Great little trail although hard to follow around a quarry. Nice wild camping options above the border.
Howick and Cullernose Point from Craster

Easy walk straight from the car park. First half over good footpaths, fields, and farm tracks to Howick Gardens. Minor road to the coast, and back along cliff paths to Craster village. Kipper rolls in the cabin at the car park entrance finishes the walk!
Holy Island and Lindisfarne Castle Circular
