Coast & Castles Route – 2
Leaving Berwick on the Saturday with 40-something miles in front of us we follow the coast, literally, National Cycle Route One follows a cycle path and C road route along cliff tops with few contour lines to cross, I just hope its a sunny day or we’ll be lashed by wind and surf, but eventually we reach our quandary.
Now if we’ve timed this right on map two (above) you’ll see a diversion out into the sea, as long as we reach here at or around noon (12.30 to be precise) then the causeway to Lindisfarne will be uncovered by the tide and the option of a slight detour and luncheon on the island is at our disposal.
Time is our friend on this route and there are so many places to stop and admire the view on this Saturday section that I really am spoiling you, if we reach the Lindisfarne diversion too early then fear not for there are plenty of other distractions further down the coast, and Andy will be savouring the moment we arrive in Craster, but thats for later.
The journey continues…
