A most amazing apartment for 5. It was spotless with a well equipped kitchen. The welcome pack was a brilliant touch with the most gorgeous flowers too. It was so welcoming, homely and cozy with the radiators at a perfect temperature when we first went in and later having to turn them down. My son turned his radiator off as his bedroom was cozy andRead more warm and he kept it off all week even though it was chilly outdoors. It was also nice to have a bath and not just showers. It was a perfect size for 5 adults and 2 dogs. We all slept really well and a perfect chill out and a real nice walk across the road to the beach and a lovely walk into Seahouses for the best fish and chips. We look forward to going back. Hide

Location is incredible - youd struggle to get better!! Beautiful sea views with perfect access down to the beach, whilst an easy walk into Seahouses, the nearest pub/cafe and the bus stop is round the corner!! It is cosy for 5 adults, however how much time are you spending indoors with a location like this!! Just be mindful the fridge is small, witRead moreh just a tiny freezer space, so dont bring a weeks shop expecting to fit it all in!! Wed stay definitely stay again! Hide

Couldnt ask for a better stay on the Northumberland coast. Close enough to walk to town ( we took our mid 80s mothers who managed it all ok) and just outside the hubbub. Everything had been thought of for an enjoyable, comfortable stay
