Just spent a long weekend in this beautiful apartment which had everything we could possibly want and more.
The booking process was easy and Tracy the owner very helpful in recommending things to do and places to go to get the best of our experience.
The apartment is within walking distance of Bamburgh (approx. 45 mins ) or 5 mins in the car.The views across the estuary are stunning and the variety of birdlife amazing. Also enjoyed the stargazing opportunities every night!
Would recommend fish and chips from Neptunes in Seahouses and a boat trip to the Farne Islands to see the seals and birdlife.

1 review A Fantastic and very well presented holiday rental, it is very spacious and has everything that you require and more, I would certainly recommend the apartment to anyone as the rental is in a very quiet and beautiful location, the views are absolutely stunning and so much wildlife to watch as the tides come and go each day whilst seeing in the distance holy island. Only negative I would say is that for dogs you are on the 2nd floor which we were not expecting. I would still give this rental a full 5 star rating and would certainly return again.
I'm glad you had a great holiday! Just thought I had better let others know that we are on the 1st Floor, nearest to river and sea,(ground level being below us.) This is good- because the property is an Old Mill the windows are at different levels- on our floor they are all the correct height for good views. Also there is a lift which although not necessary handy to have if needed. Best wishes Tracy
1 review We stayed in the Swan Bay apartment for a long weekend to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Tracy was lovely and very pleasant to deal with. What an excellent choice we made. The apartment was beautifully clean and cosy. The ever changing views over the bay are to die for. We will certainly return again soon.

Modern apartment with views over lindesfarne nature reserve from living room and over a babbling brook from master bedroom. Very clean and tidy, only exception was oven which had filthy oven trays, so much so we had to buy our own to use. There are septic tanks at the back of waren mill which stank of sewage so think they needed emptying...this smell was also smelt in the ensuite so not sure if they have problems with sewage system. Heating seemed to be on a timer which we couldn't control so we were freezing at times. Location is fantastic for viewing all nearby places of bambrugh, seahouses, craster, alnwick and berwick. If they sort out the dirty oven, sewage and heating problems this will be a 5 star apartment

The apartment was spacious, extremely comfortable and beautifully furnished with many thoughtful touches and the most fantastic setting and views! Loads of lovely places to visit in the area with good pubs and very friendly locals. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
