Holy Island - Lindisfarne Castle

The spectacular Lindisfarne Castle is located on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne in the North Sea, off the coast of Northumberland in England. You can reach Holy Island through a road that gets covered by the tides of the North Sea for a few hours twice each day. Lindisfarne Castle was built in the mid-1500s to protect the North of England from incursions by the Scots. It sits on top of a volcanic plug known as Beblowe Crag.
