Northumberland
is home to some of the most spectacular national parks in the UK, and it was
fantastic to see National Parks minister Lord Gardiner visit the county this
week to mark National Parks week. Last year a record 1.5 million people visited
Northumberland National Park, bringing £80 million to the economy. Lord
Gardiner said “with its secluded valleys, clear night skies and rare wildlife,
Northumberland National Park is one of our most tranquil and picturesque
landscapes”, and with attractions like Hadrian’s Wall and The Sill, I would
encourage everyone to enjoy the nature and outdoors at Northumberland National
Park. We know how great Northumberland is- it’s great to see that everyone else
is finding out too!
