  • "The property was as described in the most fantastic spot."

    Clearly the property is well used and as such has become in need of a little cosmetic maintenance. The kitchen particularly the appliances require looking at, squeaking floorboards in the upstairs bedrooms, toilet seats were loose, the leather sofa seats had all collapsed and weren’t comfy in the lounge. Pillows weren’t great in the bedrooms, door onto the garden was still and needs adjusting……there are a lot of other minor things that are easy fixes to make this property fantastic

  • "Location was ideal & as portrayed but the accommodation was rundown and basic with no frills."

    The hot tub was extra and paid for with the booking but it did not reach correct temperature for over 24 hours so although paid for 3 days hire of hot tub use was actually only one evening and early morning. Advertised as dog friendly but not even a dog drinking dish provided. We arrived at 3.35 and were informed by a male who refused to identify himself that we could use the public beach until 4pm exactly.

  • "The cottage location was excellent straight onto the beach!"

    Ideal for walking our dog. Coastal views & path to Bamburgh & beyond. Spacious & roomy accommodation with more facilities than we needed. The maintenance team were quick to respond to a couple of minor issues. Would definitely stay again!

  • "The property was excellent location, breathtaking views across Budle Bay."

    The accommodation was clean and well equipped to cater for all the occasions you could think of. Being only a ten minute drive from the A1 it is a great place to base your stay for those that like to adventure out to other places. But seriously, you could just stay and chill all week here.

  • "We continue to return to these cottages as an ideal location to base ourselves from."

    They are well equipped, quiet due to the time of year we visit, and ideal to spend time in. Additionally, other neighbours have dogs and are of the same attitude. We thoroughly enjoy ourselves here and will return.

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.
