Inner Farne Lighthouse
The Farne islands lie off of the Northumbrian coast. Once the home to monks and hermits, it is now a nature reserve and managed by National Trust.
Sue and I took a boat trip around the islands and got great views of the seabirds nesting on the cliffs and the Seals basking on the rocks.
