Local Attractions near Rothbury
Top Attractions: Cultural treats in the area include the award winning £32 million Alnwick Garden, the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, umpteen historic castles to be explored along Northumberland's Heritage Coast, Hadrian's Wall, and Newcastle's Quayside with its Baltic Arts Centre and Sage Music Centre. The largest estate owned by the National Trust, Wallington Hall, is a short drive away, as is the National Trust owned Cragside House, the home of Burnfoot's illustrious former owner, Lord Armstrong. Less strenuous pursuits include spending lazy days enjoying the endless, golden beaches of the Northumbrian coast, or simply browsing through the boutiques of the charming market towns of Alnwick and Morpeth. Other days you will simply want to stay put and appreciate your surroundings. The fields surrounding the cottages are a protected Site of Special Scientific Interest due to the rare wildlife present - from otters and kingfishers, to a variety of rare wintering wading birds. With your own holiday home in what the Campaign to Protect Rural England have scientifically proven to be the most tranquil place in England, you'll just need to be here to be restored, inspired and refreshed!

There is a full list of the best Castles, Gardens and Stately Homes within an easy drive inside every cottage. The coast of Northumberland is stunning. Beautiful, deserted sandy beaches, littered with ancient castles. There are umpteen walks and beaches – details of which can be found in the welcome pack of every cottage.
