Hexham Attractions

 
We are located within easy reach of all the major attractions along Hadrian's Wall. We are less than half a mile from Chesters Roman Fort and within a few minutes of Housesteads, Steel Rigg and Vindolanda. The Hadrian's Wall Bus, which often has a guide on board, stops at the bottom of our lane.

The lovely historic market town of Hexham is just down the road and has an Abbey whose crypt dates from AD 675 and a 14th century Old Gaol.

Just to the north lies Kielder Water, the largest man-made lake in Europe, where you can sail, take a ferry and go for magnificent walks or cycle rides through the forest and around the reservoir. You can also admire the many artworks located around the Kielder area.

To the east Newcastle and Gateshead are only 30 minutes away with their famous Quayside and the shopping delights of the Metro Centre.

To the north of the city lies the spectular Northumberland coast with its castles and windswept sandy beaches.
