The coastline in this region is characterised by a mixture of rocky inlets and lovely sandy beaches with attractive walks along the cliff tops. A 14 mile coastal footpath between Beadnell and Alnmouth passes nearby providing the opportunity of walking through some of the most outstanding coastal scenery in the country, this part of the Heritage Coast is designated an "Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty" as well as being a "Site of Special Scientific Interest". The Coast and Castles cycle route passes nearby.
Nearby Howick Hall Gardens & Arboretum, the ancestral seat of the Earls Grey since 1319, was home to the 2nd Earl Grey, after whom the famous tea is named, the Prime Minister responsible for the passing of the Great Reform Bill of 1832 and whose monument stands at the top of Grey Street in Newcastle upon Tyne. Wander through the beautiful gardens created by the 5th Earl Grey and his family or for the more energetic explore the arboretum, a united nations of shrubs and trees covering over 65 acres. Take a rest from exploring in the Earl Grey Tea House for a bite to eat and a cup of Earl Grey Tea. Craster is 2.5 miles north. Alnwick is 7 miles.
