    Tips

    July 3, 2017

    Visit Lindisfarne Castle (National Trust) and Lindisfarne Priory (English Heritage). Holy Island is also the starting point of both St Oswald's Way and St Cuthbert's Way. Do not miss a visit to Pilgrim's coffee in the village, open from 9:30 - 17:00 every day and try their excellent cakes and sandwiches before setting off on the Pilgrim's Way at low tide.

      Beautiful island to spend all day there but check tide times.

        First visit to Holy Island, and other than the weather, a wonderful place, plenty to see and do, the castle, the priory, coastal walks. Was very busy though. Get there early so you have a full day (tide times dependant) otherwise there may be long queues in to the car parks.
