Reviews

Beautiful cottage, very well equipped with the exception of cleaning cloths and products - we had to purchase. Parking is limited unless we missed another parking area for the cottage but just managed to get two cars parked. All in all a very comfortable cottage, very warm and clean.

Mrs E,

Comfortable property with good amenities and excellent layout for a family group. We really enjoyed our week long stay. The nearby villages provide good farm shops, pubs and a supermarket by car. The location allows for easy access to the A1 for connectivity to most of the surrounding Northumberland area by car. Hiking directly from the property involves a reasonable degree of road walking but is achievable to experience the stunning views Northumberland has to offer.

Mr L,

Fantastic cottage and very well equipped. Nice and spacious in particular the dining area, the cottage overall is deceptively larger than expected! Some lovely touches such as a welcome pack and a great information pack written by the owners so you have plenty of ideas as to where to visit which was really useful. We had a lovely week there, there were a few minor points such as cleanliness which was acceptable but does need some attention. We would most definitely return and thank you to the owners for sharing such a great place!

Miss K,

This cottage feels like a home rather than most holiday lets that I have stayed in. The welcome packs and the information pack are very well put together and useful. The house is well equipped and as a group of adults we had plenty of space for the group to be together for dinner etc. The only negative is that parking at the property is very tight and, I suspect, could be problematic when all properties are full.

Ms M,

Please note if you take a dog you are not allowed to leave it in the property when you go out.

Mrs J,

We were a party of 8 - 5 adults and 3 teenagers and there is ample room for 8. The cottage is very well equipped, if you like ice in your drinks it would be a good idea to take an ice cube tray as the one in the freezer makes tiny ice cubes! Location is good for exploring the area. Please be aware that although it states a washer/drier, there is only a washing machine in the property. The garden area and furniture is lovely for sitting and relaxing on warm days. We all had a lovely time and would return.

Mrs H,

Well equipped modern homely cottage. Great location. Very comfortable place for a family holiday. We would not hesitate to book this again.

Mrs S,

Really lovely property - very comfortable, well equipped and nicely furnished. We had a very enjoyable stay, with the property well located for Bamburgh and the coast.

Mrs F,

The cottage is lovely, everything thought of. Very clean, well stocked. Nice welcome bag of goodies and milk in the fridge was very welcome on arrival. Great location for Bamburgh and Alnwick. All round great place to stay and would recommend for a family stay.

Mrs C,

Ideal location. Nice cottage. Wet room and access difficult for wheelchair users but perfect for able bodied guests. Online instructions great.

Mrs M,

Lovely cottage in a great location to explore Bamburgh and surrounding area. Well equipped and comfortable.

Mr D,

We enjoyed our stay at Old Farm greatly. The facilities were excellent, very well presented accommodation..

Mr F,

The house was deceptively large once inside, and all fittings and furniture were very lovely.

Mrs B,

Location

Bamburgh & Surrounding Area

There’s something to appeal to everyone in and around the village of Bamburgh. The beach is popular with dog walkers,  horse riders, rockpoolers and kite surfers. And there are some beautiful coastal walks - try  Bamburgh to Waren Mill at low tide.

Explore the ancient castle and its grounds (outside spaces are dog friendly) or head to the RNLI Grace Darling Museum to find out how a young local woman and her father saved the lives of stranded survivors of a wrecked steamship. You can even see the boat they used for the daring rescue.

Keen golfers will love the Bamburgh Castle Golf Club as well as the many other good golf courses along this stretch of Northumbrian coast. And food-lovers are also well catered for. Try some of the locally sourced crab in a delicious sandwich, or head to R. Carter and Son butchers on Front Street for the renowned Bamburgh Banger sausages. 

There are cafes, pubs and restaurants aplenty, including The Copper Kettle Tea Rooms, The Potted Lobster, The Castle Inn and The Victoria Hotel. Nearby Lucker also has a superb restaurant and cafe, The Apple Inn and The School House.
