Area Insights
The Holy Island of Lindisfarne is the popular but perfectly tranquil Island off the Northumberland coast. Home to attractions like Lindisfarne Castle, the 2019 garden of the year The Gertrude Jekyll Garden, and St. Aidan’s Winery, the island offers a variety of attractions to inhabitants and visitors alike, not to mention breath taking scenery and endless sea views. During low tide Holy Island gives access to St. Cuthbert’s Island, a smaller island which has a narrower window for visits between tides but is a great spot for bird and seal spotting. Holy Island access is at the mercy of the tides and there are times throughout each 24 hour period during which is it not possible to drive onto or off the Island.
