Awesome vacation spot
After a long tour of Ireland and Scotland, this flat was exactly what we needed. It was bright, clean, quiet, easy parking and a great location. Easy to walk to restaurants, shopping and pubs. Great communication with John! Thanks so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful flat.

We really liked the quietness and privacy. The views across the port and river to the town itself were a constant delight. No negative observations to report at all. We would happily return.

Comfy Stay.
Mill Wharf is situated in an ideal place to use as a base to explore the local area. From the Scottish Borders to North Northumberland there are lots of lovely places to visit. When you've been out exploring and walking all day its a pleasure to return to this warm comfy apartment. There is everything you could need for a good stay. After a night in the most comfortable bed you're rested to start all over again. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely location and apartment
This is our second stay at Mill Wharf and we were delighted to return. The apartment is warm, very clean, comfortable and equipped with everything you need. The views across the harbour are delightful and there is always something interesting to watch. We saw a variety of birds and seals during our stay. The welcome basket is a lovely touch, filled with local produce.

Wonderful Berwick stay
We had a very comfortable stay in this lovely apartment. The views over the working harbour were delightful - always something different to look at. The location was brilliant. We enjoyed walking to Bridge Street to enjoy the many places to eat. We walked the Berwick Walls, and other places. The supermarket was close to walk to as was Spittal (enjoyed lovely early morning runs to Spittal and back). Recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable place to stay in Berwick.

Perfect Place to Stay
This was a return visit to Mill Wharf and to Berwick-upon-Tweed. The flat was again very comfortable, well kitted out and just perfect for a relaxing stay. It is easy walking distance into town - 10mins walk to Bridge Street with it's high quality (but reasonably priced) bars and restaurants. You can also wander off in the opposite direction for a walk on the beach or along the Spittal Promenade. The apartment's free and secure car parking is a welcome bonus. Shops and other facilities are all at hand. I'm sure we'll return again. Highly recommended.

Lovely views close to amenities and felt secure
We really enjoyed our 4 night break. The homemade rhubarb and ginger jam made by Christine the owner was amazing and the food hamper great. It would have been nice for a small bottle of milk to be in fridge on arrival for a cuppa, however good little grocery shop a few yards along from apartment. We found the bed to be very comfortable. Apartment and parking secure. Amazing views from lounge windows. All very relaxing. Lovely walk over bridge to Berwick On Tweed town centre with its locally owned shops and restaurants , also a handful of well as known high street shops. We would not hesitate to recommend this apartment, but don’t get a fright like I did if the cleaners on the last day of your visit try the door vigorously and loudly more than an hour before nominated checkout time of 10.30am.

A short stay in Tweedmouth
The apartment was very clean, well equipped and attractively laid out. There are great views across the harbour with lots of bird life and seals. There is a supermarket close by and it’s a ten minute walk across the bridge into Berwick. There is plenty of information in the apartment.

A comfortable base for exploring an interesting area
We enjoyed our stay at 8 Mill Wharf. The highlight was the view, across the river to Berwick, and out to sea, from the windows. Interesting to see movements of shipping, the tides, and swans. The flat was comfortable, and well equipped, The location is good, with shops for essential supplies nearby, and a bigger selection within walking distance in Berwick. We liked the secure private parking, as we could leave car, and walk into Berwick, which is interesting to explore, and it is a good walk in the other direction to Spittal Beach, and along the promenade there.

Great place to stay.
The apartment was very well placed for us being only a short walk over the bridge to the town. Instructions to access the apartment were straightforward and comprehensive and the A to Z in the apartment had everything you needed to know. Kitchen was fully kitted out and there was plenty of room to lounge about if the weather wasn’t the best. Plenty of walks around the area and enough bars and restaurants close by to keep most people happy. Bed was comfortable, shower hot and all the apartment was scrupulously clean. Easy to find with satnav and not difficult without. Great place to stay.

Quiet location just outside centre. Secure parking and when the Old Bridge re-opened gave good access to restaurants and pubs. Used the bus by ASDA to get to Train Station for Edinburgh trains. Apartment clean and good facilities. Overall excellent value.

What more could you want?
This is a great apartment in a brilliant location. With a short walk into a the thriving and hugely interesting historic town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, and a short drive to beautiful seascape and countryside, there really wasn't more that we could want from our stay at the lovely Mill Wharf apartment. The size and comfort of the apartment, secure parking, views from the 3rd floor window, coupled with great service and great communication justly deserve the top marks we give to the whole experience. We will return!

Spacious with views towards town walls
Lovely spacious apartment for 2 people with secure off road parking. Bedroom a bit tight on space but great living/dining/kitchen room looking out on Berwick Town walls. Easy to walk into town and good access to the road network when sightseeing in local area. Would recommend a visit to the local Chain Bridge Honey farm, delicious honey and very friendly.

Nicely located property with lovely views across the Tweed and a short stroll across the river to the town. Secure parking was a bonus. The apartment is quite comfortable, clean and reasonably well equipped. Unfortunately we found the bed and pillows too firm for us.
