Elwick Farm, just 2 miles from the Al trunk road, makes an ideal
base for touring Northumberland
and is almost equidistant from the walled town of Berwick
and the market town of Alnwick
with the lovely Alnwick
Castle & its new Alnwick
Garden. There is an abundance of other Castles,
Bamburgh
Castle being only 5 miles away, as well as many historic
buildings in the area, not forgetting our many miles of uncrowded,
golden
beaches.
