    Fish 'n castles

    December 5, 2023 in England ⋅ ⛅ 0 °C

    Today we left early and set off to Bamburgh Castle. This 11th century castle was a former Royal Palace, Norman stronghold, crown residence, and has now been recreated by the engineer William Armstrong (who helped design and build Spitfires).

    The castle spans across 9 acres of land and was absolutely stunning, we took our time exploring the staterooms, armoury, dungeon as well as the aviation museum on the grounds.

    After too much time at the castle we decided to drive to the next town over, Seahouses. Where we enjoyed our first UK fish and chips by the beach. Between us we had Haddock and chips, battered spam, a pickled egg, and a chip butty.

    Once we got back to the accommodation we spent the night booking our next few stays, and we realised we only have under a week of accommodation not booked! Which means our trip is so close to coming to an end 😭
