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 £615 per person
This holiday option explores the length of the Northumberland Coast Path along 72 miles of incredible terrain, from the town of Creswell up to Berwick-upon-Tweed near the Scottish border.
Walk along golden beaches beneath ruined castles towering on the headlands. The Northumberland Coast Path tours a wild, unspoilt region full of history, winding northwards and showcasing everything this lesser-known trail has to offer.

“Overall we were very pleased. Since we'd never been to Britain before, and were worried about losing our way, we bought a handheld GPS and downloaded your files. They were very helpful. We have friends who are interested, and now that we're back, we plan to encourage them to book too! Our bucket list is long, but we hope to make it back to the UK and would love to do another walking holiday.”Mrs Sampson, USA
“A year late because of covid, but worth the wait. We have recommended you to some friends coming over from NZ next year (maybe), they followed our Northumberland walk online and fell in love with the land and seascapes.”Mr Cairns, UK
