    Northumberland is a magical place filled with ancient castles, hidden gardens, unspoilt beaches, rolling hills, rugged moorland, sweeping views, friendly little market towns and a cultural heritage all of its own. It’s one of the most appealing destinations to visit with its rugged unspoilt landscapes; it gives the impression that many parts of this quiet part of the country is yet to be discovered.
