The hotel revamp includes £100,000 on a new kitchen, while there are plans for a new food and drinks menu with a focus on high-quality seafood and local produce plus private dining options and a fine-dining experience.

Kyle Mackings, chief executive, said: “I had my first ever holiday at Bamburgh and have loved the area ever since, so when The Lord Crewe became available, I was immediately interested.
“Its location is fantastic – it’s just a stone’s throw away from the beach and Bamburgh Castle.
“The Lord Crewe has stunning views of the castle and is in an ideal location for tourists who are looking to stay at Bamburgh and day-trippers alike.
