The Shiel

23/11/2024

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas here at The Shiel! Our elves have been decorating the cottage despite the cold weather.

We still have availability in the run up to Christmas and into the New Year if you’re looking to get away 🎄

I know we're biased, but we agree! Our nearest beach, just a short drive away.

With a big castle and even bigger beach, Bamburgh tops the annual Which? poll, followed by Dartmouth and Portstewart, while old favourites prop up the table

IT’S ALMOST TIME | It’s hard to believe this image was taken in March 2021.

In two years we’ve created a visitor experience and whisky distillery that celebrates and showcases the unique heritage of Northumberland and re-awakens the Northumbrian tradition for Whisky distilling that has slept for over 200 years.

We even have the Northern Lights without a trip to Scandinavia!

The Northern Lights put on an amazing show last night at Bamburgh……….

Around 10:45 the sky literally lit up - it was so strong you could see it clearly with the naked eye.
However a 10 second exposure with the camera really shows it's true potential.
