    “Lovely comfortable and very well equipped cottage in a stunning location.”

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Be aware the twin room is very small. Fine for younger children but teens and up may find it too close to their sibling for comfort (we ended up with one choosing to sleep on the sofa!)

    Hi Emma, Thank you very much for your review and 100% score even though the twin room didn’t work for your family. I appreciate your feed back and and acknowledge the room isn’t the biggest, the description does say ‘compact’ and the photograph, although I have improved the decor, does pretty much show the whole room, wardrobe storage is outside the room in the passage. Hopefully this is helpful for others looking to book and I really hope it didn’t spoil your stay. Property Owner

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.

Note: Garden is not enclosed, there is an opening.
