“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and the weather was mostly kind to us throughout our trip.”

The accommodation exceeded our expectations, offering a cosy, inviting atmosphere that made us feel right at home. Likewise, the 'welcome pack' was impressively generous, filled with thoughtful treats. We had a most comfortable stay at Bay View. Thank you.

Fiona March 2026

“Spacious and well equipped holiday apartment in a beautiful location.”

We had stayed in another apartment within Waren Mill before, but found the ground floor room with additional storage space and the use of Jetty View, for bird watching and reading, great additions to our stay.

- Fiona, March 2026
Angela October 2025

“Everything about Bay View was geared towards making sure our stay was as encase possible.”

From the very detailed property information to the online guide to the locality and surrounding area to the much appreciated welcome pack. The owners have clearly wanted to please their guests and we certainly were. We would definitely visit again.

- Angela, October 2025
Christine September 2025

“Our second stay here, and, again, did not disappoint.”

From the phone call to say we could arrive early, the lovely, clean, accommodation, and the wonderful location. Loved it again!

- Christine, September 2025
David September 2025

“A really nice apartment set in beautiful scenery.”

The day room by the bay was a wonderful bonus. Loved it so much we've booked again for next year.

- David, September 2025
Jean July 2025

“Bay View is an ideal place for a holiday in Northumberland.”

It is comfortable and well equipped. Access is excellent for anyone with mobility issues. We hope to return again next year.

- Jean, July 2025
Amanda July 2025

“We absolutely loved our holiday.”

Everything was clean and tidy. Plenty of facilities, games etc. The Netflix was logged out when we got there, we never watched tv anyways so it wasn't a problem. We will definitely book again. It was great making memories. Thank you

- Amanda, July 2025
Lorraine June 2025

“Beautifully situated.”

Haven for bird watchers. Immaculated presented. Comfortable beds. Fluffy towels. Hand soap and toiletries provided. Great welcome pack. Great parking availability. Not enough work surface in kitchen to prepare meals for 6, but great selection of pots and pans. Sharp knives, but bring your own can opener. Bedrooms a little compact and only 5 hangers per person in wardrobe. Would not hesitate to book again.

- Lorraine, June 2025
Alison May 2025

“Amazing views, comfortable apartment, very clean”

- Alison, May 2025
Mark October 2024

“The apartment was exactly as described, the location is beautiful, six of us had a lovely, comfortable stay and I can't think that any of us had a single complaint, we hope to return at some point, thanks for a nice break.”

- Mark, October 2024
Bernadette September 2024

“Lovely property in a wonderful area.”

- Bernadette, September 2024
Andrew August 2024

“We have stayed at a different property at Waren Mill before.”

Apart from providing ready access to Lindisfarne and Bamburgh Castle, if you are a birdwatcher the location is outstanding because many birds are visible in Budle Bay from this property (although the views from the other one were even better!). There is also a small annexe room giving even closer views. The only minus feature is that the estuary can be a bit smelly. Overall the property was spacious, comfortable and well maintained, good for accommodating friends or family.

- Andrew, August 2024
Edward June 2024

“My wife and I had a fantastic week at Bay View although the weather was not that good for the first few days.”

The apartment and facilities were amazing with tremendous views accross Budle Bay with Holy Island and Lindisfarne Castle in the distance. The apartment was spotlessly clean and furnished to a very high standard with everything supplied that you could possibly need. Very much a home from home. The apartment information package contained everything needed to ensure that all went well and the recommendations of the owners and previous guests were very useful. The Welcome items of drinks and snacks left for us were a very pleasant suprise and were very generous. We highly recommend this holiday property.

- Edward, June 2024
Katherine March 2024

“Everything we needed, comfortable, warm, very well equipped & great views over the bay.”

Perfect location for visiting all the places we had earmarked.

- Katherine, March 2024
Mike March 2024

“Our 5th visit and our 6th already booked for next year - that probably says it all!”

The view across Budle Bay to Lindisfarne Castle from the window seats is just an irresistible draw. The apartment is immaculate and it takes about 1 minute to relax again and settle in. The welcome hamper is a delight. This time we brought 2 friends with us and they also fell in love with it immediately. Always familiar places to go and new ones to discover. Enough said!

- Mike, March 2024
Lesley October 2023

“Exactly as described.”

