Mizen Head

Bamburgh's best place to eat and/or stay is this stunning restaurant with rooms. Local seafood – lobster, mussels, crab, salmon, squid and more – is the kitchen's speciality, along with chargrilled steaks. Its 11 rooms with chequered fabrics and black-and-white coastal prints are light, bright and spacious (doubles from £98). Switched-on staff know their stuff.
