Hired the apartment for my mother's 75th birthday. Was met by Keith who was a real pleasure to chat with, explaining everything we needed to know. The birthday card and cake from Louise was an unexpected bonus and believe me did not last long. The location was ideal, easy walking distance to Berwick and Spittal, plenty of shops close by and never short of things to do. Enjoyed watching the seals from the window and a better view from the lifeboat station. Honestly I can't wait for an opportunity to come back.

Thank you very much for this kind review. We're so glad your Mum enjoyed spending her 75th birthday with us and that you both enjoyed the cake. There's always plenty to do locally and the views from the windows are an ever changing scene. The wildlife, with swans, seals and sometimes dolphins is an added bonus. We'd be pleased to welcome you back any time. Best wishes, Keith & Louise.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Perfect location for walking the coast and enjoying Berwick-Upon-Tweed’s entertainments. The flat was lovely and warm and well equipped. Comfy bed. We loved the view of the harbour from the window seats. Our hosts were great at settling us in and provided a nice welcome pack, and were very accommodating and helpful with the only unforseeable problem we had.

Our thanks to our hosts Keith amd Louise for allowing us the use of their beautiful apartment and the thoughtful gifts of flowers, wine and earl grey tea loaf cake, which was scrummy. The apartment and facilities were fab, with all needs catered for, being a short walk from food shops, takeaways and the main centre of historical Berwick. Secure parking was also a bonus. The view of the dock, harbour and sea beyond from the apartment was always interesting, especially on "soft" rain days. We would highly recommend the apartment. We will definitely be back as so much to do and see and didn't manage to fit in everything we wanted to do in a week. We enjoyed our break enormously, which was only marred by the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Yes, it was a sad week for us too. Keith is just old enough to remember being in the crowd for her coronation when he was about four. We are glad you had a good break. There is lots to do, we are still finding local attractions and restaurants to visit after 10 years in the area. We would love to welcome you back when you are ready for another visit. Thank you for your kind review.

The apartment was lovely and clean. Keith and Louise had thought of everything. We had a lovely welcome pack which included wine and the most delicious cake made by Louise. The view of the working dock really engaged us. In the distance we were able to watch the sunrise. There is a beach in walking distance. Several places to eat in the town. We would highly recommend Four Mill Wharf for your stay.

Thank you so much for the recommendation and the kind review. The dock is fascinating with all the comings and goings, both human and wildlife. More cake in progress this week, and then looking forward to making my Christmas cake! We hope to se you again some time

Spent a lovely relaxing week here. The apartment is spotless with everything you need, and it is so easy just to sit in the window seats and watch the harbour life with the tide flowing in and out along with the swans. Very convenient for supermarkets, M&S food store and a local co-op. Easy to walk across the old bridge into town and around the walls or out to the lighthouse. Keith & Louise met us on arrival with a welcome pack of home made cake and a bottle of wine and explained everything - perfect hosts. Lovely countryside, and plenty of places to visit. We will be back!!

Thank you for this brilliant review, it has been a busy year for us with lots of lovely guests, so good to get back to normal after the pandemic. The sea was clothed in mist this morning when we went to get ready for our next lot of guests, but we soon had a fresh day with some sunshine. There were loads of swans in the dock, doing their usual patrol in and out to the river, as you say, very relaxing to watch them moving in and out. We will be pleased to welcome you for another visit. regards Keith and Louise

What a wonderful place to stay! We got a really warm welcome from Keith and Louise and some lovely Earl Grey tea loaf and a bottle of wine. The apartment had everything we needed and felt very cosy. A really comfortable bed. Loads of storage space for our clothes (which you don't normally get elsewhere). The view from the living room was great, I loved watching the swans and the seals. As non-drivers the location was excellent. It was really easy to walk around Berwick and down to Spittal Beach. There is an Asda just round the corner and a very convenient bus stop just round the corner too where we caught buses straight to Bamburgh and to Holy Island which was excellent. Very highly recommended. Thank you for a great holiday.

Sounds like you had a great time! Thank you for this kind review, and we are glad you managed to navigate the Holy Island bus time table, it is OK once you get the hang of it. As you say the flat is very convenient for buses and trains with lots to do locally in easy walking distance. So glad you enjoyed your holiday and the flat was to your liking. We would love to welcome you back again. regards Keith and Louise

Just what we like to hear. So glad you had a relaxing break and were able to chill out. We have been working with the management company of the building, to improve the servicing of the building and are delighted to see some immediate impacts in terms of weeding and external maintenance, so the apartment is starting to look as good on the outside as it does on the inside. We would love to welcome you back anytime. regards Keith and Louise

