Blog Info

I love Castles, History and Archaeology, If I could have my time again I would train to be a Archaeologist!
I am a keen artist and traveller, I seek adventure however I am also disabled and a dog owner.
So I thought it would be a neat idea to have a blog that I could share some photos of my castle hunting adventures and basic info on these sites from a disabled, dog owning artist!

Cadw Offers Disabled people and there companion Free access to there sites, If you have any problems, attitude or access on this generous offer make sure you contact Cadw so they can improve.

I have only provided basic info as there are enough sites on the net to give you this information.

Lindisfarne Priory

The Holy Island of Lindisfarne is a tidal island off the northeast coast of England. It is also known just as Holy Island. It constitutes the civil parish of Holy Island in Northumberland. Holy Island has a recorded history from the 6th century
Once you get on to Holy Island there is a main car park which is pay and display, blue badge holders can park for free and also park in the village.
There is a mini bus service that can take you to the castle and priory this currently cost £2 return
Toilets are by the coach car park near the priory
The site is mostly on one level with the odd grassy slope to get to the lower section of the priory
There are a few benches around the site to rest ones weary bones
