(Giving you the only down sides we can think of about a property before you book!)
Note that the second bedroom has only a double bed and cannot be split into 2 singles
Mobile reception almost impossible in Seahouses. The T mobile network works best

'Great holiday, great location'
'Our third holiday with Coastal Retreats and just as impressed and bowled over with the accommodation and the coastline as the first time we stayed at Nook End all those years ago. Might try one of the Country Retreats next time - we like the look of the Grain Store but then again, we might just come back to Bluegrass'
'This is one of the most relaxing holdiays I have ever had!! Sunshine, sea views, gorgeous immaculate apartment, huge fluffy towels and big dressing gowns plus my favourite Thalgo toiletries. I need to have a weekend like this every now and then just to recharge my batteries. Enjoyed breakfast in the morning sun every day on the balcony before a morning run on the beach and then coming back for coffee in the little garden overlooking the harbour. We really loved this place. Thanks so much'
'We would have to say...AWESOME..SPECTACULAR...PLATINUM..about our stay at The Viking-Bluegrass. What's more, our friends were astonished at the beauty of Northumbrian coastline. They are talking about coming back next year and bringing their other friends along! Thanks for being such a brilliant jewel among the rugged rocks of the Northeast coast..
Your most happy customers'
'Convenient location meant we hardly used our car which was safely tucked up in the garage below. We walked, ran, cycled or sailed every day. Seahouses is a great place to make a base and Bluegrass was certainly a really comfortable and stylish place to return to at the end of the day'
'We would recommend to anyone. We felt as though we had recieved good value for money and an excellent service from Coastal Retreats and really appreciated the way they advised us and directed us to the best property for us. We will be certainly using Coastal Retreats again in the future. The professionalism of your company is amazing and yuor customer care is second to none'
Just want to say that we had a fabulous time at Bluegrass. Can't thank you enough for all your help and effort. You even managed to lay on the weather. Only one wet spell on Tuesday morning so we enjoyed the pool. That was a big hit too. Lewis (aged 4) was thrilled with "the codes" to get in or out. He can still remember them and we have imaginary barriers at home. The apartment was a dream and I adored looking out to sea and watching the busy harbour.
Many thanks and hope to return again soon!
