Holy Island, which is separated from the mainland, is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty - the tides cut off the island for a period every day, subject to incoming tides.

Holy Island, which is known as Lindisfarne, dates back in its history to the 6th Century AD, when it was visited by Saints Aidan, Cuthbert, Eadfrith and Eadberht of Lindisfarne. The original island was home to a Monastery and later destroyed in Victorian times, but re-established as a Priory following the Norman Conquest of England. The Parish Church dates back to 635 AD and was restored in 1860. Lindisfarne Castle is a particularly impressive building, and the area is known for its historical tourism and bird watching.
