About the home

This great cottage, sleeping up to six people is located in the heart of the historic harbour area in Seahouses. The cottage has been tastefully renovated and still retains a narrow corridor in the kitchen where the barrels of herring and other fish were rolled from the yard onto the carts for transporting around the region. It is an ideal property where you can relax at any time of year.

There is a cosy lounge with comfortable sofas and log fire perfect for some rejuvenation. The lounge has everything you could desire to indulge in some proper relaxation either with the fire, CD radio, books, TV or simply sitting back on the sofas and taking in the tranquility the property offers.

The kitchen is modern with everything you could require. Prepare a banquet for your family and friends and entertain them around the dining table. The patio doors from the dining room lead onto a private courtyard ideal for children to play in or simply relax with a glass of wine as the sun sets.
