Perched along the busy harbourfront, this beautifully updated 18th-century cottage offers light and welcoming accommodation for couples and smaller families seeking a relaxing hideaway at the heart of the cheerful coastal village of Seahouses. With space for up to four guests, the beautiful holiday home features wooden beams, tasteful furnishings and a glass-panelled balcony with a view over the harbour and out to sea. An ideal base for walkers, beach lovers and nature spotters, this inviting hideaway is perfectly situated for exploring the area’s breathtaking countryside, historic sites, quaint market towns and magnificent woodlands.

The cottage features a spacious and cosy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with a characterful beamed ceiling. The lounge has comfortable seating, a Bluetooth speaker and a Smart TV, perfect for unwinding in the evenings. The welcoming dining table is ideal for sharing tasty family meals you can rustle up in the stylishly arranged kitchen to the rear. The ground floor also has a useful shower room.

What a beautiful cottage with incredible views over the harbour. Really well equipped and well kept. Easy, clear concise instructions and directions. A perfect retreat for this time of year, especially watching the waves over the harbour walls from the comfort of the chairs in our bedroom and a glass of sloe gin!

This was a stunning cottage situated right in the harbour with a balcony to sit and watch the world go by! Idyllic!

Just fantastic. Seahouses itself is such a lovely place and we went all over exploring - on a boat to the Farne Islands, Lindesfarne, Bamburgh, Alnwick The beach are beautiful and you can walk and walk for miles All in all, a fabulous cottage in a fabulous part of the world Would thoroughly recommend a visit Hide

Beautifully and tastefully decorated and furnished. Captivating views of harbour and sea from the balcony, with comfortable chairs just inside for colder days. Very comfortable bed and all mod cons. The cottage was very cosy, which was important in a fairly chilly week. The little lights on the stairs were very helpful, as were the two veryRead more robust hand rails on the stairs. We would book again if the opportunity arose. Hide
