  • "Lovely property in a great location."

  • "Beautiful flat and clean."

    However not enough serving dishes. The kitchen utensils were scarce and insufficient to cater for 6 and created difficulties. The frying pans had lost their non-stick coating.

    Hi Thanks for the feedback. We will add all the items suggested. Property Owner

  • "The most wonderful holiday accommodation we’ve ever stayed in!"

    We have rented homes in Bamburgh every year for the last 15 years, and this was the very best. The views over the cricket pitch, castles and sea were probably the best in the whole of the village. The accommodation itself was superb. The only slight issue was the keypad to open the gate is so worn away that the numbers were not visible - everyone appeared to struggle with it. Otherwise, perfection! Thank you.

About the location

BAMBURGH

Seahouses 3.5 miles; Beadnell 5.1 miles; Alnwick 16.9 miles.

The village’s sweeping sandy beaches and dramatic fortress - Bamburgh Castle - make Bamburgh one of Northumberland’s major visitor attractions. The castle can be seen for miles and dominates this part of the county’s coastline. Today it remains home to the family of the great Victorian industrialist Lord Armstrong, and is open to the public on a daily basis. Although overshadowed by the great castle, Bamburgh village is picturesque with neat grey stone cottages facing a manicured village green. There are excellent pubs, hotels with restaurants and a small selection of village shops. There are golf courses in Bamburgh and nearby Seahouses, and within easy reach are more wide sandy beaches, lovely fishing villages, stunning castles and coastal islands to explore along the dramatic Heritage Coast. There are numerous other attractions also a short drive away, including the famous Alnwick Castle and Gardens and the historic walled border town, Berwick-upon-Tweed. A superb base for exploring Northumberland.
