Unwind with the harbour as a focal point when staying in this waterfront apartment in Northumberland’s stunning Seahouses. A panoramic sea view with French doors and a Juliet balcony offers seascapes to admire whatever the weather – watch the waves thrash from the comfort of home in the cooler months or enjoy that fresh sea air with the windows open in the summer. The property itself is a well-appointed two-bed hosting four or five guests. It’s also dog-friendly for those who wish to get to know the AONB coast with a bit of canine company.
Benefiting from an upside-down layout to make the most of the views, you’re greeted by three bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs on the ground floor. The double, twin and single bedrooms are all equipped with comfy mattresses and lovely linens. Continue to the first floor to find the main living space with the majestic views. This open-plan area features a lounge, kitchen and dining space with oak fittings and brightening wooden floorboards. Rustle up your favourite dishes in the well-equipped kitchen and choose to eat at the dining table or in front of the Smart TV.
A haven for nature lovers, Northumberland’s heritage coastline is awash with opportunities for sea life spotting. From Seahouses Harbour (less than 500 metres) you can embark on a sea safari boat tour into the open waters, visiting the Farne Islands to spot seals and puffins aplenty. You can, of course, stick to dry land and discover the area on foot, following a coastal path up to Bamburgh (3.5 miles) where a mighty castle sits beside a fabulous golden sand beach. If trips to the beach are on the agenda, be sure to check out Beadnell Bay Beach, just 2.5 miles away and wonderful for sailing, sunbathing or dog-walking.
