Sporting Attractions and Activities:
  • Cycling : The route of the Pennine Cycleway runs very close to Burnfoot – for good reason due to the roads being so quiet. There are plenty of relaxing circular cycling routes from Burnfoot, and the route to the Barrowburn Tea Room makes for a very pleasant day’s cycling with plenty of picturesque places to stop and rest beyond Alwinton.

  • Alnmouth Golf Club: For some Horse Riding try Shipley Lane Equestrian Centre. Ride their quality school horses and ponies and ook a lesson or why not bring the whole family and enjoy a guided ride along the excellent bridleways? More experienced riders can have a day’s trail ride and take a picnic. Visit website
  • Fishing : The River Coquet (pronounced Coe-cut) – one of England’s finest salmon and sea trout rivers. Spring and Autumn runs see these incredible fish fighting their way past Burnfoot to their spawning grounds further upriver. These are great times to see them leaping out of the water – especially at the fish pass between Burnfoot and the village. Visit website
