Northumberland Coast

Ellie Harrison goes on a journey down the remote Northumberland coast.

En route, she discovers how painter LS Lowry found inspiration at the border town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, visits the holy island of Lindisfarne, and admires the area's fabulous castles and deserted beaches. She ends her journey by taking a sea trip in a catamaran.

Along the way, Ellie looks back on the best of the BBC's rural programmes from this beautiful part of the world.
