This apartment is very good. Clean, well equipped and the decor is lovely. It is well situated for the town centre and the lovely Amble harbour area.But be warned the noise from the above apartment is pretty loud at times and there is a huge building site directly in the view from the windows.

A lovely flat, shame about the lack of parking due to ground clearance work at the rear, which spoilt the view across to Warkworth Castle. Advance notice would have helped. Otherwise, very cosy and surprisingly quiet. Very comfortable bed!

Great location. Settee a little annoying as the cushions slide forward a little, however it didn’t spoil the stay. Comfortable bed and overall a very satisfying holiday
