The Walled Garden was the original kitchen garden for the estate and was converted to an ornamental garden last century.
At the bottom of the garden is the lower lawn and pond, a truly peaceful place.

When in Alnmouth take a walk up to Alnmouth Beacon on Bracken Hill. There are stunning views across Alnmouth Village Golf course, the river Aln estuary and along Alnmouth Bay. Just 15 minutes drive north of us at Amble. So beautiful 🤩

The beautiful sands of Budle Bay. We took a walk along the coastal path over Bamburgh Castle Golf Course. The view is magnificent with the Holy Island of Lindesfarne in the distance. We were treated to a skilful display by two kite-boarders surfing majestically over the waters.

Just a short drive from Amble or maybe a long walk to the historic village of Warkworth. Famous for its imposing ruined castle but also for its medieval fortified bridge. Once the only way to cross the river Coquet to the north. It dates from the late 14th century and is one of only two incorporating a fortified bridge tower, later a tollhouse, situated at the south end. It is only 11 feet wide and has pedestrian refuges built above the triangular cutwaters. There are two arches and the roadway is cobbled. The bridge is now only for use by pedestrians since the opening of the new bridge and it is Grade 2 listed. We hope that you like our photos.

A short trip to Alnmouth and it’s quaint harbour. Once a busy port but now strewn with small fishing boats and pleasure craft. Very colourful.
Be sure to visit “The Ferryman’s Hut” in Alnmouth harbour, the smallest museum in Northumberland. This bite-size bit of history was originally used by ferrymen when they would row passengers back and forth across the River Aln.

A 30 minute drive to the village of Embleton to enjoy a peaceful stroll through fields with amazing views of Dunstanburgh Castle. At Low Newton-by-the-Sea we had a quick drink at the Ship Inn before walking along the beach back to Embleton. Beautiful 🤩

A gentle walk from Whitley Bay with its famous Spanish City, north along the promenade with great views of St Mary’s Lighthouse. At the village of Seaton Sluice there are great views from the cliffs over Collywell Bay. The harbour at Seaton Sluice is a delight.

Just 5 minutes drive to Druridge Bay Country Park which has a visitor centre with information, toilets, a cafe and a gift shop. It has a series of smaller nature reserves within it. Then a walk on Druridge Bay, a living landscape, rich in wildlife. The bay is a stunning seven mile stretch of sand running from Amble to Cresswell and is a popular place to ride, cycle walk, paddle and surf. We enjoyed the sound of the surf and seabirds.

We took a walk along one of the most beautiful stretches of the Northumberland coast. So picturesque with high cliffs, small coves and tiny beaches. Starting at the village of Boulmer, which is just 20 minutes drive away, we headed north to the fishing village of Craster where we enjoyed crab sandwiches at the Jolly Fishman pub. Fabulous 🍺 😋

The Holy Island of Lindisfarne 🙂 After checking the tide times it’s less than an hour’s drive from Amble to this fascinating location dominated by its beautiful 16th century castle. A lovely walk around the island with its quaint harbour and the view of Bamburgh castle across the sea. We came across one beach with so many stone stacks. A wonderful day out.

We visited Cragside, a Victorian Tudor Revival country house owned by The National Trust. It is near the town of Rothbury about 35 minutes drive from “Hauxley Retreat”. It was the home of William Armstrong founder of the Armstrong Whitworth armaments firm. An industrial magnate, scientist, philanthropist and inventor. The house is fabulous and is set in a beautiful wooded estate. 🙂

This mighty Northumberland fortress, crowning the hilltop above the River Coquet and dominating the skyline over Warkworth village, is our nearest castle. There are spectacular river and coastal views from the castle walls. Less than 10 minutes from Hauxley Retreat this English Heritage owned castle is a great place to visit.
