This morning we visit Bamburgh; a beautiful coastal town set in the heart of Northumberland which is most famous for its striking castle and Northumberland’s finest sausage ‘The Bamburgh Banger’! This afternoon, we have arranged a trip over to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne*. Lying just off the Northumberland Coast, Holy Island, as seen on Robson Green’s Tales from Northumberland, is a picturesque, unspoilt village that is cut off twice-daily from the rest of the world by fast-moving tides. (*tides dependent)

We return to the hotel for the afternoon at leisure.
