Seahouses offers a wide array of tearooms, restaurants, pubs and shops within walking distance. Boat trips run from the nearby harbour to the Farne Islands, famous for their nesting seabirds and grey seal colonies.
The picture postcard village of Bamburgh, dominated by its majestic castle, is only 2 miles north, where there is a wide expanse of golden, and often empty sandy beaches. The tidal island of Lindisfarne, locally known as Holy Island, can be seen from the beach and is accessible via a causeway twice daily. A further 2 miles up the coastline brings you to Waren Mill, which is steeped in history. Once an important port, its harbour has long since disappeared, silted up beneath the sands of the estuary. Budle Bay is a bird sanctuary and at low tide a vast expanse of mud flats is home to thousands of sea and land birds, making this location a haven for bird watchers. The historic market town of Alnwick, with its own castle, offers many facilities, just a short drive inland. Alnwick Garden is a popular visitor attraction with its grand cascade waterfall and a restaurant within the largest treehouse in Europe! Beach 800 yards. Shop, pub and restaurant 300 yards.

Perfect house for our family get together. Plenty of room to spread out. Well equipped with everything that we needed. Lovely and warm. Two en-suite bathrooms and another separate bathroom with bath and overhead shower, plus downstairs toilet. Peaceful surroundings, easy walk into the centre of Seahouses. Visited Alnwick, market and Barter Books, Holy Island and Howick Gardens. Would definitely stay again. Our favourite part of the world. We all enjoyed our stay totally. Thank you.
