Looking for a proper getaway? A beautiful, peaceful land of vast beaches, wild countryside and iconic landmarks?

Well you're in luck! Northumberland is not only one of the most stunning places in the UK, it's also one of the least crowded.

Rolling hills, dramatic castles and a huge national park meet glorious sandy beaches - and all of it pretty much quiet and unspoiled.

To help inspire you, we've picked out some of our favourite Northumbrian hideaways - including a country house that's half cottage half castle, an amazing fairy-tale treehouse and lots more!

Check out our guide to Northumberland for things to do, places to go - and some of the best pubs and restaurants.
