Tourist Attractions
- Wallington Hall:
Dating from 1688, Wallington was home to many generations of the Blackett and Trevelyan families - The Alnwick Garden:
Inspired idea by Her Grace, the Duchess of Northumberland. Now maturing into a fascinating day out for all the family. - Lindisfarne (Holy Island):
With its connection to early saints, this tidal island is the seat of early northern Christianity. Check tide times for a safe visit.
- The Farne Islands:
With their famous seal colony and fabulously rich variety of seabirds, the Farnes are well served with boat trips from Seahouses. - Hadrian’s Wall (The Roman Wall):
More a political statement then real means of defence, the famous wall extends almost coast-to-coast, but its most spectacular remains are along the northern hills of the Tyne valley. - Kielder Water Park & Forest Trail:
Kielder Water is the largest man-made lake in Europe, in the heart of the largest man-made forest inn Europe.
- Northumberland National Park:
A large portion of Northumberland lies within the National Park. Too much to mention is on offer. Visit their website. - The Theatre Royal, Newcastle:
The region’s premier theatre, featuring a mixed programme of high quality productions - Cragside House:
Cragside House, Gardens and Woodland is a truly unique visitor attraction in the heart of Northumberland, and was the first house in the world to be lit using hydroelectric power.
