Middlemoor Farm Holidays

Alnwick is your nearest point of interest while staying at this site. Set off for the market town (10 minutes’ drive) to mosey around the medieval castle, then drop into the gardens to peer at the collection of poisonous plants before having a cuppa in the treehouse café. Browse the shelves of the popular second-hand bookshop in town to pick up a tome to take back for a read on your decking, following up a spot of shopping with visits to Bamburgh and Chillingham castles (both 20 minutes). Switch things up a touch with a trip to a stately home – Cragside (half an hour) is a Victorian country house with gorgeous gardens and woodland to wander. Saunter around Seahouses (20 minutes) next, a sweet village with a harbour, then glide along on a boat trip to the Farne Islands. In the right season, you’ll see sea birds, seals and dolphins enroute. Pick a tour that drops you off at Lindisfarne (Holy Island) for jaunts to the Priory Museum, St Aidan’s Winery and Lindisfarne Castle.
