Now is the right time to visit Northumberland and fall in love

Luxury Beach Holidays from Berwick to Amble we are surrounded by Natural Beauty...

We are incredibly fortunate that our positioning on the Northumberland Coastline is an area of outstanding natural beauty. Spanning over 30 miles from Berwick Upon Tweed down to the beautiful Amble Town. The outstanding landscape is distinctive in its character and rightly so; a protected gem. 

With stretches of untouched beaches, tranquil country getaways, rolling hills, picturesque islands, phenomenal scenery, wildlife and history; this incredible area is a wonder to explore. 👍

Visitors from all walks of life

Our dog friendly hotel attracts visitors from far and wide to experience the landscape and to escape from the hustle and bustle of their busy lives. The opportunity to don your best walking shoes and step out of the front door into a picturesque landscape fills us with immense pride. 

The image to the right has been taken from one of our most popular rooms The Longstone and Big Harcar with Bamburgh Castle on the horizon. (7-minute car Journey or a 59-minute coastal walk)

Just over the horizon is the wonderous Holy Island of Lindisfarne, English Heritage tidal island oozing with history and magnificent picture opportunities. You can follow in the footsteps of the ancient monks across the fast flowing causeway to the Priory built over 14000 years ago. 

Stay SAFE at all times and always pre plan your visit to avoid getting becoming stranded! 

Safe crossing times here 🙋

Don't forget to visit Pilgrims Coffee  in between sightseeing. It is a top recommendation by ourselves and our much loves guests. If you are a coffee connoisseur their island roasted batch is sure to invigorate your taste buds.

Of course, let's not forget our hometown of Seahouses which bodes phenomenal views and fantastic places to eat drink and explore. 

A recommended favourite is the cruises across to the Farne Islands (only 3 miles out). These jaunts are run by a couple of local "skippers" allowing residents and visitors the opportunity to sail out to the island for an unforgettable wildlife experience. Allowing you to get up close and personal with some of the thousands of seabirds and seals that seasonally visit here. The odd dolphin has been known to show it's fins too!

Not sure where to visit first?

Footsteps in Northumberland is a fantastic business headed up by married couple Patrick and Louise. Trained in delivering wonderful walks around the region they have a selection of perfectly planned guided walks for you to join. Some of which include the popular Pilgrims Way or the Bamburgh & Budle Walk.

"We'll be walking in the footsteps of the Saints and early Christians along the ancient Pilgrim’s Way, the traditional route to Lindisfarne, which has been in use for at least 1500 years. If you're feeling brave and it's a nice warm day, then walking barefoot, the traditional way of walking this route, then you are more than welcome to take your socks and shoes off and feel the mud and sand between your toes. There should be plenty of seals, 'hauled out' on the sandbars and we'll probably hear them calling or 'singing' before we see them as we make our way across to Lindisfarne. There will be a few early migrant birds, particularly waders arriving from the Arctic breeding grounds, so we'll be looking out for those too. Once on the Island, we have coffee and cake and then we'll be exploring and discovering some of its wilder corners before walking back to the mainland again on the Pilgrim’s Way." 

"We begin this walk in the village of Bamburgh beneath the walls of its iconic castle and head north along the wilder side of Bamburgh Beach. Stopping off at Harkess Lighthouse and the famous Stag Rock, we’re soon heading for Budle Bay, an important part of the Lindisfarne National Nature Reserve. Hidden amongst the dunes is a World War II gun battery, huge and unmoving it’s one of a number of remaining defensive features that litter the coast. On the shore itself is the last of the quays from the days when this was a working port, sad and neglected, it’s slowly returning to the sea. If the tide allows, we stay on the shore, otherwise, we have to take an inland path before heading over and through the nearby farmland and back to Bamburgh. There are some great views along the way and in the village, some fine tea shops and pubs to relax in and share the memories of a great Footsteps walk." - quote taken directly from Footsteps In Northumberland
