You will come across Felton on the
St Oswald's Way walking route between the
Warkworth and
Rothbury stage. Felton is a great place to take a break from the gruelling 18 mile walk where you can rest and replenish yourself at the Northumberland Arms. However, if you're just looking for a quick pit stop then
The Running Fox is a great place to refuel with their
artisan bakery and famous afternoon teas.
You will find old and relatively new in the main hub of Felton with two bridges in close proximity of each other that transport you across the River Coquet. The old bridge is pedestrianised and a building of architectural and
historic interest and is used today for local community events. The new replacement bridge was constructed in 1926 and although not as attractive as the old bridge is still a grade II listed building.
Fishing and
walking are popular along the River Coquet and can be accessed easily via the centre of the village located close to the pub and bakery. Walk in the opposite direction and you will find the church of St Michael and All Angels which is worth a visit on the St Oswald's Way route.
