Album Notes: For three decades these sons of Newcastle have kept the folk-rock tradition alive and well. This Hong Kong import compilation includes 19 songs culled from Lindisfarne's long career, including their hits "Lady Eleanor" and "Run For Home."
Advantages: History for the viewing. Disadvantages: Admisson prices a bit steep for castle and Priory.
...Our Day Trip to Lindisfarne from Berwick-upon Tweed.
As the Island is accessable only by a causeway that floods with the tide, it is important to do a bit of planning.
The official Lindisfarne web site (find thru google) will list the times each day that the causeway will be open.
From Berwick on Tweed Travelsure Bus Company run Buses from Berwick to the Island (at present) on Weds and Sats. The timetable shows six times A B C D E F
on a particular day two options will be operating as per the tide.
so Last Sat options C & F were in operation, this was Departing Berwick at 12:15 with a return time of 17:05.
The journey took about 40 mins, which gave up 4 hours on the Island, for most this is time a plenty. Cost was £5 for a dayreturn ticket.
The Bus takes you across the causeway and terminates in Lindisfarne Village (Very...

Advantages: Plenty to see and beautiful scenery Disadvantages: If you get cut off by the tide!
...I recently spent a few days in Northumberland, and took the opportunity to return to Lindisfarne, or Holy Island as it is probably better known.
Locally, the island is rarely referred to as 'Lindisfarne'. The signposts mostly state 'Holy Island'. Following on from the murderous and bloodthirsty attack on the monestary by the Vikings in 793AD, it obtained its local name from the observations made by the Durham monks: 'Lindisfarne - baptised in the blood of so many good men - truly a 'Holy Island'. Its more appropriate title is 'The Holy Island of Lindisfarne'.
Travelling along the A1 south of Berwick-upon-Tweed, you will notice Holy Island signposted. After turning off from the A1, a short drive brings you to the causeway which you have to cross to reach the island.
The causeway is open twice daily, dictated by the tides, so if you are...

Advantages: Inspirational coastline, Plenty for visitors to see and do Disadvantages: Timing your visit to the tidal causeway
...brewed beers, Lindisfarne fruit wines, preserves, confectionary (including Lindisfarne fudge) and an impressive array of Scotch and Irish whiskeys. I settled on a bag of cherry fudge for around £1.50 (which I highly recommend) and a jar of marmalade with Lindisfarne Liqueur (at a not unreasonable £1.79). At the time I was visiting the premises was undergoing major building works in preparation for the summer season, so I did not perhaps see it in the best light, but given the excellent (and largely fairly priced) stock, this is certainly worth popping into while you?re on the island. You can see the range of products and buy online at: www.lindisfarne-mead.co.uk. I could not find any information on opening hours, but I suspect that this varies depending on when the causeway is accessible, and would expect it to be open daily as with other...
