The wide expanse of golden and often empty sandy beaches this region is renowned for, is perfect for a romantic stroll to feel the sand between your toes and watch the waves lap against the shoreline. The tidal island of Lindisfarne, locally known as Holy Island and the birthplace of Christianity, can be viewed from here too. A little further north is the bird sanctuary at Budle Bay, and at low tide a vast expanse of mud flats is the home to countless thousands of sea and land birds making this location a haven for bird watchers. The sweep of golden sands at Beadnell Bay is popular with water sport enthusiasts, only two miles to the south. The elegant Georgian town of Berwick, which straddles the salmon-rich river Tweed, is 17 miles north and the historic market town of Alnwick, 12 miles inland, with its own magnificent castle, offers many facilities. Alnwick Garden is a popular visitor attraction with its grand cascading waterfall, and restaurant set within the largest tree house in Europe.
