The White Swan sits in the historic village of Lowick, surrounded by some of Northumberland’s most iconic places. Holy Island and Lindisfarne Castle, the dramatic Bamburgh Castle, and miles of unspoilt coastline are all just a short drive away. We’re also close to the market town of Berwick‑upon‑Tweed, with its Elizabethan walls, riverside walks and rich history.

We’re proud to be a small, independent inn that values genuine hospitality. Our team knows the area well and is always happy to point guests toward the best walks, beaches, and hidden corners of Northumberland. We believe in honest cooking, relaxed service, and creating a place where locals and visitors feel equally at ease.

St Cuthbert’s Way is a 62‑mile long‑distance trail running from Melrose in the Scottish Borders to Holy Island. The route passes close to Lowick, making The White Swan a convenient base for walkers tackling the final stretch toward Lindisfarne. We can also help with practicalities, including arranging local transport, pick‑ups or drop‑offs along the way.

A public EV charging point is available right here in the village, making it easy for guests to top up while they explore. You’ll also find an excellent corner shop just opposite, perfect for everyday essentials. We’re happy to prepare packed lunches for days out, and breakfast is served each morning from 8.00 to 9.30am.
