    The Bradford, Bamburgh, and Seahouses Circular Walk is a lengthy adventure in Northumberland that features a mixture of countryside and coastal terrain. While out walking the trail, you will traverse the countryside towards Budle Bay in order to follow the coast, passing by the Norman-Era Bamburgh Castle and the village of Seahouses, before eventually traversing the countryside on the return. Walkers should take note that this is a long and demanding route; however, the stunning views of the sea are more than worth the required effort.
