After A Year Of Living In A Van, This Really Shocked Us! (Northumberland)

  • We've just spent the last week on our favourite UK beach park ups, doing van life in the incredible Northumberland (UK), but how does it compare to the NC500 (North Coast 500, Scotland)?
    We have been living in a van in the UK now for over a year, and this place truly shocked us...it was simply magnificent
    The Northumberland Coast is one of the best campervan road trips in Britain. We started the trip off at Blast Beach, Seaham, Teeside. We then drove into Northumberland to Blyth, followed by Cresswell Beach, Amble Marina, Warkworth Castle, Alnmouth, Alnwick (where Harry Potter & Hogwarts films were set, and Robin Hood Prince of Thieves), Lower Newton, Seahouses (where we saw puffins), Bamburgh, Holy Island/Lindisfarne, and then Cheswick Beach near Berwick.
    Did you know that Northumberland has a similar NC500 route? It's called the NL250 and we intend to drive the other half of it on the way back down

    I knew you’d love our beautiful county. I feel incredibly lucky to live here. When my children were young we used to stay at Seahouses a lot. We’d walk that beach between Seahouses and Bamburgh and sometimes not see a soul. It was called ‘the forgotten county’ then. A tourist information advert put pay to that, it’s become more and more popular. Whilst it’s lovely to share our treasure, sometimes I miss the days of solitude in Northumberland. Our beaches are to die for and the inland treasures like The Roman Wall and the beautiful hillsides are spectacular too. There are so many interesting places to visit, a wealth of history and lots to do. I’m so glad you got to enjoy it and hope you’ll feel inclined to call again. By the way, I’m 3 minutes drive from the entrance to the Tyne Tunnel, you could have called for tea! Lol.

      Yes Cornwall and Wales are becoming exasperated with Tourists and are asking people to stay away. Because Cornwall especially does not have sufficient housing stock for their own young people , and are especially wearying of Buy to Holiday Let people . They are graffitiing things like expletives , telling tourists to go away. Which is not very nice at all. I suggest you stay where you are In the North and Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. We are , remaining there it’s more welcoming presently .

    Hi guys,looks like you read our comment the other week about our northumberland as youve done all we said & its not disapointed you both & judging by the comments many more camper vaners will follow,we went to school in Alnwick, now living 1.5 miles from the beach near Amble,& would never ever move away from the area, the coastal route from cresswell to amble saw many opencast coal mining sites up until the 1990's that once mined out were put back as perfect farming land & nature reserves, done that well by the national coal board that you would have never known or spotted if i had not mentioned it.we are pleased you both love the area we are proud to call home & be northumbrian!.

    I'm booked to play at a music festival on Lindisfarne in September and although I'll never take any music festival for granted ever again after those missing 2 years, Lindisfarne has a special place in my heart. It's visually stunning but also magical and add in music which is both my job and my passion and it makes for the most perfect moments of the year.

    My husband and I have been on several walking holidays thru Northumberland. I don’t think anywhere else in the UK compares for the scenery and the privacy. If you ever go back to Holy Island, consider walking across when the tide is out. Pilgrims walking both St. Oswald’s Way and St. Cuthbert’s Walk all end up at Lindisfarne, barefoot and often singing. It is an experience you will never forget.

    Definitely one of the best videos, scenically at least. The drone is wonderful. What an asset. How you get overhead shots of Morgan and crew crossing the causeway to Lindisfarne is a mystery to me. Do you give it commands, "Dear Drone, follow us and don't go anywhere else!" 😄
    I was waiting for the "Aliens" beach. Did I miss it?
    My two favourite moments:
    Liam barely stirring from his warm bed muttering "Yes, lets get going." And Janine, hearing about the all vegan ice cream shop on Lindisfarne. "I'm on a diet. I'm definitely going to have an ice cream." 😀
