Guest Access:
Guests have access to the full property.
The keys to The Watchtower can be accessed via a secure key safe.
There is free parking located on site.
The Neighborhood:
The Watchtower is located in the small village of Waren Mill, just a short distance from Belford. Ideally situated on the Northumberland coast, but also with the wilderness of the Northumberland National Park close by, you really do have lots to discover.
Right on the coast, The Watchtower is in an incredible setting. You can enjoy long, quiet walks and energetic hikes through the countryside and along the coast. The area is packed with wildlife and even features a nature reserve close by, so birds like wildfowl and waders can be seen passing through in droves during the winter.
Belford has a thriving and friendly market square at its centre, brimming with independent shops, restaurants and inns. The Holy Island of Lindisfarne can be seen from various points around the village and is within easy reach. It’s an ideal base for those wanting to partake in a spot of fishing and golfing.
The Watchtower is just a short 5-minute drive from the gorgeous coastal town of Bamburgh. Here you’ll find miles of stunning sandy shores and Bamburgh Castle, which is one of the finest castles in the country. Standing on the Northumberland coastline for over 1,400 years, there is a wealth of history to uncover.
Getting Around:
The Watchtower is located within short driving time to beautiful areas within Northumberland such as Bamburgh, Seahouses and Beadnell. There are excellent travel links as the apartment is only a short distance from the A1.
The closest train station is Berwick-upon-Tweed, which is roughly a 25-minute drive from The Watchtower so local towns in Northumberland can easily be reached via rail.
There are a number of bus stops throughout Belford. Hop on the 418 service to explore Bamburgh, Beadnell, Alnwick and Alnmouth amongst others. The X18 route travels between Newcastle and Berwick upon Tweed with stops in Morpeth, Amble and Seahorses.
Newcastle Airport is roughly one hour away by car.

This property is just as described. It has great views over the birding sanctuary. While it is a bit out of town, it is close enough to explore this coast easily and have a quiet place to relax in between excursions. There is a lift to the first floor where the apartment is and there are stairs inside the apartment to the living and kitchen area. The small bathroom has a shower and the larger bathroom has a tub. We enjoyed our stay and recommend it to others.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2026
It was a hassle to get the information for checking in but it did all work okay. On arrival, it was hugely disappointing that the fridge was switched off (why?) so we couldn't cool the food or drinks we brought in the car. The fridge was also not working properly - one of the doors didn't shut properly as the magnetic seal had gone, so a couple of times the door didn't close at all and the food and drinks were warm. We also found that the kettle didn't work - the light came on but the element did not heat up, so we had to use a saucepan to boil water all week.We also found that the kitchen and bathrooms were not very clean, especially the areas like skirtings, floors and door frames. Unpleasant, so we cleaned. Beds were comfortable and bed linen was soft and pleasant. but the blinds were not blackout blinds so I struggled to sleep. My bedroom was so small there was only room for the bed, so I had to put all my stuff on a windowsill - worth knowing if you are coming in winter with more than summer light clothing.
