Places to stay in Northumberland
Dramatic cliff-top castles and magnificent panoramas, evocative moorland and immaculately preserved heritage. A trip to this region will transport you far away from the world of nine to five.
Start your journey at Morpeth – ‘the gateway to Northumberland’ – and join in the hubbub of this attractive, bustling market town. Stroll the delightful gardens at Belsay Hall and admire a riot of colour throughout the grounds of this castle-turned-mansion. At Wallington, admire the huge pre-Raphaelite paintings adorning the walls and creep around the enchanting hidden garden. Or take in the dramatic landscapes at Bolam Lake and spot grazing Highland cattle in Plessey Woods.