Oh my goodness you will get the warmest welcome from the hosts, Keith and Louise, who are so kind and even gave us an Anniversary cake, card and Prosecco. Thanks again as it was the best. The apartment is immaculate and has everything you need and a wonderful view which I appreciated for hours too, watching seals bobbing up in the dock, swans on the estuary, the waves crashing round the lighthouse and spittal point, the fishing boats bringing in their catch and we even saw the tanker being filled with grain just like Keith had mentioned on Friday. The added bonus of binoculars in the apartment was brilliant too. I particularly loved all the quirky seaside and wildlife ornaments too. As for our holiday it was beyond wonderful ... We arrived early so just parked at Spittal point and were amazed to be welcomed by dolphins jumping and splashing about before swimming off down the coast. Wow, wow, wow, what a way to start the weekend. Second day included trip to Holy Island for a lovely meander and then off on one of Billy Shiels boat trips around the Farne Islands. Boat trip was defo worth £20 per head as we saw all the puffins, guillemots, razerbills, shags, artic terns, kittiwakes etc etc as well as seals and the grace darling lighthouse. Brilliant trip on a fabulous sunny day with crew who are so helpful. Following day a little walk around Berwick and some historical walls, barracks etc. I never realized how big Berwick actually is until now. And then onto a lovely value for money Sunday lunch at Limoncello restaurant. Reviews on it were mixed but we had a lovely meal and great service. £7.95 per head for Sunday lunch with soup and a little ice cream or coffee included ... It's unbelievable in this day and age. Then a little drive to Eyemouth just up the coast where we fed a couple of seals (one is blind bless it) at the end of the harbour and saw the amazing Widows and Bairns sculpture that really touched my heart. Every woman and child on the sculpture is a widow or orphan from a historic storm where nearly 200 men lost their lives when they couldn't outsail the storm chasing them into the rocks. So so sad and the history of so many sailors over the years. Then today it was a lovely slow drive home with a wee stop off at St Mary's Lighthouse near Tynemouth to blow the cobwebs from your hair ... Lol ... And breath in the wonderful sea air before going back to normality. Once again we were lucky enough to see 3 seals in the sea there too and a few sea birds inc shags and a kestrel hovering near the car park. Brilliant holiday made so much better by a wonderful apartment and lovely hosts xxx hope we get to come back soon.

I can't fault our stay at Mill Wharf. The hosts we're lovely, very professional and such a warm and friendly welcome. The apartment lovely, spotless and well-equipped. It was lovely to look out on the harbour and be such a short walk into Berwick. I'd thoroughly recommend!

Hi Ben Thanks for your very kind review, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay. It was lovely to meet you all. The dock was looking splendid today when we did a changeover for our next guests, with all the small boats in and the water reflecting off their hulls. Thanks again for the recommendation.

Just being picky saying "Almost every thing" Would have liked a tumble drier but thats just me. Great location on the first floor, views over the harbour and over to the town from the sitting room / kitchen / diner. Kieth was there to welcome us, as agreed, and to show us around. Welcome pack very welcome, wine and cake, sorted our first meal. Plenty of parking on the street as well as the secure space in the complex. The only minor problem was the shower which tended to run hot and cold occasionally. Other wise it was a good shower space / bathroom. It is an easy walk to the town over the old bridge. get the time right and you can watch the sweep net fishermen trying their luck. All in all a very nice place to stay.

What a lovely review, we are so glad you enjoyed your visit. We apologise that you had a problem with the shower running hot and cold. We have checked this since your visit and were unable to replicate this problem with the shower. Thank you for making us aware of your difficulty with this. We have just shown some visitors into the flat today who told us they had been dolphin watching off Spitall beach before their arrival, there is so much to see in the immediate area. The fishermen you were watching are using a traditional form of net fishing from boats called cobbles and they can regularly be seen from the old bridge. Thanks for your review Keith and Louise

About the neighborhood
Berwick town is an ideal centre for exploring the region, but also has many attractions of its own. A walled town, fortified by Elizabeth I during a time of serious conflict between England and Scotland, there are interesting walks round the ramparts and the quainter parts of this old town, boasting 900 years of history. Walks along the harbour wall, or along the river Tweed offer the opportunity to spot seals, dolphins, otters, and of course the famous Berwick Swans – a colony of almost 800 birds. And when your walks have worked up a thirst or appetite, Berwick offers a wide choice of restaurants, pubs and cafes to suit every taste.
Getting around
Berwick is ideally situated for train links to London, Edinburgh and Newcastle via the mainline routes. There are regular bus services to surrounding towns and several scenic coastal bus services from Berwick to Newcastle. Berwick town is easily accessible on foot from the apartment and the stroll to town gives lovely views over the river and out to sea. There is free parking available in Berwick. If you just want to potter around Berwick and enjoy some local walks you can probably abandon your car during the holiday. If you bring your car you will find most of the roads are comparatively quiet and you will enjoy many beautiful views as you drive around Northumberland
