Overview

Sample the village's renowned smoked produce or dine on freshly caught seasonal fish from the North Sea. The area provides plenty of activities including golf, horse riding, fishing, cycling, and walking trails, along with communal tennis courts just around the corner.

Good location with off street parking. Comfortable for two with sunny conservatory for breakfast and outside seating. Hot water is just a trickle but electric shower ok. Poor quality cutlery.

Wonderful bungalow in a really peaceful location. Everything was fabulous, luxury bedlinen and towels. Five minutes walk to Seahouses centre. It had everything you needed on holiday and had spacious living accommodation. Loved the conservatory. Wonderful beach walks every day and fish and chips at Lewiss were delicious!

The cottage is lovely and comfortable, a really quiet spot, with the conservatory a super spot to sit in. A few minutes walk to the shops and with glorious beaches on both sides of Seahouses, a beautiful place to recharge and enjoy the wonder of Northumberland.

Very comfortable bungalow and well placed for amenities in Seahouses and exploring the area. Weather is not too bad (apart from Storm Agnes rain & wind!) Lots of beach walks & visited Holy Island, Alnwick Gardens, Bamburgh and Howick Hall.

Had a great time here. 6 of us managed perfectly well in the cottage & found it perfect & comfortable. If you like walking then the walks to Bamburgh & Beadnell are very nice and not too far. Alnwick is a must to visit too- especially the gardens and Barter Books if you like book shops.

The house was clean and comfortable. The location was lovely and quiet. The conservatory was in an awkward location through the bedroom so there wasnt a lot of space for every guest. The kitchen was in need of more utensils and possibly bigger toaster - cooking toast for 6 people took a while. No iron and board was a real pain and is a must for aRead more holiday cottage these days! Main issue was not changing linen and towels mid break. If we had paid/ booked for 2 separate weeks we would have automatically had fresh linen. Feels very grubby as most people I know change their bedding once a week. This should not have been at an extra cost to us considering the cost of the booking already. We were going to rebook for next year but the cost for same two weeks in 2024 has gone up by almost 300 for same time period! This is extortionate and so we definitely wont be rebooking. Not as good service as Northumbria cottages sorry! Hide
