    This structure is amazing. "The building’s upkeep costs hundreds of thousands of pounds each year and it is entirely dependent on visitors, weddings, events and self-catering accommodation within the estate. Ten private apartments are also rented out to long-term residents, with another let as a holiday home." Can you imaging rolling up to this Castle and telling your date that yeah, this is where I live lol.....

Bamburgh is it’s modern pronunciation….so how the hell is this saying Austrians are British. What’s hard to understand ??? Many modern towns/places today had a totally different name going back over the centuries. Take York in England.

    You're not pronouncing Bamburgh correctly. I grew up there. It is pronounced Bamburra.

    Such a great place RUINED by commercialism. I can understand tourism but the renovated areas catered to commercial profit are tacky
