Really great location to access everything Seahouses has to offer. There is no outside space with the property which did mean taking our dogs out first and last thing, but we were aware of that. The Schooner Pub across the road does cause some noise particularly when closing and customers are leaving, but all over well before midnight and it's a veRead morery handy dog friendly bolthole. The cottage itself is lovely for two people. It might have been a bit of a squeeze if there were more adults. Hide

Kipper Cottage is a charming property located in the centre of Seahouses. It has been modernised and updated and is clean and comfortable. For the two of us there was plenty of space but any more than two would be something of a squeeze. There are two pubs located opposite the cottage, one of which has live music at the weekend. We were not troubleRead mored by this however and the music stopped at 11pm. Hide

Good location for all amenities, and costal walks. A busy, bustling resort. Nice seaside place and access to other areas and places of interest. However , the cottage was small and rather cramped with no outdoor space attached. A little too close to the Schooner Inn. Patrons gathering outside smoking and socialising. Live entertainment and on occasRead moreions noisy. Locals usng the Schooner Inn frequently parked directly outside the lounge window on double yellow lines. Hide

The cottage is set in a great location and the 2 pubs opposite didn't bother us at all and the locals were freindly. The food in all the pubs were excellent the Sunday lunch in the Bamburgh castle inn was good but order the small plate there is not much difference from the large one all in all we had a great time.

We thought the second bedroom was very small to be a double more like a single. It said a starter pack of logs would be available upon arrival up to the end of April we arrived on the 29th and there wasnt any and it was cold. It was insinuated that we had returned home with two hand towels by mistake which we definitely hadnt! However the cans of gRead morein and tonic were most welcome on arrival and we were grateful to see that milk, bread and dog treats were supplied. Hide

The cottage is in a perfect location for exploring the coast and the Cheviots. Its' position in Seahouses is great for watching the harbour activity and it is only a very short walk to the main car park. It is directly opposite two pubs, one of which has a superb restaurant and although both are busy it is not intrusive and everyone is very friendlRead morey. The cottage itself is fairly small and quite basic but it is comfortable with everything that you really need. We enjoyed our stay there immensely. Hide

The bedrooms were a bit cramped, and pub opposite played loud music until 12am 4 out of 7 nights. The cottage was very cold on arrival and smelt musty. Although once the heating was on the musty smell disappeared. Would have been nice if the heating had been put on low before hand. Beds were amazingly comfortable and we slept very well.
