Out and About
Located on the World Heritage Coastline of Northumberland, The Kaims offers an unparalleled setting from which to discover and explore the wealth of local history and stunning natural beauty.
Just moments form The Kaims Country Park rises the iconic edifice of Bamburgh Castle, standing guard over the once plundered shores, and the quiet village below. Northumberland is a veritable treasure trove of crenelated castles, non more significant in the history of this ancient county than Alnwick. Seat of the Percy family, Lords of Northumbria, Alnwick Castle is not only an ancient fortress of special interest to historians, but also a family home, and a location for many a famous film; Notably including the Harry Potter films, Elizabeth, and Robin Hood Prince of Thieves. Jane, The Duchess of Northumberland is an avid gardener, and has created one of the most celebrated gardens in Europe. Alnwick Castle Gardens has the largest tree house in Europe, and magnificent water-features, as well as a one-of-a-kind poison garden.
Gaze from the battlements of Bamburgh to catch a glimpse of Lindisfarne, known to locals as Holy Island, which is the birthplace of Christianity in England. Famed for its abbey, castle, and meade, Lindisfarne is a tidal island, arrived at by a causeway from the mainland. After falling into disrepair the castles fortunes were revived by the architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, and the garden designer, Gertrude Jekyll. Both the castle and the ruins of the abbey can be visited throughout the year.
To the north of The Kaims lies Berwick-upon Tweed. This delightful Borders market town has been prominent in both Scots and English history, which can be seen in the magnificent Elizabethan fortifications, and superb panoramic views of Holy Island and Bamburgh to the south. A favourite holiday destination of the famous Mancunian artist L.S. Lowry, Berwick has many attractions to offer the visitor, including its elegant Georgian architecture mingled with ancient stone town walls and battlements, from which one can watch the swans on the mouth of the Tweed. Enjoy the theatre, cinema, swimming pool, cafés, restaurants and boutiques, as well as the sheltered sandy beaches, cliff top golf course and friendly welcome.
From Berwick, flit cross the border, and in a little under an hour you’ll discover the Scottish capital, Edinburgh. Known for its jutting castle perched high atop a volcanic bluff, elegant skyline and coastal location, Edinburgh is a truly delightful city, full of life and history. Take a tour through the Old Town up to the castle, or walk through the Georgian elegance of New Town, with immaculate garden squares and stately appeal. With many galleries and museums to visit, Edinburgh is fascinating at any time of year: In summer the Edinburgh Fringe Festival brings visitors from every corner of the world, and in the winter the Christmas festivities and Hogmanay are just as popular. You’ll find fabulous shopping, cafés and restaurants, as in any capital city, but only Edinburgh has the Royal Yacht Britannia, Holyrood Palace, Arthur’s Seat, the Scottish Parliament, plus Portobello and its big family friendly sandy beach.
While Edinburgh is the Scottish cultural capital, Newcastle is the English entertainment centre. From it’s coal dust covered past has sprouted a glitzy city that loves to entertain. With impressive galleries such as the Baltic, amazing music venues including the Sage, theatres, awesome shopping, unique nightlife, plus the Millennium Eye Bridge, Quayside, and annual Tall Ships Race, Newcastle is the place to be.
