It's like Christmas morning as a kid all over again every time I wake up and see that wonderful notification saying you've posted another video! I can't express how much I love them! Thank you, Thank you!!!!
What a fantastic adventure! The gorgeous scenery, the history of the area as well as all the historical places to see & visit made this episode unforgetable. Thanks for bringing us along.
I know the area quite well and we normally go up to the Northumberland Coast every summer for 2-3 weeks (concluding this last weekend, by chance). So your trip , more so from the next video onwards, covers well trodden ground for me. I would say that if the rest of the videos are like this one, they will be well filmed, well presented and edited and moved along at a gentle pace. There is no need to rush when showing such natural beauty and history. This video was like a good TV travel documentary. A really good watch
I love that land has been cleaned up from mining and made into conservation for nature to reclaim. I'm really going to enjoy this series, although I love all you do. Take care Simon and Will. =-)
Que hermoso y apacible lugar caminar solo por éstos lugares tan verdes y con un mar de fondo. En casi todo el mundo se han cerrado las minas de carbón , ya que murieron muchos hombre cumpliendo su trabajo para mantener a sus familias. Acá en Chile hace más de 20 años que se cerro la mina de carbón, que estaba bajo el mar. Saludos a ustedes dos.
Hello from Cyprus! I really love your videos, and that you give lots of information about the places you visit! I like the voice of the narrator, you speak so clearly, and it's so easy to understand you (as english is not my first language)! Looking forward to the next video! XX
As good as anything you’ve done so far. I always enjoyed working in that area before I retired, it brings back memories I treasure, thanks to you lads.
We just missed each other! I was there and nearly contacted you. I absolutely fell in love with Northumberland. So special. I‘ll go back so I‘m thrilled to get your tips here.
@@MemorySeekers yes! I wasn’t going to, but I couldn’t resist. I included the places in my last two videos. I was at Bamburgh Castle and Lindesfarne, but of course my titles are about returning to GB and how tourists are treated. I had an absolutely wonderful time, thank you!
Mesmerizing views & definitely im in love with this place ❤ your visuals & editing really made entire video marvelous 😊 the scenery is so breathtaking 😍 im so thrilled watching such a enchanting beauty & love wait for more.. thanks for sharing 👍
You are SO lucky to be living where these wonderful places are so easily accessible. I'm in California, and it's a MAJOR pain to get to the British Isles. Love these videos ❤
I recently climbed a very similar lighthouse on Tsunoshima island, Shimonoseki, Japan. There are many such lighthouses in Japan built by Richard Henry Brunton who had trained at Stephensons in Edinburgh. Great video, thanks!
The amount of information you share with us about the history of the towns and their buildings is mind blowing! Just wanted you to know how much I enjoy and appreciate the amount of research that goes into your beautifully shot videos!
Thank you so much for noting the effort we put in. It does take a lot of time. Its interesting to find out more than just the surface of a place and then share i through the videos. Seaton Sluice was a prime example, we knew little about it until we arrived and the research that followed the trip. As always thank you for your support that helps keep the channel going.
EXCELLENT!!!!! Your history and drone-work, editing and all -round wonderfulness are doing our old home county proud! And nice weather to get you going... I hope you came away thinking, there's so much more to see - we have to get back - I'd say in September-time! Thank you, do hope this encourages people to visit, and even Newcastle is worth an explore. Thank you!
Oh yes we will have to go back and do some more. 1 week is no enough and i doubt 2 weeks would be either. For the drone shots we introduced we cannot take credit. We get them from a subscription, using them sparingly and to help tell the story where needed. There are so many rules with drones these days I would rather we visit places than muck about with licensing and all that goes with using one. So many places don't allow them now unless they are professionally agreed shots.
Slight correction. The pit disaster was not actually at Hartley but at New Hartley which lies a mile or two inland. A momument to the men and boys lost there is in the nearby St Albans Churchyard at Earsdon. Also Seaton Delaval Hall is well worth a visit. Although the main hall was gutted by fire in 1822, it is now used for art exhibitions and performances. The grounds are very pretty also❤
