10:00 am - 4:00 pm

A whole menagerie of creatures have taken up residence inside Bamburgh Castle for Tails & Tales –  a delightful new indoor sculpture trail inspired by familiar sayings – hidden throughout the Castle’s rooms.

Wander through Bamburgh Castle and discover a trail of surprising, theatrical installations inspired by well-known idioms and phrases. From a tiger leaping through flaming hoops and a proud peacock in full display, to curious woodland creatures, balancing acts and playful puppetry, each room reveals a new scene packed with character, craft and humour.

Follow the trail and see if you can uncover the phrases behind each character.

Suitable for all ages. Included with general admission.
