The cottage was perfectly situated very close to the harbour and all other amenities in Seahouses. It felt very welcoming clean and tidy on arrival. The owner was very helpful and responsive when had a query. The welcome gifts were a nice touch.

Stayed for a week - Lovely little cottage in a central location in Seahouses. No parking outside the property (although it doesn't stop people using the pub across the road from doing so which was a pain) but the parking permit is useful, it's a 4 min walk to the nearest car park (can use all over Northumberland).

Lovely cottage in a good location. Its a shame me theres no parking by the property however we didnt find this much of a problem. You can load and unload without any issues and the parking permit meant we didnt have to pay for parking. We love Seahouses and would definitely go back and stay in this cottge.

Really lovely welcome gifts were left, especially the homemade marmalade.

We have just returned from Kipper Cottage in Seahouses. A very comfortable, cosy cottage seconds from the harbour. The cottage is very well equipped: washing machine was invaluable with our 5 month old, clothes horse , dishwasher, cute crockery and glassware ample for 4 adults. We didn't cook at home but there was a well equipped kitchen. Comfy bedRead mores, choice of pillows, efficient central heating and hot water, log burner. Pub opposite with live weekend music - noisy but over by 11pm. Very happy! Hide

A cosy and comfortable cottage in a fabulous location, and although it is directly opposite the pub it really doesn't cause any noise issues even on the busier nights.
