Stage 3: Craster to Seahouses

16kms or 10 miles

Stage three starts in Craster and heads North along the rocky cliffs towards Dunstanburgh Castle. The Guardian Newspaper rates this stretch of coast as one of the top ten coastal walks in the UK and it's easy to see why. This is how they described it: 

"The seacliffs are excellent and the ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle summon up every possible image of Macbeth, Richard the Lionheart and all those other mighty chaps. Find particularly interesting birdlife on the cliffs and at Newton beach and Newton Pool nature reserve"
