9. Pick your own pumpkin
What more festive way to get in the autumnal spirit than by going pumpkin picking? Brocksbushes Farm offers fantastic fruit picking opportunities throughout the year, and throughout October their pumpkin patch is the star of the show. This year, they have expanded the experience as they have more pumpkins, an extra pumpkin patch and will host pumpkin carving activities in their marquee. Pre-booking is essential, so head to their website and sign up to their newsletter to be the first to hear when tickets are available. Photo: Lisa Ferguson
10. Save it for a rainy day
We can’t ignore the fact that autumn comes with the potential for some drizzly weather. If you wake up to the somewhat comforting sound of rain tapping at your window, head to one of Northumberland’s indoor attractions. Spell-binding Bamburgh Castle, beautiful Belsay Hall, Castle and Gardens, enchanting Cragside House, Gardens and Estate and more all have weekend opening hours throughout November and December. Each have stunning interiors with rich historical significance to admire and, if the sky does clear, their gardens are worth a wander. Photo: Jane Coltman
