St Oswald’s Way

St Oswald’s Way: Day 6 – Bamburgh to Fenwick

Dec 19, 2015Apr 25, 2019 / David Marsden / 13 Comments

(24th March 2014 - 12 miles + 1 mile off route) Studying the map, and between mouthfuls of a 'Four In A Bed' winning breakfast, we discussed the day's walk.  Neither Jim, Tracy nor I fancied going back down the road into Bamburgh and plumped instead on cutting across country on a lane through sheep … Continue reading St Oswald’s Way: Day 6 – Bamburgh to Fenwick

St Oswald’s Way: Day 5 – Embleton to Bamburgh

Dec 2, 2015Apr 25, 2019 / David Marsden / 11 Comments

(23rd March 2014 - 11 miles including 2 miles off-route) After an all right breakfast Jim, Tracy and I left The Blue Bell Inn - for ever - and set out on our short day's walk to Bamburgh. We passed quickly, quietly, hobbit-like through little Embleton, crossed the local golf course and returned to the … Continue reading St Oswald’s Way: Day 5 – Embleton to Bamburgh

St Oswald’s Way: Day 4 – Warkworth to Embleton

Oct 31, 2015Apr 25, 2019 / David Marsden / 9 Comments

(22nd March 2014 - 17 miles + 2 miles off route) Westrigg was one of the best B&B's on my walk (with some stiff competition) and served up such a damn fine breakfast that we happy three couldn't stop eating.  When we finally did and groaned, "Enough already," struggled to our feet, waddled out of … Continue reading St Oswald’s Way: Day 4 – Warkworth to Embleton

St Oswald’s Way: Day 3 – Rothbury to Warkworth

Sep 5, 2015Jun 10, 2019 / David Marsden / 18 Comments

(21st March 2014 - 18 miles) I had a spring in my step as I left 'The Queen's Head,' paused for a little window-shopping, picked up some lunch and crossed the bridge over the River Coquet. On a warm, sunny morning, I had the fine prospect of several hours riverside walking.  And at day's end, … Continue reading St Oswald’s Way: Day 3 – Rothbury to Warkworth

St Oswald’s Way: Day 2 – Kirkwhelpington to Rothbury

May 24, 2015Apr 24, 2019 / David Marsden / 6 Comments

  (20th March 2014 - 15 miles) Today would be a sun-no-show.  There were only three sunless days on my 220-mile trail but, with a sorry lack of prescience, I worried when I awoke to one that the rest of my holiday would be overcast and rainy.  I needn't have: after today, fine weather returned.  … Continue reading St Oswald’s Way: Day 2 – Kirkwhelpington to Rothbury

The Romantic Road: Cycling Across Bavaria

The Romantic Road: Cycling Across Bavaria

Can you believe it’s been over six years since Jim and I cycled along the Rhine from Mainz to Cologne? Why, we were practically children. On that occasion it was the sheer number and variety of castles that stick in my mind. And on the cycling holiday before that, it is the vast, resinous pine […]

Three Simple Ways To Encourage Insects Into Your Garden

Three Simple Ways To Encourage Insects Into Your Garden

I’ve always thought that if I can entice insects and wildlife into my garden, then well… I’m doing something right; even if I don’t always notice them, I’m doing something right. Of course, we all know that insect numbers are falling but, as depressing as that is, here are three simple steps we can take […]
