Wonderful
The quintessential B&B experience. From the checking in process to breakfast in the morning it was made to feel like we were a guest in a home, not a business. We loved every minute of it. Location is perfect for the Castle, beach and local businesses. Bed was very comfortable as was the downstairs living area. We didn’t want for anything. Street parking is a little hit or miss, but there isn’t anything our host can do about that, just be prepared for a little walk from your car to the front door depending on season and arrival time. Thanks to Mark and his father, we will be back again for sure.

Nice little Bamburgh B&B
Canny little B&B that's ticks all the essential B&B boxes just on the outskirts of Bamburgh, no issues, very quiet, Malcolm who did our breakfast was lovely and chatty. Parking could be an issue in busier months but that can be said for Bamburgh in general as it can get very busy. Good communication and instructions from them prior to the visit. Thank you!

We woke up to a power cut which probably lasted most of the day. Mark however has an AGA which gave us a little warm.water but more importantly he had cooked us breakfast which was delicious and we had teapots of welcome tea! Thank you Mark for your kind hospitality!

We were extremely happy with this accommodation. Our host Mark was excellent. So friendly and welcoming. Our room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, cooked to order so hot unlike larger hotel buffet menus. We will definitely recommend this accommodation to family and friends. Will book this accommodation in future .

Always a lovely stay.
A typical cozy British bed and breakfast. I love how intimate it feels. Being a family-run business also makes it feel like they truly care.