Another fabulous video, you two are brilliant. What a beautiful area that was. Love to see people who love their own countries. Don’t think there is a. Better channel on RUclips than yours. Thanks for the share. Please take care
Hi Simon & Wills, we love your travel video's. We spent a couple of days in Northumberland back in February as we passed through on our our way to Scotland. We will now through your video see the places we didn't see on our trip.If you get chance, Alnwick is a really pretty town to visit, and Bamburgh Castle is a really interesting place. Thanks for your wonderful video's 😊
Both Alnwick and Bamburgh will be in this series! Along with numerous others in the county. We covered quite a bit of ground in a week! Still need to go back for more! Hope you enjoy the visits.
First the Yorkshire Dales, then the Lake District and now Northumberland....our travel plans are getting longer and longer. We're already looking forward to it and can hardly wait. 😊Tommy from N.Germany
We have not been to the Lake District yet, still on our list. Wales maybe you were thinking. So glad the trips are giving you ideas for places to visit.
We never made it to Berwick on this trip, was just a bit out of our way for the other things we had planned. Certainly want to visit it, the next time we head to Northumberland. So much more to see and do!
Born and bred. Love my county of Northumberland no better place to live ,so full of history and beauty.thanks for sharing you did an excellent video show casing it.
Excellent, as always. I found out that Seaton Delaval Hall was gutted by a fire in 1822 and never recovered its splendour, therefore is not really worth a visit as the house is just a shell. I am sure you must have enjoyed some nice food at the pub! 😋I hope that nothing happened to the horse that killed that stupid woman. 😁😁
Looking forward to your tour of one of our favourite parts of England, Vera country! Lots of wide open spaces and very interesting history. Not been there but read a lot about Northumberland (great name) and watched numerous videos of places of interest .
Another fantastic video, thank you. I appreciate all the research you must do to bring all the history to your videos, I’ve learnt so much watching them.
We have been lots of times over the years always love it you will want to go again go to cragside absolutely lovely so much history first place to have electricity
Lovely video of beautiful Northumberland. We live near to the area and visit often, we love it. I have just found you and look forward to watching your other videos. Have you visited the Lake District, if not, definitely worth a visit.
I’ve been to Whitley Bay several times. One of my favourite places. I’m going back in late August. Never visited the lighthouse befare. Thought I would this time, but it is now closed for much needed restoration.
I live in Whitley Bay on the seafront. I admit I do take the area for granted. Although Whitley Bay is North Tyneside, the border to Northumberland is literally as you leave Whitley Bay into Seaton Sluice. Great video ❤️
@MemorySeekers Thank you for your reply. I was born near Porthcawl and lived there. Whenever we go back, we stay at Nash Point at The Wagon house at the farm in Marcross. You can walk the coastal path past Nash Point lighthouse (you are allowed through the closed gate there). The path continues to St. Donats and further to Llantwit Major. Southerndown also has a scenic walk with Dunraven house ruins n gardens, up some forest steps to stunning cliff views. Also worth a visit is Ewenny pottery and Abbey, Merthyr Mawr village. The sand-dunes. (Lawrence of Arabia filmed here) Ogmore castle (be aware the stepping stones are tidal!) Could I recommend the channel Marcus Walks. He's a Porthcawl local historian, and his videos will show you fabulous places with also the map routes. We will be there again next year! Loving your videos and shall look forward to seeing your videos of my childhood homeground!
Great video .. BUT ! Your thumbnail shows St Mary's Lighthouse, which is actually located in Whitley Bay, within the county of Tyne & Wear, not in Northumberland. I live in Whitley bay and it used to be in Northumberland, but in the early 70s the new county of Tyne & Wear was formed.
Must admit we watched your Alnmouth film before this one, it's certainly a good introduction into your Northumberland holiday, we've stopped off at Northumberlandia a few times now, i wind the wife up by walking up the chesticals and kissing the nipples 🤣🤦, so wrong in many ways.
A well-made film, informative and nicely paced with a well constructive narrative. However I dislike the kangaroo camera work when walking. The technique could be improved. Otherwise a wonderful film and look forward to watching others.

