After the storm on the #Northumberland coast at Howick. The wind was still gusting around 50mph but with the turning tide the sea settled into an unnatural calmness, overlaid with a strangely hypnotic wave pattern.
Snowy scenes at Lilidorei at @AlnwickGarden. Opening this Spring at a cost of £15.5 million. It will be the largest play structure, of its kinn in the world. With an expected 280,000 visitors this year. This will be another great reason to visit Alnwick & explore the town too.
Lots of Guillemots at the Farnes today. They will not stay for long as they are just checking out their ledges ready for the breeding season but it's lovely to see them.
2022 was a very full and successful year for us at #Swansdown and we look forward to more guests, old and new in 2023. Preparations for our regular renovations about to start to keep that 5* Gold!
