Quay Cottage is positioned right on the harbour of the traditional fishing port of Seahouses and boasts stunning sea views across to the Farne Islands. The location of this adorable cottage is sublime. A quintessential fisherman’s cottage, the property has been restored to provide homely and tastefully furnished self-catering accommodation whilst offering a unique setting. The accommodation within Quay Cottage is beautifully presented with much thought, care and attention to the finer details. Both double bedrooms and the shower room are on the ground floor with the open plan living space on the first floor to capture the amazing sea views. A balcony leads from the living room to enable guests to inhale the sea air and watch the waves crash against the harbour wall.

There is a wide array of facilities available within Seahouses including tea rooms, restaurants, pubs and shops, all within a gentle stroll from the property. Watch the boats launch to the Farne Islands from the comfort of an armchair – the islands are famous for their nesting seabirds and grey seal colonies. Horse riding is available on the cusp of the village and there’s an impressive golf course on the links close by. The picture postcard village of Bamburgh, protected by its dramatic fortress, is only 2 miles north with its wide expanse of golden, and often empty, sandy beaches and from where the tidal island of Lindisfarne, locally known as Holy Island and the birth place of Christianity, can be viewed.

A further two 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 the home to thousands of sea and land birds, making this location a haven for bird watchers. The market town of Alnwick, with its own castle is a few miles inland and offers many facilities. Alnwick Garden is a popular visitor attraction with its grand cascade waterfall and restaurant within the largest tree house in Europe. Quay Cottage offers an idyllic coastal retreat from which to explore the 20 miles of Heritage coastline designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Beach 100 yards. Shop 150 yards, pub and restaurant 100 yards.
