Mr & Mrs Smith’s
Bamburgh
This well-loved holiday home of local beach lovers, The Smith family, is both charming and laidback. Just a short walk from the dunes leading down to the sands at Bamburgh, Mr & Mrs Smith’s offers an effortless, but luxury, beach break. The owners delight in sharing their coastal space with like-minded style lovers, who are looking for a relaxed and family-friendly escape.
You’ll find a traditional style timber-clad home on the outside, but inside, touches of beach hut cool combine with all the needs of a family, all just a short walk from Bamburgh Castle, the village with its many eating out options and, of course, the wide sandy beach.

Location
On the south side of Bamburgh, one of the well-known green timber ‘Armstrong Cottages’, Mr & Mrs Smith’s is well placed for guests to walk to the beach or village. Set in a small cul-de-sac of properties, just off the road linking Seahouses to Bamburgh, it’s just a five minute stroll over the dunes to Bamburgh beach. It is also only a minute’s walk from one of our other Retreats, Bamburgh Beach House.
