"We had a great time in Bamburgh."
The accommodation has a great setting by the castle. The flat was very clean and reasonably well equipped. Will return for another holiday. Recommended.

"The hob does not work."
The back bedroom TV just says 'Scan Channels' not usable The living room TV is too complicated. We just want to turn on the TV and see choice of programmes. Back bedroom bath plug does not seal and therefore bath does not hold water

"Just back from a fabulous 5-night stay at Northrawe."
Clean and comfortable accommodation with incredible views of stunning Bamburgh castle from the apartment living room. Close to the beautiful beach and only about 30 yds from the Main Street with its shops and places to eat/collect supplies. Comfortable beds and sofas; plentiful equipment to self cater and useful welcome packs with dishwasher tabs/ kitchen cloths etc and another with tea/coffee/ biscuits/UHT milk for a cuppa on arrival. There were also some basic condiments in the kitchen and supplies of washing up liquid. Also liquid soap was provided in both bathrooms. Electric storage heaters and heated towel rails throughout provided great heating in the cold February temperatures; apartment lovely and warm on arrival. There was a selection of books/magazines and some children’s DVD’s. Gated security to the apartments and covered car parking with clear instructions provided on how to access on arrival. The best accomodation we’ve stayed in at Bamburgh and would recommend without hesitation. Thank you for letting us experience that fabulous view from the living room! Will definitely be back to lovely Northrawe

"Lovely property beautiful views of the castle."
Property cold on arrival but after a few hours was cosy. One heater out of action, temporary one was in place. We love to cook but although kitchen looked good several items to prep and cook food not available , suitable chopping board cheese grater etc.eg. Double the amount of plates, bowls etc would be useful. Bamburgh a beautiful place to stay. Thank you
Apologies regarding the heater which has now been replaced and cricket etc updated , many thanks Property Owner

Thank you for your lovely feedback we hope you stay again! Property Owner

"Nice property unfortunately view was spoiled due to a whole panel of the window being broken, before we arrived, and had to be boarded up."
Apart from that we enjoyed our stay. We found the property clean but attention to detail on the cleaning could be improved.
-
"The apartment was in need of a deep clean."
Dirty fingermarks round light switches and dust on various services. Light bulbs not functioning in shower over cooker hob and patio. Little storage in bedrooms. Second bedroom small.
Thank you for your feedback – we are really surprised about your comments on the cleanliness as our cleaner normally gets top marks. We have addressed those points though. Bulbs can go out obviously on the cookers and patios and if you call the local office they can get those changed whilst you are on your holiday. We haven’t had any comments on the storage but will have a look at what we can do to improve that. Property Owner

"Our 3rd visit with 4th already booked for 2024."
Big leap in price for 2024. Perfect location and great for 2 couples, with our own bathrooms. Outside is a disgrace with old,broken terrace furniture which needs to be taken to the dump.

"Absolutely beautiful property in an amazing location."
I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Bamburgh. Kitchen was well equipped, furniture comfortable and everything spotlessly clean.
-
"Excellent location and lovely views and comfort of the rooms and parking etc."
wonderful. Utensils could do with an update e.g. no cork screw to open wine we bought and no shops to get one.jugs to make breakfast.did ask the guys to bring corkscrew but never arrived.

"Our first encounter was difficulty getting the security gate to open, we contacted your selves and a member of staff had to come and let us in."
The heating is not adequate in the winter months, it was quite cold during our stay There was nowhere to hang wet gear or sandy footwear. The seat on one of the dining chairs was taped up with black tape, there was a piece of wood on the floor which had come off the window and was lying on the floor underneath the radiator

"Northrawe is a fantastic property, the proximity to Bamburgh village, the Castle and the beach could not be better."
The view of the Castle and cricket pitch out of the sitting room window has to be one of the best in Bamburgh. The property was lovely and warm and consisted of two bedrooms with ensuite facilities a well equipped kitchen and small sitting room. Only a couple of comments, possible shoe rack/hooks to hang up outdoor coats, shame the property did not have a log burner.
Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately a log burner is not practical for this property but we are looking into a real flame fire. We will look at potential space for shoe racks and a coat rack. We hope you return soon. Property Owner

"It was an excellent holiday for the views of the castle, fantastic location for the shops, plenty of choices for eating and drinking and fantastic takeaways."
The short walk to the sands and sea was another great selling point but also the cleanliness of the property and ease of parking. Everything provided in the property we could not fault.

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.
