Description
The Chimney is an impressive period holiday home resting near Bamburgh in Northumberland, rich in traditional features and well-suited to family gatherings or get‑togethers with friends.
Bursting with character throughout, the property blends heritage details with generous social spaces designed for spending quality time together.
At the heart of the home lies the open-plan living space, where guests are immediately drawn into a warm and welcoming setting.
The sitting area is arranged with deep seating, tasteful soft furnishings, and period features, all centred around an attractive woodburning stove that naturally becomes the focal point for evenings indoors.
From here, the space flows effortlessly into the fully fitted kitchen, which is thoughtfully arranged to cater for larger groups, making meal preparation a shared and sociable part of the stay.
An elegant dining table sits centrally within the room, encouraging everyone to gather together for long meals, conversation, and drinks, while double patio doors open out to the courtyard and frame views that bring the outdoors in.
The courtyard provides an inviting space for alfresco dining or relaxed socialising, extending the living space beyond the walls of the house.
When it’s time to retire for the evening, The Chimney offers four beautifully presented bedrooms.
A ground-floor super-king-size bedroom provides easy accessibility, while the first floor hosts a further super-king-size, a king-size, and a twin bedroom, each styled to create a calm retreat after days spent exploring the surrounding area.
The location is ideal for discovering the best of Northumberland.
Bamburgh lies close by, offering a good selection of shops, eateries, and its iconic castle overlooking the coastline.
The Heritage Coast stretches beyond, revealing wide sandy beaches, traditional fishing villages, and a series of breath-taking castles.
Nearby Seahouses offers access to boat trips and coastal activities, Alnwick combines historic interest with gardens and culture, and Berwick-upon-Tweed provides riverside walks and historic town walls at the border.
The Chimney offers a memorable base perfectly suited to group holidays shaped by shared moments and remarkable surroundings.

What guests are saying
Just stayed at the Chimney for a 60th birthday celebration, six sisters together and it was just perfect .
The Chimney is beautiful, luxurious , contemporary, & comfortable, yet warm and cosy , we all absolutely loved it , & so much space for a lager family or group . We made such special memories and the chimney played a huge part , thank you .
The Chimney was a good place to stay, it was spacious.
It was a very comfortable well maintained property with everything we needed for a lovely holiday. We would definitely recommend it.
We have stayed at the Chimney twice before but this stay was very different.
When we arrived on the first day we found there was no key in the key box. Being after office hours and I had hardly any phone signal it took quite some time to contact someone in Sykes head office which was only done by a helpful neighbour with a working phone. But the man in Sykes contacted a lady from NCCC (Northumbria Coast and Country Cottages) Seahouses who was at home. She phoned me to say she would collect the spare key from her office and would bring it to us. This she did and we were most grateful. Having waited about 2 hours to gain entry NCCC agreed that we could have an extra two hours for checking out on the following Friday. The second problem was not having a working internet service which there should have been. This was important not least because one of our group had an online course to complete on two days. Some of us also had intermittent work related issues. On the Saturday morning after arriving Katie from NCCC phoned to apologise for the missing key issue and I mentioned the internet problem (and a bathroom door lock which didn’t work). She arranged for a NCCC maintenance man to come that morning to fix the lock (which he did) and to look at the wi-fi problem. He concluded that the problem was not something he could fix and would need the intervention of the internet supplier. To cut a long story short after several visits by the internet company staff the problem was finally resolved on the Wednesday or Thursday after arriving. It was a fault in the supply to the property. The internet connection was unavailable for much of our stay and was not restored until later in the week. So quite eventful week but I must record how attentive and helpful the NCCC staff were, Katy in particular. She understood the problem and didn’t rest until it was fixed. Very impressed with the support we were given.
