Bay View Reviews

Alexander
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and the weather was mostly kind to us throughout our trip. The accommodation exceeded our expectations, offering a cosy, inviting atmosphere that made us feel right at home. Likewise, the 'welcome pack' was impressively generous, filled with thoughtful treats. We had a most comfortable stay at Bay View. Thank you.
Spacious and well equipped holiday apartment in a beautiful location. We had stayed in another apartment within Waren Mill before, but found the ground floor room with additional storage space and the use of Jetty View, for bird watching and reading, great additions to our stay.
Angela
Everything about Bay View was geared towards making sure our stay was as encase possible. From the very detailed property information to the online guide to the locality and surrounding area to the much appreciated welcome pack. The owners have clearly wanted to please their guests and we certainly were. We would definitely visit again.
Christine
Our second stay here, and, again, did not disappoint. From the phone call to say we could arrive early, the lovely, clean, accommodation, and the wonderful location. Loved it again!
A really nice apartment set in beautiful scenery. The day room by the bay was a wonderful bonus. Loved it so much we've booked again for next year.
Bay View is an ideal place for a holiday in Northumberland. It is comfortable and well equipped. Access is excellent for anyone with mobility issues. We hope to return again next year.
Amanda
We absolutely loved our holiday. Everything was clean and tidy. Plenty of facilities, games etc. The Netflix was logged out when we got there, we never watched tv anyways so it wasn't a problem. We will definitely book again. It was great making memories. Thank you
Lorraine
Beautifully situated. Haven for bird watchers. Immaculated presented. Comfortable beds. Fluffy towels. Hand soap and toiletries provided. Great welcome pack. Great parking availability. Not enough work surface in kitchen to prepare meals for 6, but great selection of pots and pans. Sharp knives, but bring your own can opener. Bedrooms a little compact and only 5 hangers per person in wardrobe. Would not hesitate to book again.
Alison
Amazing views, comfortable apartment, very clean
The apartment was exactly as described, the location is beautiful, six of us had a lovely, comfortable stay and I can't think that any of us had a single complaint, we hope to return at some point, thanks for a nice break.
Bernadette
Lovely property in a wonderful area.
Edward
My wife and I had a fantastic week at Bay View although the weather was not that good for the first few days. The apartment and facilities were amazing with tremendous views accross Budle Bay with Holy Island and Lindisfarne Castle in the distance. The apartment was spotlessly clean and furnished to a very high standard with everything supplied that you could possibly need. Very much a home from home. The apartment information package contained everything needed to ensure that all went well and the recommendations of the owners and previous guests were very useful. The Welcome items of drinks and snacks left for us were a very pleasant suprise and were very generous. We highly recommend this holiday property.
Katherine
Everything we needed, comfortable, warm, very well equipped & great views over the bay. Perfect location for visiting all the places we had earmarked.
Our 5th visit and our 6th already booked for next year that probably says it all! The view across Budle Bay to Lindisfarne Castle from the window seats is just an irresistible draw. The apartment is immaculate and it takes about 1 minute to relax again and settle in. The welcome hamper is a delight. This time we brought 2 friends with us and they also fell in love with it immediately. Always familiar places to go and new ones to discover. Enough said!
Lesley
Exactly as described. Very warm comfortable, equipped with all that is needed. High standard of cleanliness. The view is stunning, would most definitely stay again.
Nicola
Lovely apartment in a great location an excellent base for exploring the Northumberland coastline. Plenty of space for our party of five adults. Comfortable beds and had everything we needed, like a home from home! We enjoyed watching the birds, especially from the little lodge by the water.
Christine
Lovely apartment well equipped the beds were really comfy! Thank you for the welcome pack a really nice touch
Michelle
It was a great holiday, just what we need to relax.
Leonard
Lovely comfortable and easy to live in property great facilities and location
Lovely apartment as to was the setting everything was supplied for a wonderful stay thanks
Very pleasant and comfortable apartment with nice views. Very well equipped and nice touch to leave a welcoming basket of goodies. We enjoyed our stay there very much.
A spacious, modern and wellequipped apartment, with beautiful views of the Bay. Access was straightforward and parking was easy. Very comprehensive Visitor Handbook. We loved the area and found plenty to do, but it was also good just to sit and watch the bay in various different states of tide. The welcome basket was much appreciated.
