Guests say

Guests have consistently praised the apartment for its spaciousness, modern amenities, and prime location in Bamburgh, with easy access to the village and beach. The property is described as clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, making it a great base for exploring Northumberland. While most experiences have been positive, a few guests noted minor issues with maintenance and facilities.

The majority of reviews highlight the property's cleanliness, with guests finding it well-maintained upon arrival. However, one review mentioned an unclean outdoor area, slightly impacting the score.

The location is highly praised for being close to the village centre, beach, and local amenities, making it an ideal spot for guests. The provision of a parking space is also appreciated.

Guests find the apartment comfortable, with special mentions of comfy beds and couches. However, suggestions for safety rails in the shower and comments on noisy neighbours indicate room for improvement.

The apartment is well-equipped, with a modern kitchen and guaranteed parking. Some reviews, however, point out issues with the TV and outdoor furniture, and a missing BBQ, which affects the score.

While the reviews reflect a positive experience with the service provided, there is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category.

About this property

Nestling in the beautiful village of Bamburgh in Northumberland, The Apartment boasts a superb location and is immaculately presented, ensuring guests a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Ideal for a family or couples travelling together, the accommodation is surprisingly spacious. The sitting room is bright and airy and invites guests to walk in, kick off their shoes and curl up on the sofa to get into the holiday vibe. The good-sized kitchen is fully fitted and is a delight to cook in with all the appliances needed to produce delicious food for your holiday party. The welcoming dining area is set up ready for guests to pull up a chair and look forward to long, lingering meals together. Talking of dining options, if the weather allows, then there is an attractive courtyard where you can enjoy time drinking and dining alfresco. When it’s time for bed, choose from two stylishly presented bedrooms, which are both extremely well-appointed and offer a suitably calming place to relax after a tiring day of exploring. Bamburgh is just a few minutes’ walk and has a good selection of shops and amenities as well as the castle. Head off from here and carry on along the Heritage Coastline where you will find miles of sandy beaches, quaint fishing villages and breath-takingly beautiful castles. 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), birdwatching, hiking, cycle rides and horse-riding. Beautifully presented accommodation in a superb location, The Apartment ticks all the boxes.

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.

    Very peaceful with everything we needed for our stay.

  • Stu

    It was a great size for our family of four, light and airy and very comfortable. Location is excellent - less than 15 minutes' walk to the beach, and close to shops and other amenities. We'll certainly recommend this place to friends and hope to return ourselves in future too. Thank you!

    We thought the tiled floors, especially in the hallway were a great idea. It made it easier when coming back from the beach or a muddy walk that we didn’t have to worry about damaging carpet or floor coverings. We had some lovely walks from Bamburgh leaving the car behind. It was great to have a designated car parking space so we didn’t have to worry about finding a space on the road. We really enjoyed our stay at The Apartment.
