Two tastefully furnished super king bedrooms can be found on the ground floor; both featuring wall-mounted TVs and private en-suites with large walk-in showers. To the rear of the property lies a private garden, a space that has been landscaped with relaxation in mind, with its outdoor copper bath and fire pit taking centre stage. The surrounding countryside, nature and sea views really gives this property the WOW factor.
Start your adventure with a stroll into Bamburgh, a stunningly attractive small village set on the Northern stretch of the Northumberland Coast. It is without doubt dominated by its magnificently striking castle that can be seen for miles around, giving the whole village a somewhat dramatic feeling. Alongside the castle and its amazing history, there are impressive stretches of pure golden sandy beaches, many ’proper’ English tea rooms and restaurants, St Aidan’s Church and a museum dedicated to Grace Darling.

Why not take a trip to the Farne IslandsTake to see the medieval Pele Tower and Victorian lighthouse, as well as the famous seabird colony. Depending on the time of year, you might catch a glimpse of the friendly seals and puffins that visit the islands’ shores. For golfers, Bamburgh Castle Golf Club offers a particularly picturesque round. A short trip south brings you to the historic market town of Alnwick. You must start your trip at the famous Alnwick Castle, one of the largest inhabited castles in the UK and used as Hogwarts when filming scenes for the Harry Potter films so it’s a must-visit for any fans.

The Wooly Sheep can be booked together with No 6 (UK38572) to accommodate up to 8 guests.

About the local area

The idyllic country village of Bamburgh, ancient royal seat of the kings of Northumbria, is set in one of the most breathtakingly picturesque coastal regions in the UK. With trips to the Farne Island Group so close at hand from nearby Seahouses, Bamburgh is certainly one of the most sough after coastal destinations on the Northumberland coast.

The main attraction in Bamburgh is of course Bamburgh Castle, one of Northumberland's most iconic buildings. Spanning nine acres of land on its rocky plateau high above the Northumberland coastline Bamburgh it is one of the largest inhabited castles in the country and has won awards in the North East Large Visitor Attraction Awards and the Green Business Scheme. To prove its universal appeal, the castle was recently a finalist in TV's Britain's Favorite View competition.

A visit to this area is not complete without a trip to Lindisfarne (Holy Island), a tidal island which can only be accessed across the causeway when the tidal conditions allow. Holy Island has a national reputation as a wildlife haven and is home to a national nature reserve. As well as numerous rare birds, you may even spot the grey seal that are resident on the nearby Farne Islands all year round.

Dramatically perched on a rocky crag is Lindisfarne Castle is a small fortress first built in 1550 and today is looked after by the National Trust. Accessible over the causeway is at low tide only, and the island castle presents an exciting and alluring aspect.
