About Kielder
How to get there:
Kielder is part of Kielder. Kielder Village, Bellingham, Hexham, Newcastle, Jedburgh, and Hawick are the nearest towns or villages.
From the nearby villages of Bellingham and Newcastleton follow signs to Kielder Water and Forest Park which will take you onto the C200 - the road which runs adjacent to the southern shore of Kielder Water.
Access to the forest can be gained from a number of points along the C200, alternatively continue to Kielder Castle Forest Park Centre at the northern end of Kielder Water.
By Public Transport
Reaching Kielder Castle by public transport is not straightforward. The only daily direct service is by Postbus from Hexham (via Bellingham).
At weekends during the summer, the ‘Kielder Bus’ (service number 714, Arriva) runs a morning service between the Metro Centre and Kielder village, returning late afternoon.
