    Wow❤ so beautiful. I'm an Ireland fan but lately I have been doing some research maybe traveling to Snowdonia and Llyn, didn't know you can do so many great walks there as my walking guides only include snowdonia. Thanks for sharing!! This might convince me to try Wales. Don't know if I should do Wales (Snowdonia/Lynn) in May or county cork in Ireland. You are quite fit doing so many walks. Well done! 🎉 Also like the music for this video.

    Lovely video Jim and Dawn. I originate from Northumberland but have lived in the Mansfield area of Nottinghamshire since the pit closures in the mid 1960's. My Dad was an electrician at Linton pit and we moved in October 1966. I still get up to Northumberland at least twice a year and I always stay in Amble or Warkworth for a week each visit. I love walking my wee Border Terrier, Bob, along the very route you have just highlighted. There are some wonderful places along that Coastal route. As children we used to walk across the fields at Linton to Cresswell beach and Druridge Bay. I always try to get to Alnmouth, Beadnell, Craster, Seahouses and Alnwick when I am up there. All lovely places to visit. Take care and all the very best for a joyous 2023. 🙏
