The plus points first. Harbour Hideaway is in a fantastic location in Seahouses. Very handy for all the lovely local amenities. The convenient parking space is right outside the property. The decor is modern and the layout well thought out. For the size it is well equipped, the combined microwave is a larger model. We found the sofa bed to be comfoRead morertable and easy to convert from sofa to a bed. The views from the property are beautiful, with lovely walks along the coast. However, Harbour Hideaway is very small, once the sofa bed is made up, you can only just walk around it. The main space, not including the front door recess is app 2.3 metres, (less 40cm for the kitchen run, approx 1.9 metres) by 3.2 metres approx. There is a small recess for the front door. We found damp and high levels of humidity to be a problem and have provided the owner with photos. Thankfully we had lovely weather because it would be difficult drying wet coats, shoes and walking coats in such a confined space. There is very little storage space and we had to leave rucksacks, walking shoes and jackets in the car. All bedding and towels are provided but there were only two pillows, for two people. There is not room in the sofa bed storage for all the bedding, we had to leave a pillow out during the day. We stayed for five nights and found it a little challenging because of the lack of space and lack of storage. Hide

Was advised as a whole cottage when we booked when we got there it was one room with a pull out sofa bed which was not very comfortable to sleep or sit on. We found this over priced for 1 room however the location was great short walk from the town and beaches. Wouldn't recommend for a long stay okay for the 3 nights we stayed but wouldn't want to Read morehave stayed longer. Hide

This property is in a fantastic location, contains everything you should need for a short stay all brand new in immaculate condition. However, to say it is a cottage is misleading the front door opens into a small compact room which has a sofa bed and sliding door into bathroom. Very small. Ideal for short stay but wouldn't want to stay for loRead morenger due to lack of space even for 2 people. Hide
