Property code: CN103

A typically British seaside stay is on offer here in Northumberland, ticking the boxes for all of your family members – including the four-legged ones! Perfectly appointed for a family of six and two canine companions, this pretty little cottage provides the ideal base for long days of fetch on the beach and coastal walkies. Enjoy exploring this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty far and wide before heading home to unwind in comfort.

Truly welcoming throughout, this charming cottage will feel like a home-from-home. Featuring a neutral colour scheme throughout, the odd nautical touch and sturdy oak furniture, the cottage truly feels like a seaside bolthole. Head into the cosy lounge and watch Fido and Rover make a beeline for the wood burner, letting the flickering flames dry off wet fur. Man’s best friend will adore having their entire pack by their side on an evening, enjoying films on the Smart TV and Blu-ray player and resting up for the days ahead. When it’s time for bed you’ll find three cosy bedrooms, one of which has a charming feature fireplace and another with bunk-beds, ideal for children. Leave your beloved bow-wows snoozing downstairs and settle in for an unforgettable night’s sleep.

Located in bustling Seahouses, the property lies just 500 metres from the village’s shops, pubs and busy harbour. Pack up your tennis balls, buckets and spades to embark on a trip to the local beach (1 mile), where dogs can run on the sand whilst children splash in the sea. Sniff out adventure along the coastline, wandering up to the famous Bamburgh Castle (3 miles), exploring the grounds with your pets in tow. Alternatively, head to the harbour and enjoy a boat trip to the Farne Islands (3 miles), spotting puffins, seals and exotic birds!

A really nice cottage just round the corner from the harbour and all the shops. Plenty of room inside for a family group with loads of plates, dishes etc. Off road parking is helpful in the area but the yard isn't secure if you need to let the dogs out occasionally. Really happy with our choice.

Dont stay until the property has been deep cleaned. I did contact mgmt co who sent in a cleaner but much of the grime was a build up over time. Mattress and duvet were both badly stained when I took linen off on last day. TV did not work but again repair was organised. Both of these points raised on a previous review but nothing actioned.

We stayed here twice in the past and thats why we were back! We were fortunate to be there in excellent weather but the house is great even if the weather isnt. The location is perfect, house is comfy and well equipped and off street parking is a bonus - 2 small cars fit on with space to spare. A lovely holiday in all respects. Thanks!

The cottage was found to be clean & tidy being well placed close to the main high street where food & general supply shops are found. larger towns such as Alnwick are a 30 minute drive where one can find most things & Berwick about the same further north. The property is close to the harbour, the nearby village of Beadnell and Bamburgh so, for anyoRead morene looking for a peaceful stroll, is ideally suited. There is no street sign but the property is easy to find. On occasion, it can be tight to park. Hide

Nice home, lovely location. Felt like we paid a lot for it but was on par for cottages this year. There were some minor issues ( sticky residue on table that wouldn't shift and no cleaning sprays, bleaches etc provided) but comfy, well furnished lounge and main bed was extremely comfy made for a great getaway. Would come back.

Central, close to the harbour, easy parking (for one car. 2 cars possible but awkward) and quiet. The cottage is well equipped and comfortable with reliable WiFi. The only downside really is the single bathroom that is the opposite of en-suite.
