S.O.U.L. NEWS ~ SAVE OUR UNSPOILED LANDSCAPE

The Public Enquiry began at The Maltings, Berwick upon Tweed, on Wednesday 6th May 2009 and will be concluded on Monday 21st June, when closing submissions will be given from noon.

For more information, visit the News & Local Events Page or Click Here to visit the S.O.U.L website. 

Don't allow our beautiful countryside to be unnecessarily and permanently defaced so that a bunch of uncaring, mercenary FOREIGN pariahs can get richer at our expense.

************

Lowick Village is located on the B6353, just 4 miles West of the main A1 Road, 10 miles South of the Historical Town of Berwick upon Tweed, 7 miles inland of Holy Island, and 9 miles North of Wooler Town, known as:

"The Gateway to The Cheviots"

The village is conveniently and centrally situated for Visitors in an area of rugged, natural beauty  which abounds with many Historical Sites and Places of Interest.

Lowick Village has many amenities and facilities.  At the crossroads, in the centre of the village, you will find The Lowick Village Store, which offers a wide range of quality, sensibly priced groceries.  You can check the opening times on the 'News and Local Events' page along with other information about 'what's on' in the village.

You can also 'Click Here' to visit the Lowick Parish Council website.

The recently created Lowicknet Photo Gallery website provides comprehensive views of Lowick Village, present and past, together with images of surrounding area (updated August 2008).

Bell's Mini-Bus Service is a reliable, family run business that is conveniently based in Lowick Village.

There are two Inns within the village itself.  The White Swan Inn is in the centre of the village and has a Bar, Dining Room and Bed and Breakfast accommodation.  The Black Bull Inn, is at the west end of the village and has a Bar, Restaurant, Lounge and Pool Room, together with Bed and Breakfast accommodation.  For further information or details of forthcoming events, visit the 'News & Local Events' page.

The Barn at Beal is located on the road from the A1 to Holy Island and serves excellent home-made mid-day and evening meals in its well appointed restaurant, which has an impressive view of the coast and Holy Island.  It is also a first class Visitor and 'Birds of Prey' Centre as well as providing camping facilities.

The Lindisfarne Inn is in the neighboring village of Beal on the A1 road, at the junction leading to Holy Island.  It has a Bar, Lounge and Restaurant, serving excellent, well priced meals, with an adjoining Lodge consisting of 21 bedrooms.  Please Note: The Lindisfarne Inn do not accept bookings for meals and stop cooking at 9pm.  If there is a 'wait time' or delay in serving your meal and this takes it past 9pm, you will not be served and residents take priority.

Bookless Motors, a vehicle workshop and an exceptionally well stocked vehicle and hardware store is a short distance along the Main Street to the West of the crossroads.

St. John the Baptist Church is located at the West end of the village and the times of the Church of England and Roman Catholic services are shown on the 'News & Local Events' page, along with the times for the Church of Scotland services, which are held in the Lowick Village Hall.

Coarse Fishing is available in a private, well stocked mini-lake in the grounds of Northfield Old Cottage on the outskirts of the village.

  Accommodation
Within the village and throughout the area there is a wide range of excellent accommodation to suit everyone, with large Hotels, (many having a 'Tale or Two' to tell), Self-Catering holiday cottages and small, friendly Bed & Breakfasts.  Several links can be found on the
'Places to Stay' page of this site and the 'Accommodation' section of my 'BcBiz' website, which also has a page providing details of Local Public Transport.

 A much more comprehensive list of accommodation can be found by visiting the 'Lindsifarne Accommodation' webpage, courtesy of Mr. Geoff Porter, the Lindisfarne Webmaster, which can also be accessed from the 'Northumbria Villages' page of this site.  This site also provides details of the Holy Island Tide Tables.

      The 'BcBiz' website also has links to Local Amenities, Services and Businesses and is available to any suitable local organisations who may wish to be included.

All the links to the various websites, commercial or otherwise, are there to provide information on the locale` and the services which are available, but I cannot take responsibility for their content.  This is a completely free, non-profit making website, which has been created solely for the benefit of my village, the local community, the surrounding area, and anyone who may have an interest or would like to visit a particularly beautiful and friendly part of the United Kingdom.  I also hope to be able to keep The 'News & Local Events' page updated on a regular basis with information of what's going on in the area.

Please remember to: "Sign The Guestbook"

Please Note:  The above invitation does not apply to those pathetic, retarded morons who regularly attempt to use my guestbook for their tiresome and often sick advertising.  I check it and clear out the rubbish almost every day, to ensure that those sad, small minded and unfulfilled rejects of society are wasting their pointless and unproductive time.

Thankfully, I have a very patient and tolerant nature.
