History Walks or History Evening for Dunstan Hall
Would you enjoy a walk learning about the history of the area? Your guide studied both archeology and geology at Uni and the walks explore the history, nature and landscapes of the Northumberland coast. You'll hear a wealth of stories centered around the local castles and communities spanning recent and ancient history. Here's what other people say ".... the walk was most informative, easy paced and enjoyable" If you're staying at Dunstan Hall, we can organise a history 'evening' to learn about the local history and more specifically that of Dunstan Hall. Let us know if you're interested before your visit and we can get things arranged for you.

Andy and Margaret Watchorn have many years experience and perform regularly throughout Northumberland, other parts of the UK and Europe. They have had a special connection with Dunstan Hall for over twenty five years, having played for concerts and private functions for previous owners.
