We decided to escape last weekend, away from Cumbria and to the North East coast. Northumberland is somewhere I’ve wanted to visit for such a long time and with us promising each other to see a little more of the UK this year we thought that a short break whilst the sun was still shining would do us some good before I started my new job. We booked an Air BnB the night before, packed a box of food and drove up on Friday evening. There were a number of thing’s I wanted to see, Alnwick castle & the garden’s were top of the list but it was SO expensive and we just didn’t have enough time in the day to make the most of it (and if I’m being honest, I’m f**king skint) so we decided against that and just visited a few local towns/villages. Alnmouth beach is beautiful, it runs right alongside a golf course and is a must-go if you’re visiting Northumberland. We enjoyed fish n’ chips in Alnwick and explored the cute little shops in the town as well as finally visiting the Treehouse Restaurant for Sunday lunch before heading home. It is a bit overpriced for what you get, I was still hungry after my roast beef dinner but it’s a nice place to go and see, perhaps they can work on their portion sizes or maybe I’m just greedy (most likely the latter). I would recommend booking too as it gets busy fairly quick! There’s been a few people asking where we stayed so I’ll link that here for you guys! It was lovely, the hosts were welcoming and it just felt like we were away from everyone and everything even though the Shepard’s hut was at the bottom of the garden, don’t get me wrong it’s probably the longest garden I’ve ever seen but still a garden nonetheless! Also, I never got chance to VLOG, god dammit. We were so exhausted so we just took each day as it came and made the most of each others company before getting back to work and I wanna focus a little more on my photography and I do enjoy updating my Instagram stories more often. I feel more connected and in the moment that way! Anyway, now I know I am rambling so I will end this post here. Have a lovely rest of the week and I will be speaking to you again very soon. Love, L.
