Bamburgh, with
it's fine
village green,
is a small
coastal
settlement with
Bamburgh Castle
at it's heart.
Once home to the
Kings of
Northumberland,
the castle
looking across
the dunes and
the sea to the
Farne Islands is
one of the
finest examples
in Britain. The
Norman church,
founded in 547,
in the village
is also well
worth a look.
Within the
village, you
will find a
number of pubs
and an
assortment of
shops. Venture
out of the
village and with
it's long
beaches,
breathtaking
countryside and
the Farne
Islands close
by, there is
much to see and
do whatever your
choice of
country pursuit. |
