"The property was spotlessly clean and comfortable, it had everything we needed and the EV charging was a big plus."
Loved the footpaths from the property all the way to the beach.
The only negative was that the walls of the flat were very thin - we could hear every word from the TV of the adjoining flat when they put it on in the evening and people walking around in the flat upstairs.

"Disappointed to have a constant humming noise in the apartment (24/7) due to the pool pump below."
Nothing in the description stating that this would be the case and we were told by the owner that it could not be switched off. The pool showers were leaking and poorly maintained. Most importantly, the hot water, both in the apartment and the pool showers were hot enough to scald someone. Cutlery was very cheap and horrible to use!

Swimming pool a very good addition to the property very nice views from the property, people where very nice.The owners have provided a very good way of visiting the village of Embleton and the sea side by using there pathways around the property. My brother lives on Dunstan Steads and this was the purpose of our visit . I would like to thank the owner and his family they have a very nice place to live.

We were lucky enough to get sunny weather which meant we could sit out on the terrace enjoying the views of the sea. The accommodation had everything we could possible need with the added bonus of a sparklingly clean pool. I also loved the mown track through the fields towards the sea.

"Mill view s situated in a nice quiet location."
It’s close to three pubs, which are all super friendly and welcoming.
The apartment was clean tidy and modern enough and has a lovely balcony overlooking the sea, which isn’t too far away to walk. We sadly tried to walk it with a pram and that was a little challenging given the soggy ground.
We stopped near Bamburgh last time we visited and I’m torn between the two as they are equally as nice.
We are really pleased that you had a wonderful stay in our apartment. We hope you will come back soon

The bed is huge and comfortable. The views out across fields of golden oil seed to the sea was a bonus in Spring. It has a large balcony with chairs and table and magnificent raised views again. Timed access to the swimming pool worked well for us and it is clean, spacious and with views out over to the fields. We loved it - could have lived here permanently!

"We, three sisters in their 70’s and 80’s, really enjoyed our holiday in Mill View."
The walks available straight from the door are wonderful and we did indeed walk 3 - 4 miles everyday. The apartment is listed as a ‘Luxury” apartment but one or two thing make it fall below that standard. The cutlery is a very poor standard as well as the place mats but what was really poor and inconvenient was the twin bedroom. The one small wardrobe was practically inaccessible to to the person in the bed under the coved ceiling. It had no bedside table or light available and was obscuring the wall plugs. All three of us felt that the quality of the bedding and, especially the pillows, could not be classed as luxury. The comment on cleanliness refers to the fact that the top of the shower head was covered in dust and the base of the bedside lights were needing a good clean. We moved one bedside table from the double room for use in the twin room and found that the carpet under it need to be hoovered. Mirrors would be useful too. The view from the apartment, however is wonderful as is the Balcony which we were able to make full use of. The acid test is, would we return? Yes, I think we would, but remove the word ‘Luxury’ from your listings.

Just a couple of minor things would have made it 5 star all the way. There was no tea towel and only two of the guests had full sized towels. Salt and pepper would have been good as it's not the sort of thing one thinks to bring. Apart than that we were highly satisfied and we loved the location.

"Mill View and North Farm are great."
The private paths through the farm to Embleton and the beach make those journeys shorter, safer and easy for families. Our kids loved playing on the field with the goalposts and feeding the ducks at the pond.
Knowing Mill View was an apartment I'd been worried about our kids running about and disturbing our neighbours on the ground floor, so when we arrived and found that it was just the (lovely) pool and the beauty salon on the ground floor that was a massive bonus - no running through the farm in our dressing gowns in the rain!
All these advantages were bonuses we discovered when we arrived so if I were the owners I'd make more of a fuss about them.
The only tiny improvements I'd suggest would be something in the shower to store shampoo etc and some info in the folder about recycling - we just put all our rubbish in the bin and then discovered the communal recycling bins at the end of the holiday.
Overall, a great holiday and we'd be happy to come back.

"The apartment is modern, but cosy and very comfortable."
The balcony with its view of the coast is a wonderful luxury. There are some lovely walks nearby, so you don't have to drive anywhere if you don't want to. The indoor pool is also a great thing to have as part of the whole deal. The staff on site (when we saw them) were welcoming and friendly. All in all we had a fantastic time. I'd advise booking early - the area might be an undiscovered gem right now, but I've got a feeling that could change when word gets out! Only one tiny criticism - the smoke alarms can be a bit sensitive when the grill is used. Other than that, I intend going back if I can.

"Mill View was a brilliant apartment in a superb location - only a 15 minute easy walk to the stunning beach."
The apartment was very clean and finished to a very high standard. Little touches made all the difference - such as beach towels being supplied, well equipped kitchen with all cleaning products supplied, and thoughtful signs down to beach etc. And being on 1st floor made for a great view out to the coast.
Just a couple of things worth pointing out to future prospective holiday makers - there is an interconnecting door between the bedrooms, and the swimming pool was on a rota with each appt having 1 hour per day (at different times each day). This was great to have the pool to ourselves but maybe a 'swap board' would have made even better to know who was / not using their 'slot' each day. As the apartment is directly above the pool, there were a couple of occasions where we could hear the pool users.
But overall, fantastic holiday that we thoroughly enjoyed - would recommend and would likely return ourselves :-)

"A newly built apartment, furnished and equipped to a high standard, with a most wonderful view from the lounge and balcony across fields to the sea."
We loved watching the changing light, and saw some dramatic rainbows. It was lovely to be able to walk from the door along the mowed footpaths to the beach and Low Newton village for crab sandwiches at the pub. It was a great location for exploring up and down the coast. We very much enjoyed the good sized pool on the ground floor on the days we were able to go. Access was on a rota system giving each of the dozen or so units at North Farm exclusive use for their timetabled hour, which varied each day, but some slots were in the middle of the day.
We were very pleased to find the TV had a DVD player, not mentioned on the Sykes listing. We would have appreciated more surfaces throughout the apartment, for example, a coffee table in the lounge, and a small unit in the bathroom for personal toiletries, etc. The changing cubicles at the swimming pool would benefit from benches. We were surprised that there was no microwave, but apart from that the kitchen was the best equipped of any self catering property we have stayed in, with plenty of space for food storage, and a good sized fridge freezer. The beds were comfortable, and there was very generous provision of items such as soap dispensers and even swimming towels.
We had an excellent holiday at Mill View, and would thoroughly recommend it.
