Ingram Café and Visitor Centre

Highlight • Rest Area

Iconic cafe, absolutly worth the out and back ride to find it if you're on a road bike. The staff are brilliant and the cakes, hot drinks, scones and soup are all well made and tasty.
Very safe for your bike if you sit inside or out as it's the end of the road and there won't be many people here unless you time it to coincide with one of the races that start here.

Ingram Village and St Michael and All Angels Church

Highlight • Bridge

Ingram is a small quaint village that has existed since pre-Saxon times and sits in the Breamish Valley where the River Breamish widens out into fields and haughland.

The Breamish Valley (and Ingram in particular) is renowned for its natural beauty and sites of archaeological and historical significance. There are Iron Age hill forts to find with various walks signposted, large open spaces to picnic by the river and wonderful views of the surrounding hills. If you want to walk, relax with a picnic or cycle there are many routes and spaces available to you.

Being part of Northumberland National Park there’s also a visitor information board near the bridge, and car parking areas at various points in the valley.
