We had a lovely stay here. Cozy cottage in a great location, with everything you need.My only complaint would be that there is no outside furniture like it shows on the pictures, which is one of the reasons we picked this.

Stayed with family and a dog. Lovely cottage. Very clean & tidy with everything we needed. Excellent location, right in the centre of town with easy walks to really great pubs / restaurants and beautiful sandy beaches. Yes, the turn into the square is a little bit tight but we were in a large 4x4 and managed it easily. Great communication with a very helpful host with quick replies. Highly recommended.

Pleasant stay

Overall a pleasant stay. Great location for easy walk into Seahouses which has some lovely bars and restaurants and nice little shops. Close to the coastal path walk and harbour. Property overall including linen and bedding were all very clean and comfortable. No issues with wifi and owner was very responsive to messages. My only wee negative was that crockery and cutlery wasn’t very clean so had to wash it all when we arrived. With such a large kitchen shame there isn’t a dishwasher.

ideally located cottage, a real home from home

First impressions on entering the property were how clean everything looked and smelled. It is in an ideal location, right next to Seahouses harbour, and a short walk to the beach and also to local shops, pubs and restaurants. We did have to contact the owner, Dawn, on one occasion in relation to the heating but Dawn answered immediately and the issue was quickly resolved. The weather was not great unfortunately but we still managed some nice walks and a boat trip to the Farne Islands, which I would heartily recommend.

Beautiful, well equipped home from home

We have just returned from a week-long stay in this lovely location. It is situated just around the corner from the harbour and had everything we needed for a relaxing and peaceful getaway. My only criticism would be that it advertised a DVD player (and I had brought along several DVDs which we were looking forward to watching) and, although there was indeed a player, it had the wrong connection for the TV and we were therefore unable to use it. Otherwise a wonderful stay. Thank You.

Property was in a great location to explore the area. Clean property. Enough storage for 2 but definitely not enough if there were 6 people staying. Name of cottage is confusing We were looking for cosy fisherman's cottage but it is called Sandy toes cottage but luckily the host Dawn is brilliant with her communication she answered her phone immediately and explained were to go and where to park. 10/10 for the host. Would we stay there again Absolutely, really enjoyed our stay

Over all we enjoyed our stay, everything was very good. The one small thing we didn’t really like was the quality of the shower. Although it was adequate, it lacked power.

Lovely getaway

Great renovation of an old sea cottage. Spacious, spotlessly clean, quiet and nicely positioned nearby the harbour, fishing boats and boat trip to Farne Islands. Only a few metres walk to seats overlooking the harbour and to fish and chips/icecreams/hot donuts. We were very happy with Seahouses and would not hesitate to stay again.

Pleasant stay

Pleasant stay. Clean house and a good location. Puffin and seal cruise is a must. Beach is walkable. Recommend the Black Swan nearby for food and also the potted lobster in Bamburgh. Need to book well in advance for the Potted Lobster! The seafood van between Seahouses and Bamburgh is great too.

Seahouses at its best

Location is brilliant. Cottage was lovely and clean. We did have an issue with WiFi for a very short time but this was quickly rectified by host which was great as we had no phone signal. The cottage was very spacious, the photos don't do it justice.

Lovely Short Stay

The house was absolutely lovely, and being so close to the beach and cliffs was really handy with three boys who wanted to get out and run about! Hopefully we will be back in the not too distant future!

Great location

We’ve had a lovely week, great location, everything you could possibly need in the house. It was clean and spacious. Parking was a bit of a problem, our space was also someone else’s space and it was very congested in there, but for us it was ok as my parents were staying in the opposite courtyard so we parked there instead. We chatted with our neighbour and came to that agreement so all good. A lovely property and would highly recommend.

So impressed

The cottage was so clean and so very well equipped. Very pretty and comfortable. It was so close to the harbour and the people around so very friendly. Two very small gripes the internet was so bad and a small garden area would have been helpful. Ihave a year old puppy and she had to be permanently on a lead. Thank you so such a wonderful few days