Very warm comfortable, equipped with all that is needed. High standard of cleanliness. The view is stunning, would most definitely stay again.

- Lesley, October 2023
Nicola September 2023

“Lovely apartment in a great location- an excellent base for exploring the Northumberland coastline.”

Plenty of space for our party of five adults. Comfortable beds and had everything we needed, like a home from home! We enjoyed watching the birds, especially from the little lodge by the water.

- Nicola, September 2023
Christine August 2023

“Lovely apartment well equipped- the beds were really comfy!”

Thank you for the welcome pack - a really nice touch

- Christine, August 2023

Anne May 2023

“Very pleasant and comfortable apartment with nice views.”

Very well equipped and nice touch to leave a welcoming basket of goodies. We enjoyed our stay there very much.

- Anne, May 2023
Anne April 2023

“A spacious, modern and well-equipped apartment, with beautiful views of the Bay.”

Access was straightforward and parking was easy. Very comprehensive Visitor Handbook. We loved the area and found plenty to do, but it was also good just to sit and watch the bay in various different states of tide. The welcome basket was much appreciated.

- Anne, April 2023
Jonathan October 2022

“Fabulous place to stay.”

Spotlessly clean, warm, comfortable and quiet. The pre-arrival info was accurate and really useful. Netflix came in handy for film nights and the telescope to see Lindisfarne was a nice touch. It was super easy to get to Alnwick, Bamburgh, Lindisfarne, even the train to Edinburgh. For what we needed this couldn't be better. BTW Wooler Evangelical Church (about 25 minutes drive) was a friendly, welcoming one for those who like to go tho church whilst on holiday.

- Jonathan, October 2022
Sarah October 2022

“Thank you for providing such a wonderful apartment with amazing views.”

Landing light very helpful, welcome basket and slippers are thoughtful. The layout was perfect, the games were brilliant. A very quiet, peaceful apartment.

- Sarah, October 2022
Kelvin September 2022

“We enjoyed coming back to the area and showing it to our friends.”

Staying at Bay View made this especially comfortable and a good experience. There were a couple of small niggles that we noted in the maintenance booklet.

- Kelvin, September 2022
Rachel August 2022

“The holiday apartment was extremely well equipped and we were delighted with all the appliances and the extra space we had down stairs.”

The beds were very comfy and there was plenty of seating in the living room. The welcome pack was a really lovely touch! We loved the space and the window seats!! The location was perfect and the views changed with the tides, so much wildlife! We loved our week, thank you!

- Rachel, August 2022
Julie August 2022

“Enjoyed use of telescope …nice addition Master bedroom I found rather small and cramped ….”

But nothing to be done about that I suppose …..rather long curtains… I had to be careful not to stand on the bottoms causing them to fall down Maybe label keys as we found them a bit confusing A 2nd set of entry keys would have been useful

- Julie, August 2022
Margaret July 2022

“We would just like to say a big thank you, and where very impressed with our welcome basket, and the cleanliness of the apartment.”

It was a perfect location, to get to all the local attractions. And my favourite spot was the window seat, watching the tide.

- Margaret, July 2022
Suzy July 2022

“Lovely property in a lovely setting.”

Great views from the window seats. Check in so easy. Very well stocked with any implement you could ever want in a kitchen. Welcome hamper was the best we have had. Clean. V comfortable beds. Good info re washing machine, cooker etc.. and also tourist info and places to eat locally. The only thing we missed was a bbq.

- Suzy, July 2022
Hugh June 2022

“Only black mark was the mini-JCB directly outside our bedroom window at 8 am one morning, which was not the fault of the owners, but the management company for the Mill complex.”

The owners apologised immediately when we told them. We love Bay View, have stayed every year for several years, and hope to return next year. Really excellent accommodation & location.

- Hugh, June 2022
Hilary June 2022

“A lovely apartment well equipped and beautiful views Very comfortable and a great base for a holiday Only negative and this is being really picky- all kitchen equipment excellent, more than expected, however couldn't use veg peeler!”

Know this is personal just not one to use for me.... Would book again as so much more to see and so comfortable a great holiday

- Hilary, June 2022
Margaret May 2022

“Lovely comfortable property.”

Quiet and peaceful. Clean and spacious good parking and easy.

