Bamburgh Northumberland, England

Local Activities for Mallow Lodge

  • Northumberland is known for its castles, so while you’re here make sure you visit what some consider to be the most picturesque. Bamburgh Castle stands guard over the North Sea from a rocky plateau. There are 1,400 years of history to discover right here.
  • Alnwick Castle is a great day out too. The Gardens were lovingly restored by the Duchess of Northumberland, and contain fascinating features like the Poison Garden. While you’re in Alnwick, make sure to pop into Barter Books, the nation’s biggest second-hand bookshop and the place where all those ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ posters originated from.
  • If you’re still hungry for castles, Lindisfarne is a spectacular destination. The Holy Island seems steeped in time – monks lovingly crafted the Lindisfarne Gospel here in the 700s, and people still come on religious retreats here today. Make sure to time your visit well – the island gets cut off from the mainland at high tide!
  • One of the North East’s best kept secrets are the beaches that stretch for miles along the North Sea. BamburghEmbleton and Beadnell are all within driving distance of Mallow Lodge.
  • Northumberland is mountain country and there’s plenty of high spots to choose from. The Cheviot Hills are breathtaking, and walking the ridges you can feel that you’re the only soul in the world. The waterfall of Linhope Spout plunges 18 metres to a pool below, and makes quite a racket!
  • If you get a buzz out of buzzards or want to catch an oystercatcher, then Budle Bay is well worth a visit. Both migrants and natives flock here throughout the year, and there’s always plenty to see. There are binoculars you can borrow at Mallow Lodge.

Surrounding Villages and Towns

  • Alnwick - With a bustling town centre, visit Alnwick Castle and Gardens, and The Bailiffgate Museum is a small independent museum dedicated to the history of Alnwick and North Northumberland.
  • Newcastle-Upon-Tyne – The north east’s biggest city makes a lively contrast with the medieval castles, ruined abbeys and wide open spaces of the north east’s coast National Parks and AONB.
  • Rothbury - A traditional market town in central Northumberland. Visit Cragside – Set in more than 900 acres of country park and gardens, National Trust owned Cragside was built in the 19th century for the first Lord Armstrong. A whimsical cross between an English manor house and a Bavarian schloss, it was the first house in the world to be lit by hydroelectricity.

Local Places to visit

  • Holy Island (Lindesfarne) Skim over the sands and causeway to Holy Island and prepare to enter another world. Holy Island is cut off twice-daily from the rest of the world by fast-moving tides. Both an island and a picturesque village, Holy Island carries a wealth of history within its tidal walls.
  • Cheviot Hills - Millions of years ago, lava cooled to form the distinctive rounded Cheviot Hills, which dominate the northern end of the National Park, and are full of hidden delights.
  • The Angel of the North - Since spreading its wings in February 1998, Antony Gormley's The Angel of the North has become one of the most talked about pieces of public art ever produced. Rising 20 metres from the earth near the A1 in Gateshead, the Angel dominates the skyline, dwarfing all those who come to see it. Made from 200 tonnes of steel, it has a wingspan of 54 metres and a red-brown colour that comes from the weathering steel which can withstand winds of more than 100 miles per hour. Getting up close and personal with the Angel is an experience you'll never forget.
