Budle Bay Penthouse
Sleeps 6 Bedrooms 3 Shower rooms 2 Location - Waren Mill .jpg)
A most unusual and spectacular space for holidays, the penthouse forms part of the
top floor of the recently converted historic Maltings mill at Waren Mill, just a few minutes drive north of Bamburgh. The mill is said to date back to Norman times and has an idyllic location on the banks of Budle Bay. It affords stunning uninterrupted views over the Bay towards Holy Island and lies in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This area is renowned for its bird life (binoculars and telescope provided!)
Budle Bay, part of the Lindisfarne National Nature Reserve, is an estuary for two streams, the Waren and the Low. The vast mud plains left behind when the tide is out are a haven for birdlife. Greylag, pink-footed geese, mallard, wigeon and others, migrate here in late summer from the Arctic and use Budle Bay as a shelter in winter months.
In true Penthouse style, there is a large open plan living/dining/kitchen space and has a fresh contemporary feel to the interior design scheme. If you're looking for something a bit different in a perfect coastal location, then look no further. It's not the usual cosy country cottage...it's much better!

GUEST COMMENTS
'We had the BEST time. I would recommend the Penthouse to anyone. It felt like a real Home-from-Home!
' We both had an amazing time at the Penthouse! We had wanted to do something special for our first New Year together and special it was - we were taken aback at how lovely the penthouse was, how well it was kitted out, all the little touches and the amount of goodies you left us. As soon as we walked in we both fell in love with the place and knew we wouldn't want to leave. Your phone call was a lovely gesture. As it was dark (and miserable) when we arrived, we didn't realise just how close we were to the estuary, so we got a bit of a shock the next morning, when we got up to see that we could have easily got our feet wet! The weather was exceptional for the time of year, we had a sunny day on Holy Island on Saturday, thankfully we were having a sauna/swim/massage at the Ocean Club during Sundays downpour, we had lovely sunshine for our New Year's Day walk along the beach at Bamburgh and beautiful sunshine on Tuesday for Alnwick Gardens and the town.So all in all, a wonderful time, probably the best New Year either of us have had, so thank you very much for your part in it.
I'm sure we will be back' ................... Darren and Cath Bagley, New Year 2006
' We had a fantastic time ! Arrived in the dark on Friday night and woke up on Saturday morning to that wonderful view!
Weather was kind also with blue skies on the Sunday when we had a lovely walk to Dunstanburgh castle.
I'm sure we'll be back! '... Ishbel Macdougal, January 2008