- Margaret, May 2022
Mike March 2022

“We wrote another glowing review in the visitor book.”

- Mike, March 2022
Ray March 2022

“The property is well equipped and nicely fitted out.”

We felt that whilst it was clean it was in need of a little TLC. Eg. there were a large number of cobwebs in places from the ceilings. The one comment I would make is that this property has excellent views but unfortunately there have been external works carried out prior to our visit and the scaffolding had been left up, partially obscuring the views.

- Ray, March 2022
David November 2021

“Lovely property, very well equipped, lots of useful information on the use of the facilities, appliances and on locations and eating places in the area.”

- David, November 2021
Sally September 2021

“A good base for visiting Bamburgh Castle and beach.”

A super walk at Ross Links and an easy drive to Berwick and Alnwick, Craster and Dunstanburgh Castle

- Sally, September 2021
Arthur July 2021

“Cleaning was fairly superficial- the bathrooms in particular needed more attention.”

(Mould in shower, dust and fluff in corners) Toilet seat was cracked when we arrived and completely broke during our stay. This was quickly dealt with but should have been picked up before our arrival as it was fairly obvious. On arrival we were given the wrong keys from The Pantry. Cleaners were still there (6pm) so we went straight into the apartment without realising we had the wrong keys. This could have been disastrous- luckily we checked the keys later that evening before we left the building. Basically this meant we had to cancel our pub meal on our first evening as we couldn’t all leave the apartment until the following morning when The Pantry reopened.

- Arthur, July 2021
Russell July 2021

“Property is in a great if remote from facilities location, panoramic views now blocked by growing trees so intermitent view depending on time of year.”

Whilst the property was clean in general there were a couple of areas that needed attention, ie emptying of bins and cobwebs that had been in place for more than a few hours.Great to see welcome pack from the key holders and Sykes made a very pleasant suprise.

- Russell, July 2021
Mrs Fellows July 2021

“We had a lovely holiday at Bamburgh, and found our accomodation fantastic.”

The whole experience was very well organised by Sykes and we would have no hesitation in recommending them.

- Mrs Fellows, July 2021
Brian June 2021

“A spacious, comfortable and well appointed property.”

A perfect base for visiting Northumberland.

- Brian, June 2021
Hugh June 2021

“Bay View is a brilliant location.”

The flat is excellent and well-appointed. Clean, and equipped to a high standard. I don't see why one should accept accommodation of a lower standard than one's home, and Bay View fulfills that criterion. I would lay the flat out slightly differently, but it's a minor point. We find Waren Mill to be excellently located to enjoy the Northumbrian coast, it's seafood and produce, the Cheviots and Otterburn, and the south-east Scottish borders. This is why we keep coming back.

- Hugh, June 2021
John June 2021

“Fantastic location, really well equipped apartment.”

Would certainly stay again here.

- John, June 2021
Stuart June 2021

“During current Covid restrictions it should be pointed out that you can’t use the communal areas & therefore can not access the property on ground level as we were expecting & why we booked it.”

We had elderly parents with us & they had a set of stairs to contend with.

- Stuart, June 2021
Claire May 2021

“We had a lovely time, the apartment was clean and well stocked with everything we could want.”

The welcome pack was a kind gesture. The apartment suited our multi generation extended family with ground floor access. The only slightly negative comment I would say is the photo of the grounds is a little misleading, it includes the surrounding area outside the apartment grounds which makes it look like the site is bigger than it actually is. This did not affect our enjoyment of the place we were just a little surprised the grounds were smaller than we expected. Thank you.

- Claire, May 2021
Eric October 2020

“Great apartment in a stunning location.”

- Eric, October 2020
Mike September 2020

“Everything to do with the apartment was so straightforward and easy.”

The views are great. The location is great. Very good value for money. We were so impressed, we booked again for 6 months time even before we'd finished our holiday!

- Mike, September 2020
Christopher August 2020

“Excellent! Lovely place, really enjoyable stay.”

- Christopher, August 2020
Paul July 2020

“Great location, excellent apartment.”

Brilliant value for money. Very helpful owners too. A lovely week.

- Paul, July 2020
Hugh June 2019

“Bay View is a terrific flat.”

