Description
A Grade II listed former mill, Old Mill in Lucker in Northumberland, offers accommodation with a real ‘wow’ factor and is the ideal destination for a family holiday or get-together of family and friends.
The open-plan living space forms the heart of the home with features such as a vaulted ceiling, exposed brickwork and an open fire which together with ample seating, solid wood flooring and tasteful soft furnishings, all add up to create a really inviting ambience.
For an alternative space to get away from it all (and each other!), there is a snug on the first-floor where you can curl up with a good book and really relax into your holiday.
Step into the attractive kitchen and you will find everything needed to produce delicious food for the holiday party and a charming dining area awaits guests to pull up a chair and indulge in long, enjoyable meals together.
If the sun is shining, then get outside into the delightful gardens and enjoy time alfresco running around the gardens or just chilling out on the patio.
At bedtime, the bedrooms are truly inviting with the choice of two king-sizes and a twin.
Decorated in soft hues with chic rugs, cushions and carpets and feature ceiling beams, the bedrooms are all beautifully stylish and a welcoming sanctuary.
After recharging your batteries overnight, you’ll be refreshed and raring to go ready to explore the delights of the region.
On the doorstep is the popular hamlet of Lucker which offers a whole host of delightful rural walks and hikes which will be rewarded with some great views along the way.
Bamburgh is a short drive which is well worth a visit boasting a castle and some fantastic beaches as well as a good selection of shops and eateries.
Other towns worth visiting while you’re out and about include Alnwick, Lindisfarne, Alnwick and Berwick and attractions to put on your bucket list include Hadrian’s Wall, Dunstanburgh Castle, Northumberland Country Zoo, a boat trip to Farne Islands and Cragside House.
Nestling in a rural idyll, Old Mill is a welcoming and authentic holiday home which promises guests a break to remember.

What guests are saying
We stayed at The Old Mill in Lucker as we wanted a good location for exploring the area, and the property certainly delivers on that front.
Lucker is a lovely village and ideally situated for visiting many local attractions. The accommodation is spread over three levels, with the lounge and kitchen on the top floor. The bathrooms and en-suite were of a very high standard and extremely well equipped. Unfortunately, we did experience some issues during our stay. The front bedroom, which is below street level, had a noticeable damp smell. A dehumidifier was provided and needed to be used regularly throughout our stay. As the weather changed, the smell became more noticeable and affected our enjoyment of the room. We also felt that the hot tub was disappointing. The cover was very difficult to remove and replace, and the confined space around the hot tub made access awkward. The restricted space meant manoeuvring around it was uncomfortable and difficult. Overall, we enjoyed the location and there are many positive aspects to the property, particularly the bathrooms and layout. However, the damp issues in the bedroom and the practical difficulties with the hot tub affected our overall experience.
The Old Mill is a lovely holiday accommodation.
Its location is great- 10 mins drive from Bamburgh, 15 from Seahouses and maybe 20 from Alnwick. Lots to do in the area. The accommodation is cosy and has everything you need. It’s a big bonus that each bedroom has its own en suite! The welcome crate was very generous and received with thanks. Private garden area is nice and the hot tub is an amazing addition, making the holiday and accommodation that bit more special! We would certainly stay again if we were visiting the area!
We were 5 adults with 2 well behaved dogs and had a lovely family stay in Lucker.
We enjoyed the Old Mill accommodation and appreciative of the welcome basket on arrival and treats for the dogs too. The kitchen and living area are on the top floor and whilst we liked it, it maybe problematic for anyone with mobility issues. The bedrooms were lovely and spacious with ensuite facilities. We would recommend both the area of Lucker and this accommodation to others.

The pretty Northumberland village of Lucker lies in the heart of Heritage countryside, midway between the A1 and Bamburgh. The historic coastal village of Bamburgh, with its sweeping beaches and dramatic castle, is only a short drive away with an array of excellent pubs, restaurants and gift shops. Lucker itself offers a good pub serving excellent food and a restaurant serving traditional french crépes and freshly cooked pizzas. Lucker is ideally placed for discovering the Cheviots, the stunning Northumberland Coastline and the Scottish Borders.
Seahouses, roughly five miles away, is the harbour for boat trips to the Farne Islands.
