The 18th century mill house, from which our holiday cottages have been created, is thought to be on the site of the original mill that served the monks on Lindisfarne for many centuries. Today, the exterior retains all the style and charm of the original building, whilst the interiors have benefited from the highest quality eco conversion and have been finished with superior quality furnishings and equipment.The Mill House and The Stables both have beautiful conservatories with glorious sea views. Whilst the Byre and its south-east facing garden share these wonderful views, it also has a charming west facing courtyard garden.
Each holiday cottage has been individually styled with comfort and luxury in mind, with beautiful designer fabrics used throughout. The cottages are extremely well insulated so you'll stay warm and cosy whatever the season. The living rooms have a flat-screen TV and are furnished with deep, comfy sofas and armchairs. The kitchens are equipped with all the gadgetry and essentials serious cooks expect, including food processors, great knives and plenty of good crockery, cutlery and glasses, so you aren't constantly emptying the dishwasher. Many of the bedrooms enjoy beautiful sea views. The beds are blissfully comfortable and each bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom (each with a shower and most with baths too). Twin beds can usually be converted to doubles where required. Top quality bed linens and deep, fluffy towels complete the picture. As well as a portable TV in each cottage, there is a flat-screen TV in each living room, plus, a DVD player, a small selection of DVDs, a radio, plenty of books, board games, cards, maps, walking guides, binoculars, free wireless Internet, and iPod docking stations so you won't be bored, even - dare we say it - on a rainy day! For sunny days, there are swimming towels and Harris Tweed picnic blankets. Lindisfarne Bay Cottages offer a wonderful setting for group bookings wishing to secure more than one property in the same location. Each cottage has its own good-sized, landscaped garden with mature trees and wonderful sea views. Each has a barbeque area, herb garden and ample car parking space.Lindisfarne Bay Cottages are set immediately on the water's edge overlooking Holy Island and Lindisfarne Castle. The bay is sheltered by Holy Island, so the tide laps gently at the foot of the garden.
In this stunning location, you will find unrivalled bird-watching opportunities, especially during the migratory season. Joggers will enjoy the quiet country lanes and keen cyclists will appreciate that access to the Coast and Castles Cycle Way is very near. At night, the lack of light pollution makes for perfect star gazing.
