Northumberland is home to historical sites to take you back through time and vast landscapes to explore. Countless Northumberland castles jostle for attention - ‘proper’ castles with battlements and portcullises, ghostly ruins guarding endless sandy beaches, and ones that echo with ancient footsteps. There is a plethora of things to do in Northumberland for history fans, hikers, and romantics alike, from ambling along the Northumberland coast to walking in the county’s endless countryside. A visit to history-rich and beautiful Lindisfarne Island, cut off twice daily from the rest of the world by fast-moving tides, is an adventure not to miss. At night, turn your gaze upwards to see millions of stars pinpricking the famed dark skies in Northumberland’s National Park.
