Holy Island of Lindisfarne: Do remember that Holy Island is tidal and the tides cannot be beaten - even with a 4 x 4. To be safe please check the safe daily crossing times before you set off.

Berwick on Tweed area: L S Lowry Trail, The Hayloft Gallery at Paxton House. It contains the pre-eminent Scottish collection of Chippendale furniture and acts as an outstation of the National Galleries of Scotland.
