Northumberland Trip - Day 1

We left just before 10am to head south. Northumberland Council have a scheme where you can stay overnight in certain car parks for £12 per night, so we'd booked into Bamburgh Castle car park. We also had to pay for a day ticket while we were out walking though.

After parking we walked past the castle onto the beach, which runs all the way down to Seahouses.

We walked down the beach for a while, Oscar loved being off lead and was pretty well behaved.



We could see out to the Farne Islands.

We turned around and headed north past Bamburgh again, and then round the headland into Budle Bay. It was very pretty, and much quieter than the main beach.



We decided to keep walking towards Belford, then catch a bus back to Bamburgh. The path went away from the bay and inland, along some quiet roads and across fields.

We caught a bus from near the old station, and got dropped off in the centre of town.

We went back to the van. Later we had pizza for dinner.
