About this property

Bamburgh 1.6 miles. Literally just a stone’s throw from stunning Budle Bay in Northumberland, No9 Budle Sands is an impressive barn conversion which has been tastefully converted to produce beautifully presented accommodation, ideal for a family or two couples travelling together. The sitting room is wonderfully welcoming with an extensive seating area arranged around a delightful open fire, which is somewhere you can imagine curling up together, chilling out and enjoying spending time together. When tummies start to rumble, step into the fully kitchen/diner which comes equipped with all that is needed to produce tasty food for the whole holiday party and when it’s time to serve up, gather around the dining table and look forward to long, atmospheric meals together. If the sun is shining there is a gorgeous patio garden complete with table and chairs and a bench(not enclosed), so you can indulge in time eating and drinking alfresco. At bedtime, there are two stylish bedrooms with feature beamed ceilings and picture windows, they are well-appointed and the perfect space to rest your weary heads and recharge your batteries. In the morning, after a quick dip in the shower or a relaxing soak in the bath, you’re ready to get out and about exploring. Budle Bay is a simply captivating 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. Offering elegant accommodation close to the beach, No9 Budle Sands is the perfect holiday destination.

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.

    Especially liked the good quality fluffy towels. Disappointed in Northumbria cottages. We have used a few companies in recent months and every one has texted me to let me know if cottage was ready and available ahead of 4pm check in. We did turn up a bit early and it was ready. It would have been good to know this as the weather was particularly nasty and a 4pm check in is rather late!

  • Laura

    Was perfectly sized for 2 adults and one small dog. The second parking space was a nice bonus. The only slight frustration was needing to turn on the hot water at least 30 mins in advance of having a shower for the water to be hot enough. We understand there isn't much that can be done about this due to the property having an oil boiler and it was manageable once we figured out how to work it.

    It was peaceful, comfortable and just the rest I needed. My dogs loved the beach and when we came back it was warm and cosy. A lovely hot shower with ample hot water and fluffy white towels. The bed was so comfortable and linen fresh and spotless! There was a problem with the front door handle which came off the bar running between the handles which I managed to push back on. This did not make any difference to my stay and I would love to come back soon. Thank you.
