CHRISTON BANK

Embleton 2 miles; Beadnell 5 miles; Alnwick 8 miles.

Christon Bank lies 8 miles north east of Northumberland's major market town Alnwick, famous for its stunning castle and gardens. Only 2 miles east of the village are the beautiful bays at Embleton and Low Newton by the sea, which are nestled within miles and miles of unspoilt sandy beaches and dunes. To the north lies Lindisfarne on Holy Island, Berwick upon Tweed and the Scottish Borders whilst an hour's drive to the south is the vibrant city of Newcastle upon Tyne. Christon Bank is set amidst outstanding countryside, which is breathtakingly beautiful all year round. It is a small and friendly village with its own real ale pub, which offers a range of fine meals most evenings. There are an abundance of excellent pubs and restaurants in the neighbouring villages. With its superb sandy beaches, costal walks, golf, horse riding and cycle ways the area is perfect for a relaxing family holiday.