Jonathan
Fabulous place to stay. Spotlessly clean, warm, comfortable and quiet. The prearrival info was accurate and really useful. Netflix came in handy for film nights and the telescope to see Lindisfarne was a nice touch. It was super easy to get to Alnwick, Bamburgh, Lindisfarne, even the train to Edinburgh. For what we needed this couldn't be better. BTW Wooler Evangelical Church about 25 minutes drive was a friendly, welcoming one for those who like to go tho church whilst on holiday.
Thank you for providing such a wonderful apartment with amazing views. Landing light very helpful, welcome basket and slippers are thoughtful. The layout was perfect, the games were brilliant. A very quiet, peaceful apartment.
Kelvin
We enjoyed coming back to the area and showing it to our friends. Staying at Bay View made this especially comfortable and a good experience. There were a couple of small niggles that we noted in the maintenance booklet.
Rachel
The holiday apartment was extremely well equipped and we were delighted with all the appliances and the extra space we had down stairs. The beds were very comfy and there was plenty of seating in the living room. The welcome pack was a really lovely touch! We loved the space and the window seats!! The location was perfect and the views changed with the tides, so much wildlife! We loved our week, thank you!
Enjoyed use of telescope nice addition Master bedroom I found rather small and cramped . But nothing to be done about that I suppose ..rather long curtains I had to be careful not to stand on the bottoms causing them to fall down Maybe label keys as we found them a bit confusing A 2nd set of entry keys would have been useful
We would just like to say a big thank you, and where very impressed with our welcome basket, and the cleanliness of the apartment. It was a perfect location, to get to all the local attractions. And my favourite spot was the window seat, watching the tide.
Lovely property in a lovely setting. Great views from the window seats. Check in so easy. Very well stocked with any implement you could ever want in a kitchen. Welcome hamper was the best we have had. Clean. V comfortable beds. Good info re washing machine, cooker etc.. and also tourist info and places to eat locally. The only thing we missed was a bbq.
Only black mark was the miniJCB directly outside our bedroom window at 8 am one morning, which was not the fault of the owners, but the management company for the Mill complex. The owners apologised immediately when we told them. We love Bay View, have stayed every year for several years, and hope to return next year. Really excellent accommodation & location.
Hilary
A lovely apartment well equipped and beautiful views Very comfortable and a great base for a holiday Only negative and this is being really picky all kitchen equipment excellent, more than expected, however couldn't use veg peeler! Know this is personal just not one to use for me.... Would book again as so much more to see and so comfortable a great holiday
Lovely comfortable property. Quiet and peaceful. Clean and spacious good parking and easy.
We wrote another glowing review in the visitor book.
The property is well equipped and nicely fitted out. We felt that whilst it was clean it was in need of a little TLC. Eg. there were a large number of cobwebs in places from the ceilings. The one comment I would make is that this property has excellent views but unfortunately there have been external works carried out prior to our visit and the scaffolding had been left up, partially obscuring the views.
Lovely property, very well equipped, lots of useful information on the use of the facilities, appliances and on locations and eating places in the area.
A good base for visiting Bamburgh Castle and beach. A super walk at Ross Links and an easy drive to Berwick and Alnwick, Craster and Dunstanburgh Castle
Arthur
Cleaning was fairly superficial the bathrooms in particular needed more attention. Mould in shower, dust and fluff in corners Toilet seat was cracked when we arrived and completely broke during our stay. This was quickly dealt with but should have been picked up before our arrival as it was fairly obvious. On arrival we were given the wrong keys from The Pantry. Cleaners were still there 6pm so we went straight into the apartment without realising we had the wrong keys. This could have been disastrous luckily we checked the keys later that evening before we left the building. Basically this meant we had to cancel our pub meal on our first evening as we couldnt all leave the apartment until the following morning when The Pantry reopened.
Russell
Property is in a great if remote from facilities location, panoramic views now blocked by growing trees so intermitent view depending on time of year. Whilst the property was clean in general there were a couple of areas that needed attention, ie emptying of bins and cobwebs that had been in place for more than a few hours.Great to see welcome pack from the key holders and Sykes made a very pleasant suprise.
We had a lovely holiday at Bamburgh, and found our accomodation fantastic. The whole experience was very well organised by Sykes and we would have no hesitation in recommending them.
