"LINDISFARNE: Holy Island" Day trips from Newcastle Tip by maykal

 
 

LINDISFARNE:You should try to get to Lindisfarne, although it is difficult unless you have your own car. For more pictures and info, see my travelogue about Lindisfarne.
I forgot to mention in the travelogue that Lindisfarne produces its own variety of alcohol, called Lindisfarne Mead....it is very strong and tastes vaguely of honey, and you can try a free sample at the imaginitively titled 'Lindisfarne Mead Shop'. Small bottles start at £1.50.

Directions: About an hour and a half by road from Durham, lying off the coast between Berwick-upon-Tweed and Bamburgh.
othercontact: Before travelling to Lindisfarne

Review Helpfulness: 1.5 out of 5 stars
