Bamburgh 1.6 miles. Forming part of a highly sought after development of stone properties, Pipistrelle in Budle Bay in Northumberland, has been completed to an impeccably high standard, making it the perfect holiday destination for a family looking to explore the wonders of the Northumberland Heritage Coast. The standard of accommodation is established from the get-go with a delightful seating area arranged around a feature exposed stone wall with an inlaid woodburning stove and French doors leading outside onto a gorgeous patio area with simply breath-taking views of the coast. Whether it’s summer and you want to throw open the doors and let the outside in, or it’s winter and you want to gather and get warm around the fire, Pipistrelle is a property that has all-year round appeal. When it’s time to eat, the fully fitted kitchen is ready and waiting with all the appliances needed to produce delicious food for the holiday party. Guests can then make their way to the rustic dining table, pull up a chair and look forward to long, leisurely meals together. You can imagine spending many hours here eating, drinking and enjoying each other’s company; this is where holiday memories are made. If the sun is shining, then there is an outside patio area complete with table and chairs allowing for alfresco dining and the opportunity to really soak up those mesmerising coastal views. At bedtime, there are three delightful king-size bedrooms to choose from with the master suite being a particular feature, boasting a TV, en-suite facilities and a truly stunning balcony with seating so you can indulge in the breath-taking views of Budle Bay and beyond. For a real taste of the high life, there is even a sauna so you can really relax into get into the holiday ambience. In the morning, after coffee on the balcony and a quick dip in the sauna, you’ll be good to go and ready to discover the delights of the local area. Budle Bay is an amazing location with mud flats attracting migrating birds and miles of sandy beaches. Bamburgh is just a few miles away and as well as its famous castle, also has a good selection of shops and amenities. Other towns worth visiting in the region include Alnwick, Seahouses (just a few miles away) and you can even head to the border and visit the ever-popular town of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Activities to look forward to in the area include golf, sailing (from Seahouses to the Farne Islands), hiking, cycle rides and horse-riding. A holiday full of happy memories is waiting for you with a visit to Pipistrelle.
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.
