Your trip to Northumberland will be left incomplete if you dont visit the Holy Island of Lindisfarne. The Holy Isle has been a place of pilgrimage for more than 1,300 years. Most of the time the islands causeway remains submerged by the sea and thus the island can be accessed only twice a day. The Priory and Castle are a stunning and humbling visit.
