A place called Holy Island has gotta be pretty, well, holy, right?!⁠
⁠
In the case of Holy Island and Lindisfarne, it certainly lives up to its name. But irrespective of your religious beliefs, this sacred ground provides ample reasons why it should be on your bucket list when visiting the area.⁠
⁠
📍 Location: Holy Island, AKA, Lindisfarne, is a coastal island off the shore of Northumberland in the Scottish Borders region of the UK, with historical relevance dating back to the 6th century AD.⁠
⁠
🏰 History: Lindisfarne is considered one of the holiest lands in the UK, founded by St. Aidan, who converted the Northumbrian populace to Christianity. Despite Viking invasions and the Dissolution of the Monasteries, it remains a place of great historical significance.⁠
⁠
🚗 Accessibility: Unlike most islands, Lindisfarne is accessible from the mainland by car when the tide is low, thanks to a causeway.⁠
