The forty short walks in this book visit many of Northumberland’s famed historical attractions including Holy Island, Bamburgh and Dunstanburgh – as well as many less well-known ones – on a tour which also takes in rolling moorland, craggy hillsides, verdant gorges, beautiful farmland and a coastline packed with pretty harbours, hidden coves, vast sandy beaches and windswept dunes.
