Perched on the Northumberland coastline, Bamburgh Castle has to be one of the most dramatic, beautiful buildings in England. The castle itself is open to visitors to explore the history of the site as well as providing the opportunity to see archaelogical excavations in progress.
However, to experience the true beauty of this place, take a walk along the often deserted beach (coats and scarves are a must!). Looking back to see the castle standing proud above the sand dunes is a breathtaking sight.
And the nearby town of Seahouses offers delicious fish and chips at the end of the day.
