Situated in the heart of traditional, historic Seahouses, Puffin Cottage is located just a few steps from the bustling harbour in this truly picturesque seaside village. The main street is just a short stroll away where you can find a wide variety of shops, friendly pubs and restaurants.

If you want to explore the area, there is so much to see and do. You can catch one of the many boat trips to the nearby Farne Islands to see local wildlife such as puffins and seals and you can take a drive along the beautiful coast road to explore Bamburgh village with its magnificent castle, cross the causeway to Holy Island, spend time on the beautiful beach at Beadnell, followed by lunch in one of the great places to eat there, drive a little south to Craster and see the charming harbour and walk the coastal path to Dunstanburgh Castle remains, play golf with breath-taking views and take a beach walk at Low Newton followed by lunch and a drink in the excellent inn which also boasts its own microbrewery!

Puffin Cottage has been recently renovated, yet still retains some of its traditional features, such as a narrow corridor off the kitchen where barrels of herring were once rolled from the yard onto carts for transportation. The cottage is set over two floors with the open plan kitchen and dining area and a good size living room on the ground floor. The two bedrooms, one of which has a super-king-size bed and a Smart TV, are located on the first floor, along with the family bathroom on a three quarter landing. The cosy lounge has a log burning stove set in an original stone fire place, the ideal place to relax and plan your holiday adventures. There are two very comfortable sofas, a flat screen TV with Freeview and a DVD player and Wi-Fi. The stove and electric radiators mean the cottage stays warm, whatever the weather.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 super-king-size, 1 triple bunk (double below and single on top)
  • 1 bathroom with shower over the bath and WC

Lovely location nice cosy lounge, however there was little space in the cupboards for self catering food supplies one small cupboards. Not cleaned as we would like. Appliances could do with updating especially the oven. Shame as we stay a lot in Seahouses and was disappointed

Cosy dog friendly cottage near to harbour with its own parking space, can be a little tight getting out. Pub next door gets lively over weekend but knew this before booking. Would use again.

Very comfortable stay, the bed was especially comfy. Just a short stroll to the beach and harbour down the hill, or shops via a lane on the level. The stove works well, kindling, logs etc can be bought at the garage on the main road.

The cottage is in a perfect location near to everything. We slept so great in the comfortable beds and enjoyed cosy nights in by the fire. It was good to have a parking space out front, even if it was a little tight I still fit my large car on it.

It is a great cottage, very comfortable, clean and well equipped. The location was great, though as next to a pub, we could hear the live music at the weekend. The parking is better suited for one car, but we did manage with two. We loved the cottage and the area. Lots to do and see, we had a fabulous holiday.

Location good but not if you dont like loud music from pub next door. The place was filthy when we arrived specifically the kitchen floor and bathroom. Contacted provider who said they would send someone but we had already done it ourselves not a great start to the holiday especially for the cost a clean place is a basic need
