While some minor issues are noted, the overall experience is highly regarded, with many guests eager to return.
Guests consistently note the property's cleanliness, with remarks on the well-maintained apartment. One mention of a partially made bed suggests a slight oversight, but overall, the high standard of cleanliness is evident.
The location is highly praised for its beautiful views, peacefulness, and proximity to Bamburgh, Seahouses, and coastal paths. The scenic setting and easy access to local dining and attractions contribute to its excellent rating.
Comfort is generally well-received, with positive comments on the new sofa and the property's spaciousness. However, there are suggestions to replace the mattresses for better support, which affects the score.
Facilities are regarded as very good, with a well-equipped kitchen and additional amenities like the jetty cottage. Some guests mention the lack of recycling facilities and internet issues, indicating room for improvement.

Fabulous homely apartment in a beautiful converted mill. We holidayed with our 3 children and cockerpoo and all had a great holiday. Close to Banburgh, Seahouses and holy island for things to do, whilst in a great tranquil setting to get away from it all - we’ll definitely be back!

The Maltings is a generous size property with 3 good sized bedrooms suitable for 5 people. We stayed in the ground floor apartment. The area is lovely and peaceful with a sea view and good walks. The view over the bay is delightful and you also have full access to a little cottage with full views over the bay. The owner provided everything we needed and the left us a few basic items so we could make a brew when we arrived. The property was clean and very modern. We would recommend the property and would definitely revisit in the future.
