Holy Island Bus Service

There are regular REGIONAL bus services connecting Newcastle-upon-Tyne with Berwick-upon-Tweed and the intermediate towns and villages. Buses on routes '505' and '515' stop on the A1 trunk road at Beal which is 5 miles from Holy Island village across the tidal causeway.

On certain days a LOCAL bus service (Route 477) operates between Holy Island and Berwick-upon-Tweed.

Schedules are timed, so far as is possible, to interconnect with some (but not all) of the Newcastle/Berwick buses. The service enables bus-travel between Newcastle, Berwick and Holy Island although for Holy Island travellers will have to transfer from/to the regional services at Beal.

To find on which days there is a service and check the bus times, the following two tables must be used.
