  • Gorgeous seaside cottage, perfect for memorable family holidays
  • Spacious, open-plan design with cosy log burner and spiral staircase
  • Easy access to the coastal path, golf course and other local attractions
Property code: CN153

Escape the hustle of everyday life with a tranquil seaside escape. This charming cottage is located on the coastal path between Seahouses (0.5 miles) and Beadnell (1.5 miles), making it perfect for outdoor-loving families and their sand-loving hound. Sleeping four across 2 bedrooms, and with a light-filled conservatory and garden, there’s space here for everyone to relax and unwind.

Entering the property from the rear garden, you’ll find yourself in the welcoming open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Cook up a storm in the kitchen while the rest of the family chat beside you at the dining table. If it’s sunny, step outside into the south-facing, lawned garden and patio, which makes the perfect spot for al fresco dining. When your bellies are full, retreat to the cosy lounge area where, on cold nights, you’ll take great delight in firing up the wood burner in the stone-built feature fireplace. If you’re after even more serenity, soak up the garden view in the large conservatory — an idyllic spot to curl up with Fido and a good book. A wrought-iron spiral staircase takes centre stage on the ground floor, leading to the three bedrooms – two doubles which boast gorgeous views of the garden and a single. Please note that due to the staircase, the cottage is not suitable for children under five years old.

Explore the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and visit the many quaint villages it boasts. Head to Bamburgh (3.5 miles) and explore the grounds of its famous castle or take a short drive to Low Newton-by-the-Sea or Embleton (both 7 miles). Seahouses’ thriving harbour is just under 1 mile away, offering cruises around the Farne Islands where you and your four-legged friend can spot the local wildlife.

Beautifully decorated cottage, very clean, well equipped and comfortable. Location within 10 minutes walk of Seahouses village and beside the coastal path.

The cottage is well situated & very comfortable, but there were some issues. The main oven didn't work & no-one acknowledged my messages about this.

The cottage was immaculate. We didnt want to leave! Had a brilliant break. Great location just across from the dunes and beach for dog walks and few mins walk to shops and restaurants. Weather was wet & windy but we were very cosy and happy to relax in the cottage. We loved Rileys Retreat and plan to return soon.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Riley Place! You open the blinds in the morning to view out over fields towards the sea! The cottage was even more gorgeous in person than in the pictures.

A beautiful cottage in Seahouses with only a short walk to the village. Lovely views from the landing out to the sea and a short walk to golf course. The owners of the cottage are very helpful and their property is spotless. We would return again!
