About Seahouses

Seahouses, known to many as the 'Village by the Sea' provides the ideal location for a holiday or short break in Northumberland.  This picturesque coastal village is an excellent base from which to explore the Northumberland coast and countryside. 

Our cottage in Seahouses IS conveniently located within a short walk (up to 4 minutes) of the harbour and Main Street.  Here you will find a number of cafes, restaurants, good pubs, a small supermarket, excellent bakery, butchers, chemist, post office and a range of interesting craft shops.  A visit to Seahouses would not be complete without a visit to one of the famous fish and chip shops located on the Main Street - the fish is absolutely delicious!

At Seahouses you are surrounded by stunning scenery and spoilt for choice for things to do and places to visit.

The Farne Islands can be reached by regular boat trips from Seahouses harbour. This National Trust property is great for bird lovers and geologists. 

The historic town of Alnwick is only 10 miles away where you will find a thriving market town with something a bit special! Even if you are not green fingered, a visit to Alnwick Gardens is a must.  Here you can stroll around the stunning gardens and waterfalls and walk along the rope bridge to The Treehouse which is a wonderful place for families to eat together, offering great menu choices for children.  Harry Potter fans of all ages should visit Alnwick Castle (or Hogwart's School) and re-live some of your favourite scenes from the popular films.

Seahouses is located on the Heritage coastline which is dotted with castles, villages and stunning beaches - ideal for walking all year round. The Cheviot Hills are only a short drive away offering superb views across to Holy Island and Linisfarne.

Alternatively, a stroll along the beach to Bamburgh Castle or a visit to Holy Island are both ideal for a family day out.

Golfers wont be disappointed either.  There are numerous golf courses within easy reach of our cottages, includng the the links course in Seahouses itself.  If you are a big party or society, please contact us directly and we can organise to accommodate you across a number of cottages located together.

"CONTEMPORARY COOL

When designers Fiona McKeith and Roger Copestake had children, they embarked on a mission: to prove that family holiday homes could look just as stylish as their favourite boutique hotels. The Look Out is proof of the pudding, a startling penthouse-style pad on four storeys, decked in nautical chic and with a gull’s-eye view of Seahouses harbour. Altogether the couple have overhauled 25 fishermen’s roosts along the Northumberland coast, adding funky, family-friendly interiors to every one of them
