ACCOMMODATION Nether Grange Sitting pretty in the centre of the quiet harbour village of Alnmouth, Nether Grange stands in an area rich in natural beauty and historic gravitas. There are moving views of the dramatic North Sea coastline from the house too. This one-time 18th century granary was first converted into a large family home for the High Sheriff of Northumberland in the 19th century and then reimagined as a characterful hikers’ hotel. Many of the 36 bedrooms look out across the sea, while a large lounge, conservatory and adjoining bar are there to entertain you. Easily accessible from the house are the coast path while inland lies the Northumberland National Park. North are the Farne Islands and their spectacular seabird colonies and close by is Lindisfarne and its romantic castle accessible at low-tide via an ancient pilgrim’s path. Nearby too is the medieval market town of Alnwick and its eponymous castle, as well as the atmospheric ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle, perched on a grassy peninsula to the south of Embbelton Bay. Best of all though is Bamburgh Castle, built to resemble a magnificent medieval fortress but actually an impressive Victorian folly. www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 4 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 Matchless Country House Accommodation Accommodation Info Need To Know Important Covid-19 Steps We Have Taken For Guest Safety: Please Read Following the relaxation in government guidance on 19 July, we are continuing to take extra steps to keep our guests leaders, and staff safe in our HF country houses. We ask all our guests to respect the measures put in place. The English, Scottish and Welsh governments are not in sync, so measures in our country houses will vary between the nations. With the relaxation of social distancing in England, from 19 July we will be allowing larger groups to dine and relax in the bar together. However, we will still give guests space e.g. we will seat 6 people at a table where pre-pandemic we may have seated 8. We will ensure our public rooms are well ventilated by opening doors and windows wherever possible. If you have any concerns about distancing, please speak to the House Manager. The government recommendation for England is to wear face coverings in crowded areas. You must wear a face covering by law in public areas in hotels in Scotland. This is mandatory in public spaces; however, face coverings will not be required whilst eating and drinking in the restaurant and bar areas or whilst you are outside our houses. In Wales face coverings will remain a legal requirement indoors, with the exception of hospitality premises. As a temporary measure, we will not be servicing rooms during a stay. Extra tea, coffee, milk, and toiletries will be made available on request for all guests. It is recommended that guests bring their own toiletries for the duration of their stay. We will though be increasing the frequency of cleaning in our public areas providing particular attention to frequently touched items including door handles and handrails. Menus for the week will be available in your room on arrival. A self-service breakfast will be served from 7.45am – 9am. Picnic lunches will now be pre-ordered the night before from an order form in the room. Evening meals will be table service. A dinner order form will be available in each room for completion. Dinner is served at either 7.15pm or 7.30pm. Please check at the house for details. The bar will be open. We will be offering a table service but guests can also come to the bar to order (depending on local restrictions). Join our team after dinner on Wednesday evenings for the HF Big Pub Quiz. There will be one other evening of entertainment at the start of the week, which will vary depending on the country house that you are staying at. Our Walk Leaders will also be on hand in the bar or lounge for individual or small group walks talks briefings, which allow guests to talk through the following day’s walk options and ask any questions. All of our swimming pools are open, except for Glen Coe, which will not re-open this year. Swimming Pools will be operated in line with maximum capacities.

  • Introductions to Heritage Assets: Hermitages
    Hermitages Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which have previously lacked such a published summary, either because the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. This IHA provides an introduction to hermitages (places which housed a religious individual or group seeking solitude and isolation). Six types of medieval hermitage have been identified based on their siting: island and fen; forest and hillside; cave; coast; highway and bridge; and town. Descriptions of solitary; cave; communal; chantry; and lighthouse hermitages; and town hermits and their development are included. Hermitages have a large number of possible associations and were fluid establishments, overlapping with hospices, hospitals, monasteries, nunneries, bridge and chantry chapels and monastic retreats. A list of in-depth sources on the topic is suggested for further reading. This document has been prepared by Kate Wilson and edited by Joe Flatman and Pete Herring. It is one of a series of 41 documents. This edition published by Historic England October 2018. All images © Historic England unless otherwise stated.

  • Songs of the Sea in Northumberland
    Songs of the Sea in Northumberland Destinations: Northumberland & England Trip code: ALMNS HOLIDAY OVERVIEW Sea shanties were working songs which helped sailors move in unison on manual tasks like hauling the anchor or hoisting sails; they also served to raise spirits. Songs were usually led by a shantyman who sang the verses with the sailors joining in for the chorus. Taking inspiration from these traditional songs, as well as those with a modern nautical connection, this break allows you to lend your voice to create beautiful harmonies singing as part of a group. Join us to sing with a tidal rhythm and flow and experience the joy of singing in unison. With a beachside location in sight of the sea, we might even take our singing outside to see what the mermaids think! WHAT'S INCLUDED • High quality Full Board en-suite accommodation and excellent food in our Country House • Guidance and tuition from a qualified leader, to ensure you get the most from your holiday • All music HOLIDAYS HIGHLIGHTS • Relaxed informal sessions • An expert leader to help you get the most out of your voice! • Free time in the afternoons www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 1 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 ACCOMMODATION Nether Grange Sitting pretty in the centre of the quiet harbour village of Alnmouth, Nether Grange stands in an area rich in natural beauty and historic gravitas.

  • Northumberland Coast Path
    Walking Holidays in Britain’s most Beautiful Landscapes Northumberland Coast Path The Northumberland Coast is best known for its sweeping beaches, imposing castles, rolling dunes, high rocky cliffs and isolated islands. Amidst this striking landscape is the evidence of an area steeped in history, covering 7000 years of human activity. A host of conservation sites, including two National Nature Reserves testify to the great variety of wildlife and habitats also found on the coast. The 64miles / 103km route follows the coast in most places with an inland detour between Belford and Holy Island. The route is generally level with very few climbs.

  • Comparative Breeding Biology of the Sandwich Tern
    COMPARATIVE BREEDING BIOLOGY OF THE SANDWICH TERN N.P.E. LANOHAM PREVIOUSstudies on the biologyof the SandwichTern (Thalasseussand- vicensis) include those of Dircksen (1932), a brief comparative account by Cullen (1960a), and a general account by Marples and Marples (1934). Some aspects of its breeding behavior have been described by Desselberger (1929), Steinbacher (1931), Assem (1954a, 1954b), and Cullen (1960b). None of these accountsrecords breeding success or gives details of factors influencing it in this species. In the present study, the Sandwich Tern's breeding biology was examined in conjunc- tion with simultaneousstudies on the Roseate Tern (Sterna dougallii), CommonTern (S. hirundo), and Arctic Tern (S. paradisaea). TttE STUDY AREA The study area was on Coquet Island, Northumberland, England, 55ø 38' N, 1ø 37z W, about 32 km south-southeast of the Farne Islands, the next nearest breedingstation for the four speciesof terns mentioned above. Coquet Island is a low island about 1.6 ha in area, rising only some 10 m above sea level and mostly covered with vegetation. It is composed of sandstone and has been eroded so that extensive shelves of rock are exposed at low tide. The island itself has steep edges with an almost flat top. The lighthouse grounds occupy 1,O00 m-ø, and tracts of stinging nettles (Urtica dioica) not occupied by terns comprise a further 2,500 m-ø. This leaves about 12,750 m2 available to the terns. Historical records around 1830 (Marples and Marples 1934) refer to the oc- currence of all four species of tern on Coquet Island. The construction of the lighthouse buildings in 1834, with cultivation of the island, and the introduction of domestic animals, evidently disturbed the terns breeding there and led to their disappearance about 1882 (Marples and Marples 1934).
