Itinerary
Day 1 : Northumberland
If you’ve never been to Northumberland before you don’t know what you’re missing! England’s most northern county is a charming corner of the country which you will immediately fall in love with.
A hidden gem, Northumberland boasts some of the most dramatic and diverse natural scenery in the UK comprising vast unspoilt beaches, imposing castles, cobbled market towns and stunning wildlife.
Day 2 : Hadrian’S Wall & Chesters Roman Fort
Built some 2,000 years ago on the orders of emperor Hadrian following his visit to Britain in AD122, Hadrian’s Wall was once the northern frontier of the mighty Roman Empire. Stretching from coast to coast in northern England, with Roman ruins and fascinating museums to discover, this is the best preserved and best known of Rome’s great frontiers.
Chesters Roman Fort is part of Hadrian’s Wall and the most complete Roman cavalry fort in Britain, built to house a Roman army garrison guarding the nearby bridge across the River Tyne. The site boasts well-preserved baths and steam room, as well as officers' quarters.
Explore the rich history of Hadrian’s Wall, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and take in the spectacular views of the dramatic and rugged landscape.
Day 3 : Durham
The heritage city of Durham is a real gem in the North East and a great place to visit all year round.
Overlooked by its World Heritage Castle and spectacular Cathedral, the city is a magnificent place, steeped in history and culture as well as a vibrant shopping destination.
