Within an hour's drive of Newcastle and boasting 27 miles of shoreline and many acres of forest, Kielder can provide just about anything the lover of outdoor pursuits might want. On the water you can go rowing, canoeing, or yachting. Sailing lessons are available to absolute beginners, and all equipment is provided. If angling is your pleasure then you can fish from the shore or from a boat - short term fishing permits are available. For drier pursuits the forest has many waymarked trails suitable for horse or cycle riders, and once again equipment can be hired locally. A number of lakeside cabins are available. Team building sessions, and other outdoor activities can be organised for businesses. Disabled access is available to many areas. Not easily accessible by public transport.
