We look forward to welcoming you to The Old Bakery, self catering accommodation, from Easter until mid-Autumn when we close for the winter for your relaxing holiday on Northumberland's beautiful coast. The Old Bakery has been lovingly restored and is a mix of industrial and traditional features including the original victorian bread oven, above which is a restricted headheight bed platform in the roof space. It is modern convenience married with its history. The Old Bakery is situated within the shared courtyard of the main building, accessed directly from the street via the vennel door, under the Bushell. Your personal terrace is behind The Old Bakery within our garden. A sandy beach is approximately 350m away where stunning sunrises accross the water and dolphins are regularly seen and worth getting up for!
We look forward to welcoming you to our property which has been lovingly restored to reflect its past. The Old Bakery dates back to Georgian times and was modernised to a Victorian white oven in 1881. When we moved here, we took on the renovation of the whole property and being true to its roots was high on our agenda. We would love to share our part of Northumberland with you and meeting our guests is a joyful experience. We hope you will agree that The Old Bakery and the stunning surrounding area are well worth a visit.
Spittal is a village just the other side of the river Tweed (well known for its salmon) from Berwick upon Tweed (1mile). It has one local shop, 3 pubs, cliff walks, a magnificent beach, promenade with a cafe and play areas. Berwick itself has had a colourful past, fought over by the Scottish and English. The town walls date back to Elizabethan times in places and was a garison town with the Kings Own Scottish Borderers Museum well worth a visit. There are Holy Island, Bamburgh Castle, the Farne Islands, Paxton House, Union Suspension (Chain) Bridge, Alnwick Castle and Gardens (Harry Potter) to name but a few of the nearby attactions. Berwick has a direct train line to Edinburgh and Newcastle, should you wish to visit.
