About this property

Boasting immaculately presented accommodation, Sandpiper in Bamburgh, Northumberland offers captivating views towards the beach and Bamburgh Castle, and is the ideal holiday apartment for a family or couples travelling together. Your holiday begins as soon as you enter the warm and welcoming open-plan living space which is beautifully furnished and is where many happy holiday hours are made chatting and enjoying quality time together. There is an extensive seating area and floor-to-ceiling windows designed to maximise the views and is somewhere you can imagine guests gathering to get into the holiday vibe. The open-plan nature of the space means that even cooking can be a sociable experience with the stylish fully fitted kitchen adjoining the living area so you can keep the designated chef company while they cook up a storm for their guests. When it’s time to serve up there is a welcoming dining area, perfect for visitors to gather and tuck into long and indulgent meals together. At bedtime, make your way to any of three delightful bedrooms, two king-sizes (both with en-suite facilities) and a single. All the bedrooms offer a calming sanctuary after a tiring day of getting out and about exploring. Talking of exploring, you’ll be spoilt for choice for things to do and Sandpiper is in the ideal location for discovering the delights of the region. Close by is the charming village of Bamburgh which has a good selection of shops and amenities as well as the castle for which it’s best known. 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. With captivating views and beautifully-presented accommodation, Sandpiper is the perfect location for a family holiday.

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.
