National Trust Experiences on Auction

From Tuesday 21st November the National Trust will be auctioning off some fantastic experiences in Northumberland to raise money for the Trust. If you're looking for a unique Christmas present then they don't get much better than this! On auction in Northumberland there is the opportunity to experience:

Farne Islands seabird spectacular
Experience the sights, sounds and smells of one of the greatest seabird colonies in Europe in an exclusive boat-chauffeured view of life on the Farne Islands. See nesting seabirds at your feet, and come within an arm's reach of Puffins, Arctic Terns and Eiders, before a traditional fish and chip supper.

Farne Islands Grey Seal colony
Over 1,300 Grey Seal pups are born on the Farne Islands during autumn, making it England’s largest breeding population. This tour of the colonies will take in the drama of some normally off-limits islands, seeing the trials and tribulations faced by pups with their attentive mothers close at hand.

Host a Georgian evening at Seaton Delaval Hall
Dressed in full Georgian clothing, start with a Champagne reception for eight guests at Seaton Delaval Hall before an authentic Delaval menu for dinner. After you bid your guests farewell, retire to the Bird Bedroom for a once in a lifetime overnight stay.

Cragside
From the top of the tower to the depths of the wine cellar, get into Cragside's nooks and crannies. With an expert to bring the story to life you can wander at your leisure: open drawers, go right into each room, see spectacular views and take a seat as Lord Armstrong’s guests would have done.

Hadrian's Wall
Stay for two nights in one of our newly refurbished cottages along Hadrian's Wall.You’ll have an escorted tour of the Wall with one of our expert staff, followed by an evening of wildlife watching with one of our rangers.
