We leave Lancashire and head for the Northeast where we stop on route for refreshments. We arrive at The White Swan hotel in time to settle in before our evening meal. This holiday is a relaxing break where you have a day free to explore this magical area at leisure, our hotel is close to Alnwick Castle, one of Britain’s most iconic castles, dating back to the Norman period. The second largest inhabited castle in the UK, a refuge, a film set and a family home with extraordinary history, famous for Harry Potter and Downton Abbey. We also have two days out to the pretty harbour of Seahouses with free time, then further along the coast for free time in Bamburgh.
