All about AmbleAmble is a quaint fishing village and working port situated just 1 mile south of Warkworth Village. With a good range of small, mostly independent shops, including a great bakery, butchers, Italian restaurant and one of the best fish and chip shops in the North East, it has much to offer. There's an interesting Sunday market held every week on the old quayside, which is lovely to wander around. The views from the quayside are spectacular - of the estuary, impressive Warkworth Castle, Coquet Island and of course the sea.
Coquet Island
Lying just one mile off the coast at Amble, Coquet Island is an RSPB nature reserve. It is a safe haven for over 30,000 pairs of seabirds, some who travel from Africa to nest there.
