https://dev.contours.co.uk/northumberland-coast-highlights
A self-guided walking holiday along the coast of Northumberland, visiting the Holy Island of Lindisfarne.
From £310 per person
The Northumberland Coastal Path tours wild, unspoilt countryside, where long beaches of golden sand are presided over by castle ruins looming on the headlands.
This gentle, low-level walk arcs inland once – to sample glorious views of the coast from St Cuthbert’s Cave – but otherwise clings to the Northumbrian shoreline. Castles adorn the rocky headlands and, at low tide, you can make your way across a tidal causeway to Holy Island to explore the extensive ruins of Lindisfarne Priory. With plenty of beach walking between bustling seaside towns, this is a pretty, approachable, and friendly coastline walk.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
From £385 per person
This walk along the first half of the Northumberland Coast Path allows you to immerse yourself in spectacular coastal views between some of the country’s largest and most impressive fortresses.
This walk takes in miles of golden, sandy beaches, abundant birdlife and friendly fishing villages: Craster in particular is well worth a visit, particularly if you wish to sample its famous oak-smoked kippers!
