North Pennines

The North Pennines is the tour for you to join our experienced wildlife and birdwatching guide to search for Black Grouse, Red Grouse, wild flowers and the other wildlife of the vast expanse of moorland and the beautiful river valleys of southwest Northumberland, Upper Teesdale and Weardale. Springtime on the moors, with displaying wading birds, is one of the best birdwatching experiences that you can have anywhere in the country.

Your Prestige Tour will begin from a location of your choice, and is an exclusive tour just for two, including our Prestige Northumbrian picnic. Safari Days start from your location in the North Pennines area, or Hexham, which can be reached by public transport.

If you’re looking for holiday accommodation that’s ideal for our North Pennines tours then we recommend Saughy Rigg Farm at Twice Brewed, Willowford in Gilsland, Four Wynds in Greenhead and The Hytte near Corbridge.

We really enjoyed our trip yesterday. Your local knowledge meant you knew where to go to find Black Grouse and Golden Plover, our particular requests. You shared your knowledge of bird calls with enthusiasm...We enjoyed too the time you took to look at frogs and hares we spotted from the high vantage of the Land Rover...just right for a special birthday treat!
