Cozy bolt hole in Bamburgh

We were welcomed to a Very impressive, cozy annex set in beautiful garden, walking distance to the centre of Bamburgh. Perfect for the Grace Darling museum, great choice of eating places and stunning castle and beach. The property is tastefully decorated, all the equipment you’ll need, home from home and very clean too.

Bamburgh house

Ideal for a short weekend stay; for longer stays the property is too small and cramped, particularly the kitchen which only accommodates one person at a time.

Sehr schön und geschmackvoll

Wir wurden sehr nett mit Leckereien und Blumen empfangen. Das Haus ist sehr einladend, hat tolle Betten, ist ruhig und hat einen schönen Garten. Die Vermieter waren sehr hilfsbereit aber ansonsten völlig zurückhaltend. Bamburgh ist ein schöner Ort in einer abwechslungsreichen Gegend mit riesigen, einsamen Stränden und Möglichkeiten zum Wandern. Wir haben uns zwei Wochen sehr wohl gefühlt.

Great location in a beautiful village

Great Location for beach and village facilities. Comfortable and well equipped. Perhaps more suitable for just two adults or a small family, rather than 4 adults, due to the small fridge and limited cupboard space for food items.

Lovely stay of Friar's Rest

We had a lovely stay at this property which is very comfortable, well equipped and clean. It is excellently located a short walking distances from the centre of the beautiful village of Bamburgh. There are several good cafes and pubs nearby. Sheila was a welcoming hostess. We appreciated the generous welcome pack. Thank you

Joanne & Alan T. Lovely welcome from the host Shelagh and a very generous welcome pack. The house was spotless and the furnishings were modern, excellent shower and bathroom. The kitchen was fully equipped and the lounge was very comfortable and the garden was a lovely spot for a coffee before setting out each day. The location is great a few minutes walk to pubs, shops and restaurants, beaches and Bamburgh Castle. A great holiday and would definitely like to return in the future.

A wonderful property in Bamburgh

This is a very special property to rent. It is in a perfect location in Bamburgh just a gentle 5 min stroll to the village where you can find restaurants and pubs that suit all tastes. With an amazing backdrop of the famous Bambaragh castle and passing the village green you can reach the most amazing golden sandy beach in no time and walk for miles. Shelagh is a fantastic host and there was a very lovely and generous welcome pack on arrival. The property was spotlessly clean with a high level of quality furnishings with everything you need. The patio served as a beautiful outside space where we could enjoy breakfast or a glass of wine after a days exploring the surrounding areas. Even watching the tennis from the lounge meant we could have the double patio doors wide open looking out to the wonderful garden and creating a fresh and airy environment. We really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful property and would thoroughly recommend this 5 star accommodation. We will certainly back.

Great holiday

This is a very attractive property in terms of its quality, location for the coastline, beach or key inland areas to visit, and peacefulness. Bamburgh itself is beautiful and has an excellent Victoria hotel for non-resident dinners but the village lacks food shops.

Very comfortable property in an excellent location.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Bamburgh and couldn't fault Shelagh as a host. The property was perfect for us - private, clean, comfortable, spacious and a great location for visiting all the attractions of this beautiful coastline. A big thank you to Shelagh for being so friendly and making us feel that nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely go back.

Lovely week late September

First class property, with all home comforts and lovely warm welcome from host Shelagh. Brilliant location, only 5 minute stroll to centre of Bamburgh, which is the nicest of all the local towns, plus also enjoys a good selection of pubs/restaurants. Beaches within 10 min walk from property are breathtaking, in both directions. Would certainly stay again and 100% recommend.

Lovely property in a great location

The property was modern, very clean and comfortable in a quiet location. It was connected to the owners property but with its own private entrance, and they were very welcoming on our arrival and it was nice to be provided with tea, ground coffee, milk, a packet of biscuits and a bottle of wine on arrival as well. It has two bedrooms one with an en-suite which has a freestanding bath but only a handheld spray, however the shower in the wet room was excellent. A suggestion however would be that a privacy curtain should be fitted to the doors to the en-suite as it is quite exposed. The kitchen was well equipped. The lounge was a good size and comfortable. The WiFi was slow and had to be restarted quite a few times. The property was centrally located for many trips around, and only a short walk to the wonderful sandy Bamburgh beach and it was just a short 5 minute walk to the village itself where we ate at the Castle Inn quite a few times as it did not require a reservation to eat and was pleasant and friendly. It was a very nice place to stay for the week.
