This cottage was perfect for us. Situated just across the road from the golf course, a nice walk through there to the large dog friendly beach. It had a safe enclosed garden for our dog. The cottage was spacious & comfortable for 4 and only a 10 min walk into the centre of Seahouses. We would definitely return.

The access through the neighbours garden wasnt mentioned before booking and felt a bit intrusive with our puppy. Though they were friendly. Also Id wrongly read that there were sea views. It was the cleanest house Ive ever rented, perfect.

Rileys retreat is in the perfect location. Its a little strange to have to access the building via the neighbours garden but they were very friendly. The cottage is clean, well maintained and has a lovely garden and conservatory both of which we really enjoyed. Gorgeous beach 3-4 mins walk across the golf course .

If you’re looking for a seaside holiday with a difference, visit Northumberland – a region brimming with beautiful golden, sandy beaches, rolling hills, craggy moorland, bustling market towns and fishing villages, and more castles than in any other county in England.

Situated in the North East of England, this designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty boasts no less than 39 miles of unspoilt coastline to explore and a calendar packed with exhilarating water sports options. To indulge in a spot of surfing, kayaking or powerboating, take a trip to one of the many breath-taking Northumberland beaches - where dogs love a good walk and fresh local seafood is never far away.

Home to the awe-inspiring Cheviot Hills and the historical Hadrian’s Wall, the Northumberland National Park is renowned for its open spaces, award-winning Dark Skies and stunning rural backdrops - and is the least populated national park in Britain. Offering access to challenging hikes, horse-riding, rock-climbing and a multitude of other action-packed activities, the park is one of the region’s greatest draws.

There is a huge range of spectacular wildlife and sea life waiting to be sighted, whether you take a boat ride to the Farne Islands to admire the colony of Atlantic grey seals and puffins, or explore the Kielder Water and Forest Park, home to magnificent ospreys. If it’s history you’re looking for, the imposing Bamburgh Castle and the world-famous Alnwick Castle are undoubtedly worth a visit.

Alternatively, if you’re seeking the bright lights of a city adventure, Newcastle upon Tyne is the place to go. Here, you can experience world-class culture, outstanding attractions, superb shopping, impressive live shows, top entertainers and delicious cuisine in abundance.
