Guests say
Seaview House in Seahouses is highly praised for its stunning sea views, spaciousness, and prime location for beach access and local amenities. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and secure garden. While some minor maintenance issues and suggestions for improvements are noted, the overall experience is very positive, with many guests planning return visits.
The property is consistently described as spotlessly clean upon arrival, with only one report of an issue that was promptly addressed. The high standard of cleanliness contributes significantly to the guests' positive experiences.
The location is exceptional, with guests raving about the proximity to the beach, stunning views of the Farne Islands and Bamburgh Castle, and the short walk to local shops and amenities. It's a highlight for many visitors.
Comfort is generally well-received, with comfortable beds and a warm atmosphere. However, some guests mention issues with sofa comfort and suggest the addition of blackout blinds and curtains for better sleep quality.
Facilities are mostly praised, especially the well-stocked kitchen and secure garden. Some criticisms include the need for better frying pans, hairdryers, and a kettle in the utility room. Maintenance responsiveness is noted as very good.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the host, so it is not possible to assess this category. Therefore, the score is set to null.

Two of the double bedrooms and a shower room are on the ground floor, where there is also a utility room leading to a lovely sun room, which overlooks the large enclosed garden. Enjoy dining al fresco whilst watching the children and pets play. The spacious living/dining room runs the full length of the house, and is located on the first floor to maximise the amazing sea views over golden sands and towards Bamburgh Castle from the full height windows. The kitchen, additional bathroom and master bedroom, also with large windows, are on the first floor.
Seaview House is located at St Aidan on the fringe of the traditional fishing village of Seahouses, where there are tea rooms, restaurants, pubs and shops, all within a short walk. Take a trip to the Farne Islands and see the nesting seabirds and grey seal colonies. The picture postcard village of Bamburgh, protected by its dramatic fortress, is 2 miles north, with its wide golden sandy beach where the tidal island of Lindisfarne can be viewed. Steeped in history, Waren Mill is a further 2 miles up the coast. Once an important port, its harbour has long since disappeared, silted up beneath the sands of the estuary. The bird sanctuary at Budle Bay has a vast expanse of mud flats at low tide, which is home to thousands of sea and land birds, perfect for keen birdwatchers. The market town of Alnwick, with its castle and many facilities, is a few miles inland. Alnwick Garden, with its Grand Cascade waterfall and restaurant within the largest treehouse in Europe, is within easy reach and a popular attraction. Horse riding is available nearby and there is an impressive golf course on the links close by. Seaview House offers an idyllic coastal retreat for families and friends looking to explore the Heritage Coast, designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Beach 50 yards. Shop, pub and restaurant 700 yards.

Nice clean cottage with plenty of room and parking. The view is stunning and Seahouses is just a short walk away. The house is nice and warm and is well equipped. We would definitely stay there again.

This is a lovely house in a great location. It was very well equipped and spotlessly clean. We had a problem with a large amount of water coming through the utility room ceiling which we were told was an "ongoing problem". We also found the very large lounge/diner to be cold with 2 walls of glass and only one radiator and no curtains. We would stay in Seaview House again in the warmer months of the year.