You have a fantastic Voice for Narrating. Very enjoyable and easy to follow. Thank you!
British Gal Watching from America.
Thank you so much, so kind ☺
@Nova2032- I agree! Yes, your voice is brilliant for public speaking!
Agreed!
Fantastic video. This show should be on television. Greetings from Australia.
Thank you Richard so kind as always!
It's like Christmas morning as a kid all over again every time I wake up and see that wonderful notification saying you've posted another video! I can't express how much I love them! Thank you, Thank you!!!!
Thank you for your kind words. ☺
Looks like a very beautiful part of the country. I look forward to seeing the rest of the series 🤩
Looking forward to having you with us! Thank you ☺
You will defo enjoy seeing the rest of my County. I live 1mile from Delaval Hall. My home town is Morpeth. Great video @memorySeekers
Outdid yourself in every way. Amazing ❤. This series will be one to watch many times. I enjoyed very much. Hugs and many blessings.
ahhh thank you so pleased you enjoyed it so much. A cracking start to the series!

@@raymondporter2094 Wonderful, hope you had a great time and the weather was kind! Thank you for watching and your kind words.
My home county. Nice to see it through a tourist's eyes. After living here for 55 years im guilty of taking it all for granted.
Northumberland is the best county in the UK. The most castles, the best coastline and beaches and the incredible National Park too.
Loved this, thank you!
I love that land has been cleaned up from mining and made into conservation for nature to reclaim. I'm really going to enjoy this series, although I love all you do. Take care Simon and Will. =-)
Cycling to work a couple of weeks ago I saw a salmon leap clear out of the Tyne near the town centre.
Than you!! Muchas gracias desde Barcelona.
Que hermoso y apacible lugar caminar solo por éstos lugares tan verdes y con un mar de fondo.
En casi todo el mundo se han cerrado las minas de carbón , ya que murieron muchos hombre cumpliendo su trabajo para mantener a sus familias.
Acá en Chile hace más de 20 años que se cerro la mina de carbón, que estaba bajo el mar.
Saludos a ustedes dos.
Recuerdo el accidente en Chile en la mina de oro y cobre San José. Terrible accidente, increíble lograron salvarlos!
Totally enjoyed your video on Northumberland! You give such good information and great views. Thanks!!
Thank you, so kind☺

Thank you so much, really appreciate the comment, it keeps us going!
So excited about this next series of videos! Looks like it was a beautiful day. Thank you so much! Love y'all🙂
Our first day was pretty lovely with the weather, sadly it did not hold and was a real mixed bag for the rest of the week! Still we managed. ☺
We just missed each other! I was there and nearly contacted you. I absolutely fell in love with Northumberland. So special. I‘ll go back so I‘m thrilled to get your tips here.
Ah hope you had a wonderful time. Did you manage any filming?
@@MemorySeekers yes! I wasn’t going to, but I couldn’t resist. I included the places in my last two videos. I was at Bamburgh Castle and Lindesfarne, but of course my titles are about returning to GB and how tourists are treated. I had an absolutely wonderful time, thank you!

It certainly was a picturesque start to the series. The weather helped a lot, sadly it did not hold for the whole week!
You are SO lucky to be living where these wonderful places are so easily accessible. I'm in California, and it's a MAJOR pain to get to the British Isles. Love these videos ❤
It is certainly quite a journey. Thank you so much for watching.

Very interesting! Father of Japanese lighthouses, I never knew that. thanks!

We have not been to the Lake District yet, still on our list. Wales maybe you were thinking. So glad the trips are giving you ideas for places to visit.
Your visuals are superb I really mean it , such a beautiful place , absolutely loved my “ visit “. Thanks for taking me along .
Thank you so much 🙂
Wonderful as ever. Haven't done the whiteley bay area, just Alnmouth and above. It has really encouraged us to look at including that next time we go
Hopefully lots more ideas to come during the series. Thanks for watching.☺
Oh my gosh you make me want to go back-I lived in Berwick upon Tweed for 8 years-such a lovely place Northumberland!!
We never made it to Berwick on this trip, was just a bit out of our way for the other things we had planned. Certainly want to visit it, the next time we head to Northumberland. So much more to see and do!
Thank you! Wonderful tour and I look forward to more!
Glad you enjoyed it!
❤ I loved this one as always..so well presented ! 🇨🇦
Beautiful place. Thank you. Greatly enjoyed the video. 🙏

Born and bred. Love my county of Northumberland no better place to live ,so full of history and beauty.thanks for sharing you did an excellent video show casing it.
Glad you enjoyed it, lots more to come over the coming weeks. We had a wonderful time visiting.
Excellent, as always. I found out that Seaton Delaval Hall was gutted by a fire in 1822 and never recovered its splendour, therefore is not really worth a visit as the house is just a shell. I am sure you must have enjoyed some nice food at the pub! 😋I hope that nothing happened to the horse that killed that stupid woman. 😁😁
Ah really! I had not researched the hall much. What a shame it was gutted. I had no idea!
Dear Simon &Will ,fantastic Video ,we love it!Simon you should be a Tv Presenter for Travel Magazines ! Just brilliant.😍
Haha, am happy just doing this little channel I think 😂😂☺
Looking forward to your tour of one of our favourite parts of England, Vera country! Lots of wide open spaces and very interesting history. Not been there but read a lot about Northumberland (great name) and watched numerous videos of places of interest .
Hope you enjoy what is to come, 1 week was not enough but we have plenty to entertain you!
Dear friends! You made my SUNDAY with this precious vídeo about Northumberland!!! Thank you one more time!!! Have a very good week! 🙏👍👏🙋🏻♀️🇧🇷
Thank you very much! Glad we gave you a good Sunday!
So enjoy your neration and the research that is done to make these journeys so interesting. Many thanks and look forward to the next adventure.

