Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
It's not every day you wake up to castle views, but then again, not every home is as fabulously located as this one. Smack-dab in the heart of Bamburgh, you'll be treated to fantastic panoramas of the town's historic landmark from the main bedroom, living room and suntrap garden. How's that for a view? When you're not feasting your eyes upon the scenery, chances are, you'll be holed up in the cosy living area with a glass of wine in front of the fire. Board games, books and a library of DVDs will stave off boredom on rainy days while summer sunshine calls for alfresco meals in the garden – Bamburgh Castle, of course, as your backdrop. As for location, you can't get much better. Front Street is mere moments from your doorstep, with a bevvy of shops, pubs and restaurants to discover. 500 yards away lies the beach, where you can sprawl out on the golden sand and dip your toes in the waves. Whether you're after oceanfront walks and countryside cycling or rounds of golf and spots of birdwatching, there's something for everyone on the Northumberland coast.
