Home description
Stunning cottage allowing you to truly experience the best of both worlds. It is set in a peaceful location but is also centrally positioned close to all the amenities and places of interest. It has recently been refurbished in a careful and tasteful manor to maintain the character and original features with the beamed ceilings and open fireplace.
The lounge is spacious with plenty of space to relax after a day out exploring the local area. You can chill out in front of the log fire and watch TV or a DVD. If this is not for you then why not enjoy a board game or simply sit back and read one of the many books we have left. With the beamed ceilings, open fire place and traditional brickwork the property offers a traditional and authentic old English feel to it.
The kitchen is completely new and has all the modern facilities you could ask for. The main bedroom is a large, tastefully decorated furnished room with plenty of air and light coming in. The second bedroom has two single beds views across the coastline.

Discover more castles than anywhere else in England, the birthplace of English Christianity on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, the historic World Heritage Site of Hadrian's Wall, stunning Alnwick Garden picturesque towns and villages and much more.

The harbour is just around the corner and there are many pubs, shops and restaurants to choose from along Main Street.
The Farne Islands can be reached by regular boat trips from Seahouses harbour. Great for bird lovers and geologists.
The historic town of Alnwick is only 10 miles away where you will find a thriving, historic market town with something a bit special! Even if you are not green fingered, a visit to Alnwick Gardens is a must, where you can stroll around the stunning gardens and waterfalls. Harry Potter fans of all ages should visit Alnwick Castle (or Hogwart’s School) and relive some of the favourite scenes from the popular films.
The Heritage coastline is dotted with castles and villages and stunning beaches – ideal for walking all year round. The Cheviot Hills are only a short drive away offering superb views across to Holy Island and Lindisfarne. Alternatively, a stroll along the coats to Bamburgh Castle (only 1 mile away) or a visit to Holy Island are both ideal for a family day out.
