About Millkeepers Lodge

Millkeepers Lodge is a converted grain store at Spindlestone Mill in Northumberland. This five-bedroom property sleeps up to 10 guests and sits just 1 mile from Budle Bay and under 3 miles from Bamburgh. Oil-fired underfloor heating keeps the lodge warm year-round and a woodburner in the ground floor living room adds to the atmosphere on cooler evenings.

The setting is genuinely peaceful. You can hear the mill race from the raised decked terrace at the rear. The enclosed rear garden is safe for children and dogs. It's a coastal and rural spot with easy access to some of Northumberland's best beaches and landmarks.

Five bedrooms sleep up to 10. All bedrooms have zip-and-link beds offering flexible arrangements. Bedroom 2 on the first floor can be made up as a super kingsize. Three bathrooms include a ground floor shower room, a first floor ensuite to Bedroom 2 and a first floor bathroom with corner bath. Wi-Fi and linen are included.

Bamburgh Castle is under 3 miles away (7 mins). Holy Island (Lindisfarne) is around 14 miles north (25 mins). Alnwick Castle and Garden is approximately 18 miles south (30 mins). Farne Islands boat trips depart from Seahouses just 4 miles away (8 mins).
