With superb beaches, the UK's favourite national park, and a coastline dotted with castles, Northumbrians know that there are few better places to spend a day out than their home county.
However, visitors are still coming to learn just how much of an incredible destination Northumberland is. And a new guide and map launched by Northumberland's official tourist board is hoping to offer some suggestions on how visitors can make the most of their stay in the county.
Visit Northumberland's new Days Out leaflet aims to encourage visitors to dwell longer and experience more in 2022, with more than 50 activities, attractions, events and places to eat and drinks, shop and stay included. A total of 150,000 copies have been set for distribution across the county, intended to support its ambition to return tourism to pre- Covid levels - in 2019 the sector brought in £1.04bn and directly employed more than 13,000 people.
