Overview
Property code: OC-GD1273

This contemporary property, sitting between a hotel and a pub in the heart of the historic coastal village of Bamburgh, is in the perfect location for eating out in the evening and enjoying everything the town and locality have to offer. Wander through the village to the gorgeous sandy beach, just 0.5 miles away, overlooked by Bamburgh Castle. Sited on 9 acres of rugged coastal land and home to a succession of kings, a visit to the castle is a must. Uncover over 3,000 years of history and learn about the myths and legends associated with England’s finest coastal fortress. Drive to Ross Farm (6 miles away) and walk 1.5 miles to reach the wilderness of Ross Back Sands, a stunning secluded beach with 3 miles of unspoiled dunes and views of Bamburgh Castle in one direction and Holy Island in the other. Here, dogs are welcome and few people make the walk to the beach, so it remains off the beaten track. If you’re feeling adventurous, brave the North Sea at Beadnell Bay, 6 miles away, and try surfing, windsurfing or kitesurfing. If you prefer to stay dry, take your clubs to Bamburgh Castle Golf Club, 1 mile away, where the views from the links course are breathtaking.

The house has a welcoming open-plan lounge/diner with comfy sofas, gorgeous wood flooring, and plenty of space to relax and eat together. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking up delicious holiday meals, and stairs next to the kitchen go up to the first floor, where the two bedrooms and bathroom are found. The impressive king room has a sumptuous bed and plenty of seating space for relaxing, and the twin room is bright and airy with extra storage in the Divan beds. Both bedrooms have use of the large family bathroom, with a bath and walk-in shower.

Outside there’s a small private garden to enjoy – being sheltered from the elements it’s a great suntrap. It has a lawn and a raised patio area with garden furniture and a BBQ, the perfect place to enjoy relaxing in the evening and dining alfresco. Being secure, it’s safe for furry friends to roam and play.

The cottage is in a great location and would be comfortable for visitors with no dogs as they are not allowed upstairs, which was not communicated to us at any time, found out when we arrived. It is very dark and needed the lights on all the time if in. The floorboards creak terribly and do keep people awake, and there is a fair bit of mould in tRead morehe upstairs hall, main bedroom and around the shower. Someone also just walks in to move bins, not very safe if my dog was in the garden at the time, we were not told someone would just come in as it asks in the info to please put bins out. Overall nice but as I had to sleep downstairs on the sofa because I had a dog, I would not stay again Hide

This cottage is in a lovely position only minutes from beach and castle. 3 lovely watering holes on Front Street plus a local butchers and a deli. Inside the cottage was decorated to a high standard with a clever use of mirrors to make the cottage look more spacious and light.

The position of the cottage is ideal, as we are dog owners, and having dog friendly pubs and establishments so close by was brilliant. Just stepping out for lovely walks always within sight of the amazing Bambrugh Castle on what is probably the best beach in the UK within 5 minutes walk was amazing. The enclosed garden was private and very secureRead more for our furry friends. We certainly hope to return very soon. Hide

The property was clean and comfortable. The location was central to the village, so easy access to facilities. However, as it was located behind one of the hotels, there was sometimes some noise and food smells. There were no views from the property, which wasn't a problem for us as we were out and about most of the time. A good place to be basRead moreed.

The entrance to the property was around the back which I knew but it was behind the Victoria Hotel and wasn't the nicest of environment's for accessing a property. The property information did not say that there was just one window in the living room with opaque glass, as outside the window there was the outside area of another property. There wasRead more one little window you could open but basically it was quite dark and smelt quite 'stale' in there. Unfortunately my daughter had wanted to do her revision in that room for her exams after half term, but it was so dark and unleasant that she couldn't study there. In the end we came home early so she could do some revision at home. I do think that this type of arrangement should have been explicit in the property information as it was quite unpleasant and not expected. I feel therfore that it was not good value for money having not spent a whole week there because of the low quality of that downstairs accommodation. Hide
