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 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.

The location and view from the lounge window are stunning and really enhanced our overall experience. We enjoyed the walk into Seahouses for food each evening and marvelled at the beauty of the sunset on the return trip.
The house is spacious, allowing enough room for guests to opt to be in the thick of it with the family or to sit somewhere quieter.
Outside there is ample parking on the front of the property and the fully enclosed rear garden was ideal for our dog.
We have said that we'd love to return with our granchildren too.

Really comfy house, would highly recommend

We all loved it. Wonderful place to stay. Could sit and watch the changing view all day.
Only 2 things bothered us: the extractor fans in the bathrooms didn't appear to be working and there were no cords to pull. Maybe it's just me (I've not used one before) but the drier facility of the washer/drier didn't seem to work.

We booked this for Christmas 2019.
We booked this for Christmas 2019. The house was great, perfect location and all the amenities you could ask for. We noticed other reviews saying the kitchen wasn't well equipped so we brought our own baking trays (so as not to have a spoiled xmas dinner!). Indeed the baking trays supplied were worse for wear but there was ample crockery - plenty of cups, plates and glasses so either other families have over used or the owner/managers have listented to reviews and sorted it.
Other reviews are correct in that the blinds in the front bedroom are useless and you're basically trying to sleep in daylight especially as the lights on the drive come on automatically and cannot be turned off at night. There was a large garden which was fully enclosed. The garden could do with some attention and the conservatory was too cold to use at that time of year but we could see how it would be a great addition for families in summer.
What has really let this place down for us is price and I think it's probably an issue for the area. This is Seahouses, not Florida. It's cold in winter (and most of summer) and there's not a lot to do once you've done the shops and the boat ride. The house, although lovely and well located, was not out of this world. Even though it was christmas there was no effort made to make the house nice or special like add a few decorations to warrant the higher price we paid for the Christmas period. The welcome hamper consisted of a few teabags and some buiscuits.
We paid over £1000 for a week - this was a huge treat and as it was Christmas we wanted something by the beach and this was one of the few properties left. On looking to see what the price would be at other times of the year in 2020 it's equally high. We thought about booking for Christmas next year but the price is already several hundreds more than we paid last year, way above inflation and not really justifiable.
The sad thing is while we were there the town was totally deserted. We had visited a different property in April when it was much busier. When I asked the locals they all said the same thing; much lower visitor numbers than normal and they blamed this at least in part on the cost that certain companies are charging for properties especially in school holidays. We went to the curry house for a takeaway and the restaurant was absolutely empty on a Friday night!
By comparison, I'm just about to book a villa in France for the middle of August, all mod cons with wifi, air con etc (i.e. comparable standard) and it's still £400 a week cheaper than the price quoted for this place.
Don't get me wrong, you'll have a fab time if you book here and I guess a big family or a group sharing would make it worthwhile. But the increase in price in our view simply isn't justifiable.

Our party of 4 (+ 1 dog) stayed in Seaview Cottage for a long weekend in December.
Our party of 4 (+ 1 dog) stayed in Seaview Cottage for a long weekend in December. The location sold it for me, right across from the beach, who needs tv! My husband & I had the downstairs area and it almost felt like we had our own flat, such a spacious house.
If I was being ‘picky’ I’d suggest putting a larger mirror in the bedroom and perhaps some storage space in the downstairs bathroom (there was nowhere to put toiletries) but that is literally all. It’s a beautiful house in a prime location only a 5 minute walk from Seahouses. I would definitely recommend.

Excellent location as only minutes to the beautiful beach.
Excellent location as only minutes to the beautiful beach.
Wonderful sea view, but note it is not quiet as while we were there was a near constant string of people walking past on there way to and from the beach.
We would probably stay again however the property is slightly let down by the quality of finishing touches in some parts of the house.
For example:
Cheap equipment in the kitchen (pots and pans)
Lots of chipped crockery
Only two of the 8 dining chairs had cushions and those were heavy stained
Only a handful of hangers in the whole house and those that were there looked to be a mish mash of ones left by previous guests
Poor welcome pack of a few tea bags and some individually wrapped biscuits, we have seen much better attempts at other properties.
In summary good house, but needs to do better to be excellent and fully justify the high price tag.

We really enjoyed our holiday.
However -
There is a severe lack of mirrors throughout.
The pans need to be upgraded as they are next to unusable - nearly everything just burnt.
Also a BBQ would be a great addition as would a small drinks fridge downstairs.

Overall a good holiday , accommodation good and obviously been modernised BUT let down by the small basic items.
No oven gloves, need more coat hangers, no hairdryer, household waste calendar a year out of date.
Bottom warming oven filthy . No spare toilet rolls, no soap to get us going , bedside lightbulb gone.
Venetian blinds dirty
Front out side lights need to go off earlier as the light gets through the Venetian blind
Pile of building rubbish in front garden.
Front balcony table has hole burnt right through
Ok this is nit picking but these ruin first impressions .... which is a shame and easy to fix

Seaview House is a stunning property, possibly one of the best we've ever stayed in.
Seaview House is a stunning property, possibly one of the best we've ever stayed in. Exceptionally clean and in an excellent location with views to die for. If I was to be really critical, the only irritating thing was only one door key. The cottage has three bedrooms and that means potentially three couples staying who may wish to go their separate ways during the day. We stayed with our son and his girlfriend and it really was a faff to keep using the key safe each time we went out. Other than that, excellent.

Excellent location and overall a really good property. Marked down due to a few issues - cooker very temperamental - some of the settings on the over didn't work. Also some crockery badly chipped and unable to use (there was still enough for 6 people).
Would benefit from an outside tap to enable you to rinse shoes/feet after being on the beach.
Overall a really good place and would certainly consider booking again.

We would rebook this house in an instant.
We would rebook this house in an instant. We loved our time here. It's actually better than the photos show. Plenty of space, very comfortable and the view is amazing. It takes two minutes to get to the beach and is a short gentle stroll in to Seahouses centre. Very minor points....Having more crockery would mean the dishwasher could be more useful and having mirrors in the upstairs bathroom and the bedrooms would be desirable. If you're holidaying with a toddler I'd advise you to take a safety gate as the living area and kitchen are upstairs. We needed a couple of blocks in order to fit ours as the staircase is wide But, overall.... Absolutely brilliant.

This house was perfect for our family, however, I don't think the pictures on the booking sites do it justice. If I had to criticise anything it would be that there should be mirrors in the bedrooms and upstairs bathroom and maybe more crockery and cutlery to be able to make good use of the dish washer. That said we loved the house and gardens.

Five of us shared this house and found there to be plenty of room for us all to enjoy private space
Five of us shared this house and found there to be plenty of room for us all to enjoy private space when needed . The view was superb, the walk into Seahouses just enough for my 75 year old mother. Local amenities were very good, with a superb Italian restaurant in town and loads of fish and chip opportunities!! Beds were comfortable, showers great, kitchen facilities superb. Parking for two cars was comfortable, but four would fit in a q in the drive. Be sure to take the short walk down to the beach....it is beautiful.
Only one point stopped a full 100% score. The blinds are not good at keeping the light out. You may wake early on sunny mornings...although that may not bother you. :)
