Newcastle to Edinburgh
 
My daughters are traveling in June from Newcastle Upon Tyne to Edinburgh. They want to stop and see the Bamburgh Castle. Any suggestions on best bus or train to take from Newcastle Upon Tyne to Edinburgh with a couple of stops along the way to sightsee? Any idea of cost?

Have you done any research yourself?

It certainly seems like you have not.

They're only 120 miles apart. You've already gotten a plethora of answers on your post of Jan 19. What else are you looking for?

Micromanaging your daughters from 3,000 miles away?

Places to visit include Alnwick (with a youth hostel to stay), Seahouses (for a trip to the Farne Islands), Holy Island, and Berwick upon Tweed.

Bus 253 runs between Berwick and Edinburgh (or take the train)

Your daughter should visit the tourist information centre in Newcastle for all the up to date information she/you could ever wish for.
