Creel Cottage is a lovely two bedroom, stone-built fisherman’s cottage with plenty of character, located in the heart of Seahouses.  The cottage is only a few minutes away from the busy fishing harbour from where you can take boat trips across to The Farne Islands - very popular with all visitors to Seahouses. While the bustling village has a wide array of village shops, tea rooms, friendly bars and restaurants. Invigorating coastal walks can be taken right from the door - leave the car behind and enjoy walking along the coastal path to Bamburgh with its magnificent castle. Stop off for afternoon tea in the little tea rooms, visit the Grace Darling museum or have dinner in one of the renowned restaurants before heading back to Seahouses.

Just half an hour's drive from Seahouses is the famous Alnwick Castle and Gardens. The castle is one of Britain’s most iconic castles and they have an array of events on throughout the year. You can visit their state rooms, exploring the second largest inhabited castle in the UK. Dating back to 1309, its story has been intertwined with the Percy Family, who still live on site today. Next to the castle is the amazing Alnwick Gardens. With their large treehouse restaurant, this garden is one of the world's most extraordinary, contemporary gardens. You can purchase a combined ticket and visit both the gardens and the castle in one day.

The lounge in the cottage has solid oak flooring and a wood burning stove with an initial log and kindling supply, Smart TV with basic Sky package, full central heating, combi boiler and double glazing making it an ideal choice for a warm and cosy getaway all year round. The open tread staircase which may not be suitable for guests with a mobility condition, leads onto two comfortable bedrooms; one with a king-size bed and a second with bunk beds. The bathroom is located on the ground floor - ideal for a couple or a family holiday.

There is private, off-road parking for one small to medium size vehicle to the side of the property.

This is a lovely cottage we have stayed at more than once, It is ideally situated being a short walking distance of the town. (shops, restaurants etc) as well as the beach and harbour area. and a perfect base for the wider surrounding area to explore. It is very well equiped with everything you would possibly need for a family stay.

We really loved Creel Cottage. There was lots of room for a small family - our daughter loved the bunk beds- and it felt cosy and welcoming. The location was fantastic with the harbour so close, wonderful walks and lots of lovely places to eat nearby. We didnt use the wood burner as it was lovely and warm, but wed love to return in cooler months soRead more we can enjoy that too. Highly recommend! Hide

This is a great place to stay, the harbour and a great number of places to eat are within walking distance, a decent supermarket is literally 5 mins walk away. The cottage was clean and on the whole well kept, the oven and hob are showing their age and really need replacing. Beds were comfy and warm. Parking is a bind but once you've done it once oRead morer twice you find a groove and its easily done, especially as my other half watching me back in. Like all these places it has it quirks. Hide
