About Northumberland

Northumberland is a land of big adventures, breathtaking beauty, and endless possibilities. Whether you're seeking wide open spaces or vibrant local life, the county offers a rich mix of experiences for every kind of visitor. Explore ruinous castles, windswept and barely visited beaches, or stroll through market towns bursting with charm. You can get stuck into it all or escape it entirely. From stargazing beneath some of the darkest skies in Europe to discovering remote landscapes where you might not see another soul, Northumberland invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and create unforgettable memories.
