  • Charming cottage on the harbourside, overlooking the Northumberland coastline
  • Located in the heart of the old town close to shops and restaurants
  • Uninterrupted views across the bay towards the Farne Islands
Property code: CN097

Watchman's Cove offers lovely, seaside holiday accommodation for up to 6 guests in 3 bedrooms and is located right on the harbour wall in the old quarter of Seahouses village.  The cottage has beautiful, uninterrupted sea views from the lounge and all bedrooms looking out towards the Farne Islands.

The property sleeps up to 6 people over three floors with all rooms enjoying sea views. The living accommodation is open-plan with a small balcony which overlooks the harbour. The two twin bedrooms on the ground floor share a good-sized family bathroom and the spiral staircase (N. B. can be steep for some) leads from the lounge up to the master bedroom and en-suite shower room on the second floor.

Relax and enjoy the morning sunrise and the glorious sunsets from the comfort of Watchman's Cove. From here, you have a very short walk to the beach, the shops, friendly pubs, restaurants and local attractions in the village, including the boat trips to the Farne Islands to see the bird and wild life. Take the coastal path along to Bamburgh to see the magnificent castle and spend some time in the pretty village there browsing its range of independent shops and restaurants, visit the Grace Darling Museum or take a picnic to the fantastic beach. Beadnell Bay can be reached on foot or by car in 3 minutes in the other direction, where you can watch the various water sports, try your hand at rock-pooling; or have a meal in one of the great pub/restaurants in the village. Watchman's Cove is an excellent choice as a base to explore from or simply, to relax, unwind and enjoy the views!

Lovely stay at Harbour View Cottage. Wonderful views of the harbour and beyond. The cottage is very well equipped with everything you will need on holiday. The complementary wine on arrival was a nice touch. Fantastic location right in the centre but also very quiet, that could be because of the time of year we visited.

Absolutely fab. We had a lovely week and being January, the large windows afforded a fantastic view of the harbour and islands when the weather prevented an outing. Very comfortable all round; will definitely be back next year.

Absolutely stunning view and well placed to enjoy beach and town, but the accommodation was a little tired in places. More checks needed regarding cleaning and replacing light bulbs and burned out frying pans. The twin beds were more comfortable than some we've encountered and the rooms are pleasantly decorated.

Lovely, comfortable apartment in a great location, with a phenomenal view out onto Seahouses harbour and the Farne Islands. As others have mentioned, the narrow spiral staircase would be tricky for anyone with mobility difficulties, but we did fine (and managed to get a fairly chunky suitcase up and down it). Very clean, and well appointed. A reallRead morey great base to explore the coastal walks from, and a really great apartment to relax in after a long walk in the cold north sea breeze! Hide

A lovely property in an amazing location! The completely open plan living/dining/kitchen area makes for a perfect family holiday. Views from that room are wonderful, and always something to watch. All amenities..shops, restaurants, coastal paths, are within a few minutes walking distance, and if you enjoy a cocktail....visit The Black Swan. CommuniRead morecation with the hosts was excellent, my family and I had a perfectly lovely week. Hide
