Anyone recommend places to visit near Wooler?

[StripeyKnickersSpottySocks]

Planning of going to Holy Island, Alnwick, Beamish. We have a 6yo so either any child friendly places or just nice towns to pootle about. Would welcome more ideas as we're going for a week.

Thanks

Chillingham Castle, most haunted in britain? Ford.Etal/Heatherslaw - steam railway that runs between them all?

Anwick gardens, huge tree house type thing, water gardens etc.

Wet and wild at north shields if its raining.

Bamburgh

Morpeth is a nice wee market town, not a huge amount for a 6 year old but nice none the less

Diggerland in lanchester is great for wee boys, only about 10 mins from beamish

Hope this helps

There's a really good farm near Morpeth with quite a lot of indoor things too. White-something, maybe Whitehouse farm. Great chinese takeaway in Wooler. We found it on our last night there a couple of years ago and DH wanted to go back this year for a holiday just so he could have another garlicy takeaway. Beach at Bamburgh lovely. Decent pool at Berwick if it chucks it down. Wet n wild great with older kids but not much for little children.

I second Diggerland too.

Whitehouse Farm near morpeth is really nice, we were there at the last BH weekend.

Beamish is good but really quite a drive from Wooler, not sure if it will be worth it tbh but depends on how good your ds is in the car.

Loads of nice castles; Alnwick, Bamburgh, Warkworth, Chillingham, Dunstanburgh.

Craster kippers/smokery, nice little harbour with a walk along a coastal path to Dunstanburgh castle.

Newcastle to see the millenium bridge that tilts.

ooooo whitehouse farm why didnt i remember that its one of my favourite places!!! nice pub near it at stannington called ridley arms -- very child friendly

i think beamish is greatb - could easily spend a full day there if the weather is ok?

Thanks for that - lots of ideas, should be enough to keep us busy!
