Property code: OC-GD1735

This special escape just for two makes the perfect base for walking the coast path, exploring the shops and eateries of Seahouses or simply relaxing and recharging at home. Comfortable and cosy, it has a stylish, bright lounge and a lovely garden for relaxing.

Enter this end-of-terrace house via the four stone steps to its front door. Inside, you’ll find a bright and airy lounge where a wood-burner-effect electric stove provides a lovely focal point. An evening spent here is bound to make you feel recharged. The kitchen/diner is another wonderful space, with everything the cook could need to create delicious holiday meals and snacks, and a sweet dining table for four in the corner. The pale, muted colours of downstairs continue on the first floor in the tranquil king-size bedroom and the sleek bathroom. There’s space on the small patio to sit and enjoy a morning coffee or a sundowner while you admire the beautiful garden with its well-tended lawn and flower borders.

The heart of the popular village of Seahouses is less than 100m from the property, and here you can wander the interesting shops, visit the iconic fish smokehouse, enjoy an excellent fish-and-chip takeaway or while away an evening in a friendly pub. Don’t miss out on a boat trip to the Farne Islands, an important bird sanctuary, where you can see puffins in the spring and summer. If you want to try some outdoor activities, cycling, golf, riding, fishing, surfing and scuba diving are all available nearby. Alternatively, a stroll along the coast path takes you to Bamburgh and its magnificent castle in 3.5 miles, or the incredible Alnwick Castle, which starred as Hogwarts in the Harry Potter films, is just 15 miles.

Great spot with ample off street parking and a lovely garden, both a real bonus vs many properties in the area. Spotlessly clean on arrival and well equipped. Mattress was really hard and uncomfortable for us both however recognise that's a personal preference.

Kingfisher Cottage is a home from home and has everything you need including off road parking. The welcome pack of necessities was a very nice touch. Lovely size bedroom and a great shower in the bathroom. We were staying in December/January so had some very cold days, the house always felt warm with the heating on. The cottage is only a 5 min Read morewalk to the main centre where you can find a Co-op and some lovely independent food and gift shops, 3 pubs and enough restaurants if you dont fancy cooking Would recommend walking on the beach to Bamburgh which takes about 1hr 20mins, visit the Grace Darling Museum while there, its an amazing story, this is based inside the RNLI shop in Bamburgh Village Beadnell is about an hours walk on the beach from Seahouses. The Northumberland coast line is amazing with some lovely places to see, Holy island is must. We also went on a boat trip to see the Farne Islands, you can do book this at Seahouses harbour, great trip of about 1hr 30mins and very informative. Would definitely recommend this cottage and would look and booking again in the future. Hide

Our second Christmas visit and this was as lovely as the first. The house was clean, comfortable and warm, the addition of the Christmas tree made it extra special. Thanks so much for the extras of the wine and chocolates that was a nice gesture. The house is ideally located for getting out by car and about and also for good coastal walks. We Read morewere extremely lucky with the weather for the time of year which made it all the better. Good parking on the drive. although situated within 200 yards or so of the start of the High Street it was so quiet, we could have been in the middle of nowhere! Excellent Indian restaurant - The Spice House, and the fish and chip shop Lewis's. Thanks for our wonderful stay. Hide
