Location

Holy Island, also known as Lindisfarne, is one of Northumberland’s most distinctive coastal locations, renowned for its unspoilt scenery, rich history and unique island setting. Steeped in heritage, the island is home to the historic Lindisfarne Priory and Castle, while its sweeping sandy beaches, dunes and dramatic coastline provide an exceptional backdrop for walking and enjoying the surrounding landscape.

1 Crossgates occupies a central position on the island, providing an excellent base from which to enjoy the village, coastline and local amenities. Despite its tranquil and secluded setting, Holy Island is conveniently placed for access to the wider Northumberland coast and countryside.

The market town of Berwick-upon-Tweed is approximately 10 miles away and provides a good range of shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, together with a mainline railway station offering regular services north and south, including direct connections to Edinburgh and Newcastle.

The A1 is readily accessible, providing excellent road links throughout Northumberland and beyond. Edinburgh is within easy reach by road or rail, while Newcastle and the wider North East are also conveniently accessible.

With its exceptional coastal setting, historic character and surprisingly accessible location, Holy Island offers a rare combination of tranquillity, natural beauty and connectivity.
