Regional Information - Northumbria and Durham

Within Northumbria & Durham, we have a quality selection of holiday cottages. Whether you are looking for a break on the beautiful Northumbrian Coast, with its deserted beaches, within the wild landscape of rural Northumberland, or in the little visited but equally beautiful countryside of County Durham we have the holiday cottage for you. All in all, superb holiday cottages to rent, at excellent prices, direct from the owner.

Northumbria is regarded by many to be the most beautiful region in all England. Largely unspoiled by tourism it stretches from the spectacular and relatively unknown Cheviot Hills in the North to the timeless moorland of County Durham in the South. The Northumberland beaches offer many miles of deserted sand and there is a tranquillity in this region that you will not find anywhere else in England.

Amongst the many places to visit are Alnwick castle, The City of Durham with its magnificent Norman Cathedral, the ancient abbey of Lindisfarne and the coastal fortress villages of Bamburgh and Warkworth. There are many National Parks and Britain's largest man made lake at Kielder, which is surrounded by forests, has become a mecca for the water sports enthusiast. The moorland of County Durham is a walker's paradise and the undiscovered district of Weardale is an unforgettable journey back into the past. Once you have discovered this magnificent region you will want to return again and again!
