Trace the ancient pilgrimage from Holy Island to the Shrine of Saint Cuthbert in Durham Cathedral and enjoy the magnificent bells peeling and Boys Choir at Evensong.
Northumberland boasts two Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty waiting to be discovered, the Northumberland Coast with its golden sand beaches and awesome castles (you could go horse riding in the surf at Bambururgh beach), and the North Pennines with its heather covered hills and extraordinary wildlife - and a bird watchers paradise.
Take a picnic to Kielder Water & Forest Park, great for romantic walks, birdwatching, outdoor activities and water sports.
Hadrian’s Wall World Heritage Site can be found in Northumberland, with five of the eight excavated forts and endless stretches of unbroken wall rising and falling over dramatic landscapes.
Visit Newcastle, where you can enjoy Museums, Art Galleries, Cathedrals or go to the Theatre Royal or one of the many other venues (such as the Metro Radio arena) with a range of entertainment to suit all tastes. For a real musical treat visit The Sage Gateshead which sits on of the River Tyne, with fantastic views of the river and its bridges, including the Tyne Bridge and the Gateshead Millennium Bridge and a year round programme of fabulous performances from artists from all over the world.
