    “Wow, amazing location, beautifully appointed cottage everything you would need, without doubt up there with the best places I've stayed, wildlife from every window, highly recommended, 10/10.”

    A few recommendations to the owner would be a dryer, wet clothes nowhere to dry them, room heating was very hot didn't seem to turn down we were roasted for a week, but saying that we loved our stay.

    Very many thanks for your lovely review. So pleased you enjoyed your stay in the Hemmel, including seeing so much varied wildlife. We’ve noted your recommendation about a clothes dryer and will arrange for one to be available. We’ve also turned the heating down a touch! Best wishes, Sarah 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.

Please note: bookings must fall between a Saturday and Saturday.
