The crab sandwiches at The Ship in Seahouses are renowned.
Bamburgh Castle is well worth a walk round.
Dunstanburgh Castle ditto and is a nice gentle walk along the coast from Craster.
There's a pub opposite Robson's smokehouse in Craster that serves good seafood.

Oh, don't forget that Lindisfarne gets cut off by the tide twice a day.

And everyone seems to be called Robson up there.

Cheers guys , really appreciate all the info

Anyone ever been to Cuba.. More specifically Cayo Coco?
Thoughts on Cuba and place.. things to do etc.

Looking at going to Copenhagen in December for a city break/long weekend. How expensive is it to stay there and then when you are out and about??

mega expensive mate and the Mermaid is a big let-down - the kids (and bigger kids ! ) would enjoy the Tivoli though - friendly people who all speak better english than us !

When you say mega?? To stay? Or out and about to eat and drink? Or both? Flights we are looking at are cheap, but just wondering how much spending money to take with us that all...

Its well over ten years since I went to Copenhagen and we stayed in a Travel Lodge style hotel (although it was more like a hostel with four bunks per room) just outside of the city centre so perhaps not a fair comparison.

The prices of beer and food were expensive but as always you pick and choose, we only stayed one night and ate in a chinese restaurant from a fixed buffet menu so that wasn't over-expensive, I seem to recall that beer was though !

Don't forget the Carlsberg brewery tour if you're looking for things to do, they have a pretty good visitor centre and you get to tour the whole brewery over two sites, theres more to Carlsberg than the watery stuff they sell here and at the end of the tour you get to sample several of their brews - bloody expensive in their gift shop though

Is Barcelona any good, is there anything to do there ?

Can't speak for beer prices being a teetotaller an all. But if you love your Naval history then it's a great place to visit. The Royal Danish Naval Museum is excellent. And as with all Northern European cities Copenhagen is immaculately spotless. I'd also recommend a tour of the magnificent harbour.

As for accommodation prices, you get what you pay for as always. In saying that, lower star ratings seem of a higher standard in Northern Europe in contrast to those of Eastern and Southern Europe from my experiences.

With a name like El Barbudo, it'd be a shame if I'd never been to Cuba.
(Guevara, the Castros and the rest of the revolutionaries were known as Los Barbudos when they lived in the jungle and didn't shave).

Cayo Coco barely existed when I went to Cuba in the mid-1990's and it wasn't one of the places I visited but I believe it's a purpose-built resort, so you're not going to see "real" Cuba there but, from friends who have been, I understand that you can get guided day-trips to Havana etc.

We booked and travelled independently to get around Cuba and saw a fair bit that way, and that method had its advantages and disadvantages.
I'm guessing though, that if you're thinking of Cayo Coco, you're inclining towards a nice relaxed, all-inclusive, beach holiday?
From what I hear that's what you get there.