Lots to come, we had a wonderful time, even if the weather was not always great!
Thank you for this beautiful film!
I am always impressed by the beautiful commentary and hope to see many more films from you.
Thank you very much! Hope you enjoy all the places we have coming up in the series.
It's beautiful place 💚
Priceless. Thank you!
Another fantastic video, thank you. I appreciate all the research you must do to bring all the history to your videos, I’ve learnt so much watching them.
hank you so much for noting the effort we put in. It does take a lot of time ☺
Totally excellent, thanks!
You're very welcome!
We have been lots of times over the years always love it you will want to go again go to cragside absolutely lovely so much history first place to have electricity
Yes indeed I am sure we will be back. Would love to visit Cragside, just not enough time in one week.
Lovely video of beautiful Northumberland. We live near to the area and visit often, we love it. I have just found you and look forward to watching your other videos. Have you visited the Lake District, if not, definitely worth a visit.
We have the Lake District on our list. We will get there one day! Welcome hope you enjoy the series.
I’ve been to Whitley Bay several times. One of my favourite places. I’m going back in late August. Never visited the lighthouse befare. Thought I would this time, but it is now closed for much needed restoration.
Yes I am afraid it is until mid September.
I live in rural northumberland and relish winter when the tourists have gone home. Please keep dogs on leads near our livestock
Thank yuo for Simon and will 👍⚘❤
Thank you for watching.
What a story wow
I live in Whitley Bay on the seafront. I admit I do take the area for granted. Although Whitley Bay is North Tyneside, the border to Northumberland is literally as you leave Whitley Bay into Seaton Sluice. Great video ❤️
Yes we squeezed it into the video as it’s so close to the border. 😊
Another beautiful video and series to look forward to.
Thank you, lots to come. ☺
Dziękuję za film. Jak zawsze super❤👍🤗
Beautiful 🍺🍺
Thanks for the video. Pensacola Fl
Thanks for watching!
I love your videos. You'd love the Vale of Glamorgan coastline.
We hope to do a series on South Wales sometime and have a number of places marked on the coast there! One day we will get there! ☺

A lovely introduction to Northumberland - really enjoyed it
It was lovely bumping into you on our flight to Newcastle! 👍😊
It sure was..we must go for drinks sometime..could chat all night with you both 😃
very beautiful place!😍😍😍
Very Cool 😎
The Pensacola Lighthouse has 177 steps with no outside rail.
I had to look up where that was!
So…??
Was up that way a couple of years ago, hope to get back soon
Get it booked! ☺
❤❤❤❤❤
Great video .. BUT !
Your thumbnail shows St Mary's Lighthouse, which is actually located in Whitley Bay, within the county of Tyne & Wear, not in Northumberland.
I live in Whitley bay and it used to be in Northumberland, but in the early 70s the new county of Tyne & Wear was formed.
Northumberlandia is in Cramlington, not Cramplington. Good video (as a Northumbrian).
Thank you for the correction!
* It's 'Cram-LING-ton' not 'CramP lingron' I grew up there and suffered very little cramp in the process.
Thanks for the correction!
Really Pretty :)
Thank you! 😊
Must admit we watched your Alnmouth film before this one, it's certainly a good introduction into your Northumberland holiday, we've stopped off at Northumberlandia a few times now, i wind the wife up by walking up the chesticals and kissing the nipples 🤣🤦, so wrong in many ways.
A well-made film, informative and nicely paced with a well constructive narrative. However I dislike the kangaroo camera work when walking. The technique could be improved. Otherwise a wonderful film and look forward to watching others.
Thank you for your thoughts.
St. Mary's Lighthouse isn't in Northumberland
By a mile 🙄
Yep - it's in Northumbria but not in Northumberland. Whitley Bay is very much Tyne and Wear.
