Location Map

Bamburgh Castle is probably the finest castle in England. It is perched on a basalt outcrop on the very edge of the North Sea at Bamburgh, Northumberland. It commands stunning views of the Farne Islands, Holy Island and landward to the Cheviot Hills. The castle has been extensively restored, first by Lord Crewe in the 1750’s and more recently by the first Lord Armstrong at the end of the 19th century. The castle continues to be the home of the Armstrong family.

Bamburgh Castle is very easily accessible from the A1, close to Seahouses and has ample parking, the car park charge is very reasonable. The Castle itself is remarkable and has an absolutely fascinating history. You can see lots of interesting artefacts from WW2 and the views to Holy Island are truly incredible. There are plenty of fun activities to keep the children amused and there is a lovely coffee shop for light refreshment and snack.
