From the stunning cites like Rome, coastal regions like Cinque Terre and the incredible villages in southern regions, Italy is one of the most diverse European countries to visit.

After spending the day on Farne Island the day before, we decided to start our day nice and chilled by visiting the Holy Island of Lindisfarne.  Now, when you’re visiting the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, you have to pay special attention to tides.

There’s definitely something about in the air when you’re by the seaside that leaves you absolutely knackered by the end of the day.
