Hotels in Northumberland, United Kingdom
Northumberland, in northeast England along the Scottish border, has a cool maritime climate with summer highs around 65°F (18°C) and winter lows near 35°F (2°C). It's famous for Hadrian's Wall, a Roman frontier built in 122 AD, and over 70 castles like Bamburgh Castle perched on volcanic rock above the North Sea. In summer, you can hike the 84-mile Hadrian's Wall Path or stargaze in Northumberland National Park (Europe's largest Dark Sky Park), while winter lets you explore Alnwick Castle's medieval rooms and watch storm waves crash at Lindisfarne.
