Come to me, all who are weary and whose load is heavy - I will give you rest." - Matthew 11-28

The Holy Island of Lindisfarne 
 In 635AD St. Aidan came from Iona and chose to found his monastery on Lindisfarne. The Christian message flourished here and spread throughout the world. 
 However Holy Island is not only a centre of pilgrimage. Its tranquillity, spirituality and scenic beauty attracts a multitude of visitors to its shores every year. Undoubtedly, it is the jewel in the crown of Northumbria.
