Northumberland is often referred to as ‘England's last wilderness’. Offering miles of beautiful unspoilt countryside and beaches, it's a place of great natural beauty whose varied landscapes truly offer something for everybody.

The region is also rich in historical associations and is perhaps best known for its many imposing castles. These include Alnwick Castle and Garden, family home of the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland, Dunstanburgh, Warkworth, Lindisfarne and Bamburgh castles. Roman remains are also plentiful, the most famous being Hadrian’s Wall. There are many sites of interest located along its 73-mile length.

Lorbottle farm is located only five miles from the beautiful village of Rothbury and right on the doorstep of the Northumberland National Park with its miles and miles of clearly marked footpaths in beautiful surroundings – a walker’s dream!

Northumberland's extensive coastline is host to a number of quaint fishing villages and award-winning beaches. During your stay you may wish to visit Craster, famous for its kippers and views of Dunstanburgh Castle. Take a trip to the Farne Islands from Seahouses, or visit the beautiful village of Bamburgh with its stunning castle perched on the coast and home to the Grace Darling Museum. And then there is the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, a tidal island reached by a causeway at low tide. The island is birthplace of the Lindisfarne Gospels and renowned for its medieval religious heritage and sixteenth-century castle.
