Lucker Hall, Northumberland, England

Walks around Lucker Hall

While there’s plenty to enjoy on site at Lucker Hall, Northumberland is also a fantastic choice for those wanting to get out and about on two feet. From National Park trails to picturesque coastline, as well as miles of country paths, it’s prime walking territory. And it doesn’t matter how far you want to travel - the area around Lucker Hall is made up of glorious farmland and quaint villages or alternatively, bondholders can travel a little further afield to discover even more of what this magnificent county has to offer.

As with our other HPB sites, this selection of fifteen walks includes two routes (number one and two) which begin straight from the property. Meanwhile, others are located in areas of visitor interest or beauty spots, including the Island of Lindisfarne and Northumberland National Park. The National Park, in particular, is well worth a visit. Just 25 minutes by car from Lucker Hall, it consists of lush forests, rolling hills and spectacular landscapes. The coast is also less than a 20-minute drive and provides a wonderful change to enjoy some sea air with a bracing clifftop trek.

Although much of the Northumberland landscape can be quite demanding for walkers, due in no small part to the many beautiful hills and valleys, most of these walks are well within the ability of the average walker. Many of our chosen routes remain mostly on green paths or surfaced trails over farmland, forest and moorland, and remain on a mostly even level. However, it is impossible to avoid ascents and descents completely in this part of the UK, so please be sure to check the information provided for your chosen route. Sturdy walking shoes are also recommended for each walk.

As you explore this walking pack, you’ll find the introduction to each walk gives a brief summary to the area, the distance, ascent, refreshment opportunities and appropriate map. Whilst the route directions and sketch plans should be entirely adequate of avoid losing the way, the possession of Ordnance Survey maps, particularly the 1:25,000 Explorer series, undoubtedly adds to the understanding of the landscape.
