Northumberland Experience Days

Northumberland Experiences and Things to Do in Northumberland

Explore Northumberland and discover a county rich in history, unique culture and startling natural beauty. The northernmost county in England, Northumberland has long been a frontier and battleground, boasting more castles than any other in the country and playing a significant role in the early development of Christianity. Today, around a quarter of it is protected as National Park and a sparse population means plenty of wild open spaces – ideal territory for an abundance of outdoor activities. Whether you’re a local or a tourist; adventurers, thrill-seekers and historians alike are guaranteed to find something for them.

For March, the latest Experience Days for Northumberland Experience Days include, Half Day Paintballing Experience plus 100 Paintballs pp, Northumberland Axe and Knife Throwing for Two, and Northumberland Clay Pigeon Shooting - 50 Clays.

    What is There to Do in Northumberland

    Unique Gifts and Days Out in Northumberland

    Northumberland borders Scotland to the north and owes much of its history to this contested frontier. Built around 120 AD during the Roman occupation of Britain, Hadrian’s Wall is the most famous evidence of the long relationship between the county and its neighbour. Enjoy a bracing trek along the World Heritage listed site, or – for a truly immersive experience of Roman Britain – opt for a day’s tour with a fully costumed Celtic chief! 
    Those wishing to travel even further back in time, will no doubt be drawn to the county’s numerous prehistoric sites, such as the Yeavering Bell hillfort, the Goatstones and Duddo Five Stones. Take in the hushed atmosphere of these ancient monuments and ponder on the lives of the mysterious people that made them. You can then learn more about how those same ancestors survived by joining a Bushcraft session and try your hand at sparking fire!
     
    The Holy Island of Lindisfarne lies just off the Northumberland coast. Still a place of pilgrimage for thousands each year, the island’s priory was home to the country’s early Christian monks – including patron saint of the North, St. Cuthbert – and the birthplace of the celebrated Lindisfarne Gospels. Today’s visitors can wander the hallowed grounds, peruse the Heritage Centre’s absorbing exhibits and admire the 16th century fortress overlooking the island. Wildlife enthusiasts can also spot several rare bird species and even grey seals within the national nature reserve. 

    The county’s coastline is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Besides Lindisfarne, you’ll find more imposing castles, sandy beaches and dramatic cliffs. You can enjoy traditional seaside fun in charming fishing communities, like Seahouses and Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, or try something new with a Kite Surfing Course, Stand-Up Paddleboarding Lesson or Coasteering Experience.

    The Northumberland National Park covers more than 400 square miles and offers fresh air, scenic vistas and England’s darkest skies. Comprising a variety of landscapes – from lofty hills to sweeping heather moorland – the park is a tranquil haven for lovers of the Great Outdoors. The adventurous can tackle the rugged terrain during a Quad Bike Trek or Segway Safari, before marvelling beneath a canopy of stars at Dark Sky Discovery Sites, like Cawfields and Walltown.  

    Northumberland is a wonderful county boasting a wealth of exciting activities and unique gift ideas. Whether you’re looking for yourself, or planning to treat someone special, it certainly deserves to be top of your list.

    My daughter bought me this experience from Australia as a birthday present and it was a very enjoyable event. The organisation was very professional and any worries I had about shooting were quickly overcome by the very thorough introduction by our instructor. Beautiful location and amazing weapons added to a fun experience that I would easily recommend to anyone. A great day out.
