Please do join us on one of our self guided walking holiday along the stunning St Cuthbert's Way, with Shepherds Walks Holidays
Walking St. Cuthbert's Way
St. Cuthbert’s Way is a verdant and inspiring 62-mile hiking path from Melrose in the Borders region of Scotland to Lindisfarne (Holy Island) on the coast of North East England.
In the year 665 the Scottish monk Cuthbert made a pilgrimage from Melrose to Lindisfarne where he joined a remote priory, or church, in the Kingdom of Northumberland. When he died about 20 years later, he was much loved and revered, had been made the Bishop of the priory, had traveled widely to spread the Gospel, but had decided to return to be a lowly monk and recluse on an island.
By 400 years later the cult of the charismatic Saint Cuthbert was significant enough to have decisively influenced the full establishment of Christianity in England.
Saint Cuthbert’s Way follows in his footsteps.

The complete St. Cuthbert's Way ©
This is a 62 mile (100km) walk from Melrose in the Scottish Borders to Holy Island (or Lindisfarne) off the Northumbrian coast. It forms part of the European E2 route and was created in 1996 to commemorate the life of Saint Cuthbert who lived and worked in the borders. I walked the route in 4.5 days staying over at Melrose, Jedfoot, Kirk Yetholm, Wooler and Fenwick. I had all four seasons in terms of weather during the walk. For information I used the Cicerone guide to this route and the Harvey strip map.
Wikipedia describes Cuthbert as a 7th century saint and native of the Borders who spent his life in the service of the church. He began his work at Melrose Abbey. He achieved the status of Bishop, and when he died he was buried on Holy Island. He was called a saint eleven years after his death, when his coffin was opened and his remains found to be perfectly preserved.
Wherever you go stay safe, plan ahead, let people know where you are going, take maps & compass with your gps and follow the country code.

Belford & St. Cuthbert's Cave circular, North Northumberland. ©
A 9.5 mile figure of 8 walk which starts in Belford heading out on the footpath to Swinhoe Farm and up Virgin Hill to join St Cuthbert's way briefly before turning along the track through a plantation and around Copsey Hill to Holburn where you turn along the side of Greensheen hill to St. Cuthbert's cave wood. The cave is said to be a resting place for St. Cuthbert's remains on the journey from Lindisfarne to Melrose in 875 a.d. The route then goes across fields to cross the outgoing track at Swinhoe Farm and back to Belford, this time via Square wood, Craggyhall and Westhall.

St. Cuthbert's Cave (29th May 2017)
29th May 2017
Half term holidays upon us, so I took my daughter to see St Cuthbert's Cave where I told her the story about the Lindisfarne monks who sheltered there after fleeing the Viking raids with the bones of St Cuthbert. I particularly told her the story concerning one novice monk that helped carry the bones to their eventual resting place in Durham and how he was given the name Dodd, of which all Dodd's are supposedly descended. My grandmother being a Dodd added some interest to the story.
For those who do not know the tale. The monks of Lindisfarne took shelter in what is now named St Cuthbert's cave after the viking raids. With them, they carried the bones of St Cuthbert and traveled the old kingdom of Northumberland with the bones for a number of years before finally settling at Durham. The bones are now enshrined in Durham Cathedral behind the main altar. On the search for a new home, the monks eventually just numbered four, of which at least one was a novice called Eilaf who later left service. One day the monks found themselves out in the wilds and as it was getting dark chose to set up camp. Three monks went looking for fire wood leaving the fourth in charge of the bones, valuables, and food. While the three monks were away, the fourth decided to help himself to the food supplies. When the other monks returned, he excused himself to go to the toilet in the bushes and while he was away, the 3 monks discovered his crime and prayed to God that he be punished. Just then a fox leapt from the bushes where the monk had gone and the 3 monks believed that God had punished the 4th monk by turning him into a dodd (fox). The monks prayed for Eilaf's forgiveness and he miraculously returned from the bushes as the monk they knew. From that day forth he was given the surname Dodd and all Dodds are supposedly descended from Eilaf.