The works to the car park were not at all disruptive. We have enjoyed staying here for several years now, and there really is very little to fault. Even the wifi speed has been improved since our last visit. Cleanliness is excellent and the flat is extremely well equipped. I think this is our fifth or possibly sixth visit, and that says it all, really. Every year, there is some improvement. A couple of minor points that are really for the management company of the flats. The doors near a way of temporaily securing them open to allow bags to be brought in and out. The addition of a combination key pad on internal doors is welcome from a security point of view, but is a huge nuisance at the beginning and end of a visit. The keypads have been poorly chosen and are difficult to open with full hands. The timed illumination in interior spaces is now inadequate given the extra barrier that needs to be negotiated. There needs to be a way for guests to report faults direct - the light fitting in the common entrance hall had failed: this is clearly not the flat owner's responsibility to fix. The communal gardens badly need some attention. It would be much safer if a mirror was provided to help when exiting the back car park.

- Hugh, June 2019
Margot June 2019

“A lovely apartment in a lovely location.”

Sykes, as always, delivers.

- Margot, June 2019
Gordon May 2019

“Lovely spacious apartment,conveniently situated for touring the area.”

Good selection of books,DVDs and games to keep you amused. Very generous welcome packs. All in all a very good choice for a relaxing break.

- Gordon, May 2019
Veronica Lesley July 2018

“The location of Bay View was excellent as we wanted to walk along the Northumberland Coastal Path and we found it to be in close proximity to the coast and to Bamburgh Castle.”

The accommodation was outstanding, clean and fully equipped with some special little touches that made us feel very welcome. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

- Veronica Lesley, July 2018
Hugh June 2018

“Bay View, again, was excellent.”

The flat is clean, well appointed, light and airy. The new bedding is lovely, and has ended one of our few niggles with the property. The Internet connection/wifi is more stable and therefore better. I don't feel 2Mb is adequate when faster speeds are locally available however. This is a minor issue as the property is great, and we plan to return next year.

- Hugh, June 2018
Eleanor June 2018

“Beautiful location, really nice well decorated apartment, however it had not been cleaned properly before our arrival.”

Firstly the floors felt sticky underfoot and our socks turned black. Bath had not been cleaned for a while and even had a used soap bar left behind which they should have noticed had the bathroom been cleaned properly between guests. The oven had baking trays with foil and bits of a previous guests cooking left in, again should have been checked. I could go on. We did overall enjoy our stay, although I'm not sure we would return. ***** Owner Response***** Dear Mrs Mills Thank you for your feedback. We have immediately raised these points with the cleaners and have received assurances that our very high standards will be maintained. We are sorry that you had issues and intend to monitor the situation closely.

- Eleanor, June 2018

- Ailish, July 2017

“This was an excellent apartment - a true home from home!”

It was lovely and cosy on our arrival complete with very appreciated welcome pack containing not only the basics, but also luxury items too. Great location with lovely views and so, so clean. Would recommend this rental to all.

- Margaret, October 2016
Gail September 2016

“Beautiful apartment but as no mobile phone signal, does need at least a payphone in the property.”

- Gail, September 2016
Christine October 2015

“Excellent accommodation with everything you need and more.”

An unexpected, lovely welcome pack greeted us on arrival at this spotless and beautiful apartment. A lovely walk around the bay enticed us from the front door, with many more a short drive away.

- Richard, June 2014
Jo May 2014

“The apartment is fantastic.”

The decor is contemporary and just to our taste. The layout is perfect for our family (with 4 children, ranging from 1 to 10 years old) as they can all be occupied but within the sights of mum and dad. We hope to be returning many times as the area is so lovely and the apartment is so comfortable. Thank you.

- Jo, May 2014
Kevin April 2014

“This was the most well equipped property we have stayed in it was a real home from home.”

Gorgeous views perfect location for main attractions and a wildlife haven in the back yard. Memorable first time visit to the Northumberland Coast and this property added to the joy. A very welcome 'welcome' basket of essentials and non essentials and lots of well thought out personal touches. Fantastic family break in such a beautiful part of the world that is yet unspoilt by tourist traps.

- Kevin, April 2014
John October 2013

“A well equipped apartment in a beautiful location provided all that we needed.”

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.

Property only accepts a Saturday changeover, if you would like a different changeover day please contact Sykes on 01244345700.
