Nestled on the outskirts of the pretty harbourside village of Seahouses, enjoy boat trips, windswept coastal walks, and soft golden sand only half a mile away from this lovingly furnished coastal getaway. Welcoming six guests, this is the ultimate retreat for families and groups of friends looking to experience everything the Northumberland coast has to offer.
Boasting a striking combination of traditional features and stunning contemporary touches, there’s a warming ambience throughout the cottage that invites you to relax and unwind. Hunker down in the homely lounge to soothe weary walking muscles as children let off some steam in the cosy snug, which features a sofa bed to accommodate an extra guest on request. Creative minds will not be disappointed with the contemporary kitchen/diner that provides plenty of space to try some new local flavours with the whole gang. The en-suite king-size, super-king-size (which can be made up as a twin), and twin (which can be made up as a king-size) bedrooms all feature crisp linens and everything you need for a dreamy rest. Soak up the last of the evening’s sunshine by dining alfresco on the patio or strolling the shared lawn.
Home to a bustling harbour and gloriously golden beach, the charming village of Seahouses is a playground for outdoor activities. Those who love life on the water can jump aboard a boat trip from Seahouses Harbour (1 mile) to the Farne Islands, one of Europe’s most important bird sanctuaries. Back on dry land, enjoy building sandcastles and trekking the dunes of Seahouses Beach (1 mile) before joining the coast path to stroll to the iconic coastal fortress of Bamburgh Castle, 3.5 miles away. Culture vultures can also enjoy the second-largest inhabited castle in the country at Alnwick, and reputedly England’s most haunted castle at Chillingham, both reached within 15 miles.
