Explore Hadrian's Wall and have the perfect day out by visiting Roman Vindolanda Fort & Museum and the Roman Army Museum & Magna Fort. Immerse yourself in Roman life on the frontier 2000 years ago.
There’s lots of suggestions here for family days out and explorers. In addition to the Roman sites there are sandy beaches, lovely seaside towns, local attractions and stunning views across the Solway to Scotland and to the Isle of Man.
If you’re a family group with kids of up to around 14 and staying in Northumberland or near Newcastle, this is for you. The central section of Hadrian’s Wall (between Corbridge and Greenhead) is packed with Roman attractions.
If you’re a family group with kids of up to around 14, and staying in Newcastle, this is just the ticket! Tyneside has three family friendly museums and some amazing full size reconstructions of Roman buildings, taking you back 2000 years.
This Cumbrian Itinerary offers a good overview of the western-most stretch of Hadrian’s Wall. However, it’s by no means exhaustive – this vast, beautiful section of history-soaked landscape deserves many repeat visits.
