Falstone, near Kielder

Circled by the enchanted woodlands of Kielder Water & Forest Park, the village of Falstone is less than a mile from the great reservoir itself with its raft of exciting water sports and activities.

For children – and those young at heart – Falstone’s epic play park is a must-visit attraction. Playing out across 1.5 acres, it’s a child’s dream adventure park with fun-generating activities from an aerial zip wire run way, tennis courts and bouldering to willow igloos, carved wooden animals plus swings and slides too. 

Take a family stroll around the Riverside path and look out for the mysterious 18th century gravestone of a girl holding hands with a skeleton in the churchyard.

The annual Falstone Border Shepherds Show is a celebration of traditional rural Northumberland life. Enjoy a mix of sheepdog trials, agricultural classes and local food and crafts at this classic Northumberland event.
