BAMBURGH, LINDISFARNE & ALNWICK

On the route back to the hotel we stop in Alnwick where you can explore this lovely town at your leisure.

The County Hotel is one of Newcastle's original hotels dating back to 1874, located directly opposite Newcastle train station and within close proximity to the main shopping spots, museums and cultural attractions. The most opulent design and textiles have made rooms exceed even the highest of standards. The hotel has just undergone a refurbishment, updating remaining bedrooms to give them a fresh new look and giving the exterior a facelift.
