Discover Northumberland

Northumberland is famed for its stunning landscape, which includes large expanses of well-preserved sandy beaches, the highest number of castles in the UK, a superb National Park and two declared Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

To the north, you’ll discover Hadrian’s Wall, Britain’s best-preserved Roman structure; to the south, the stunning North Pennines; and to the east, a seemingly endless seashore.

The county’s legacy is everywhere, from magnificent castles to historic strongholds and abbeys. Northumberland is also a terrific seaside trip, with an abundance of silky smooth beaches and tranquil fishing villages. Get to know the various cycling paths offered for adventurous visitors.
