Local Area Guide

    There's plenty to see and do nearby. Here are our top picks.

    We're lucky to be right in the middle of it all — museums, castles, beaches, and proper pubs are all on your doorstep. These are the places we love and the ones our guests keep coming back for. Northumberland, Hadrian's Wall, Holy Island, Alnwick, and Berwick are all comfortable day trips too.
