Brand new bespoke gourmet kitchen for 2010

Occupying a prime position in Seahouses’ old quarter, one street away from the renowned ‘Swallow fish’ wet fish shop and three of our other Coastal Retreats – the Fisherman’s Retreat, The Look Out and The Plaice, this recently built 2 storey double fronted stone cottage sleeps 7 in 3 spacious bedrooms. A minute’s walk from the sea next to a small privately owned caravan park and just as close to the restaurants and shops of this buzzing fishing village, this cottage offers something for everyone. It is close to the golf course and within a couple of minutes walk of the harbour and the boats sailing to the Farne Islands.

Seafarer's is a lovely base for a holiday with a slightly more traditional feel to its interior than some of our other cottages in the collection.  Its owners, who work in the Arts, have selected some of their favourite artworks for the walls, and a guitar and accordian are there for those of a musical bent. The hallmark Coastal Retreats attention to detail and styling is apparent in the light open-plan ground floor living accommodation with wood-burning stove and upstairs the bedrooms benefit from a family bathroom and en-suite bath room with shower over the bath, off the master bedroom. There is also a space for storing bikes and boogie boards. Bedrooms have views over the rooftops and caravans towards the sea, rocks and harbour of Seahouses which are a 2 minute walk away- all in all an excellent family holiday location and a great place to return to after a day on the beach!

Externally there is parking for one car in the small courtyard to the rear of the property and a very small area with garden seat for enjoying the morning sun and for watching a bit of quiet village life, to the front of the house, with a few passers by.

The Seafarer's has been awarded a 5 star grade by VisitBritain/English Tourism Council for 2010

Children at Seafarer's

With no private outdoor space, Seafarer's is less suitable for toddlers but older children will love being so close to the beach and all that Seahouses has to offer. Travel cot and high chair available on request.

Location and Locality

In the old quarter, a central location of Seahouses and within easy access of harbour, beach, rocks, shops, boats, pubs and Ocean Leisure Club. In a street location next to Swallow Fish and the small caravan park

Recommendations 

Families with older children and teenage children. Small groups. Sleeping 7, the Seafarer's is also ideal for two familes sharing together. Ideal for children who want to be able to explore beach, harbour, shops, crazy golf on their own. The Seafarer's has also had its fair share of girls groups who enjoy being able to walk to the Ocean Club for pamper days and walk to the Olde Ship Hotel for homemade bar meals and a decent glass of wine

Guest Comments 

'This is our third holiday here for our family of three generations. It suits all of us'

'Being next to Swallow Fish has meant we have eaten beautiful fresh fish all week long'

'This has been a really lovely holiday, depsite the weather. It was so nice coming off the boat and walking two minutes up the hill to a warm and cosy cottage. We lit the log burner every night and sat round the table drinking wine and playing scrabble...marvellous, thank you'

' Fabulous new kitchen -looks like something out of an interior design magazine'

'This is a perfect cottage for us. We love being so close to everything and really enjoyed having our friends staying round the corner at the Fisherman's Retreat. It's been a super way to celebrate my 40th birthday, thanks to Coastal Retreats for suggesting this to us'
