by 1 Craster, a short journey from Alnwick, is a charming fishing village with a robust coast that breaks off waves and defeats the coastal walks. It is also a foodie joy. The funny fisherman (Thejollyfishermancraster.co.uk) is ideally placed to enjoy the view of the sea. In its airy conservatory in the back of the pub, you can put yourself in a fresh fish festival on the daily menu, including crabs, shrimp, moult fries, salmon and and shellfish cake. Outside the pub, you will notice an unmistakable smoky aroma that is not surprised because the business towards Lobson & Sons is the home of the tipper and has smoked fish in his location since 1856 and now grants the specified status of class 11-II.
2 The chances are good that a stay in Northumberland will contain rain when Bamburgh Castle (bamburghcastle.com) really comes for himself. Less crossed with tourists than Alnwick, it is also cheaper. With a view of an epic beach beach and over the sand dunes, this 900 old castle is located over 14 rooms, from medieval cuisine to the Victorian Kings Hall, together with a fascinating story from their Norman origin to the current family that lives there.
3 The idyllically pretty Warkworth Village is the perfect starting point for exploring the coast with a picturesque high street, Regency Cottages and a castle on the hill. It is also 15 minutes on foot to a breathtaking beach. Along this huge, sandy – and surprisingly empty – coast you will find the neighboring Alnmouth, another picturesque village with dunes and grassland with a view of the bay. Drive with your cozy tears and pubs to the Main Street; A local favorite is the Mahogany Tage Red Lion Inn, although the fresh crab sandwiches in Bistro 23 are also worth a detour (bistro23.co.uk).
4 For something less picturesque, more mysterious and more jensious, go to Holy Island. The journey across the dam is reason enough to visit – the narrow country strip that is immersed in the sea during the flood is flat, abandoned and scary. There is much more; The Lindis fern Priory from the 12th century, the epicenter of Christianity in the Anglo Saxon Times, and Lindis ferne Castle on a rocky plateau. Do not miss a pilgrim Gelato, part of the oat kitchen in the main street (Theoatkitchen.co.uk), with homemade vegan ice cream and sorbets, which are worth the regular queues.
5 Hadrian’s wall extends 73 miles to coast, from the Tyne river in the east to Solway Firth in the west. In the interior, Stahl’s Rigg near Sycamore Gap, offers some of the best views along the wall, including old Roman ruins and a glacial lake. For a treat at the end of your walk, the Inn (Toppyebrewedinn.co.uk) – your Sycamore Gap Pale Ale and Fishfinger -Sandwiches are strongly recommended.
6 Spend the night in the old stables, embedded in the curve of the Coquet River and right next to the Bukolian church of Warkworth. It is restored stylishly and converted with exposed brick and double height cuisine, which makes it a loft style. (The old stables (seven nights from £ 860, two bedrooms, sleeps four; sykescottages.co.uk.)
