Where Roman roads meet wild open shores

Northumberland is England at its most unhurried: vast empty beaches, Roman walls, dramatic castles and some of the darkest skies on the continent. Walk the sands at Bamburgh with the castle above you, follow Hadrian's Wall across open moorland or explore the walled gardens at Alnwick. From the Cheviot Hills to the Northumberland Coast, this is a county that rewards those who take their time, and our holiday cottages in Northumberland give you every reason to.
