Seahouses Holiday Cottages on the Northumberland Coast
Looking for a proper coastal escape? Seahouses holiday cottages put you right in the heart of Northumberland's most stunning coastline.
This picturesque fishing village sits between some seriously impressive landmarks. Bamburgh Castle looms three miles south, while Beadnell's horseshoe harbour lies just two miles north.
Gateway to the Farne Islands
Seahouses is famous as the gateway to the Farne Islands. Over 100,000 seabirds call these islands home, including thousands of puffins you can see on boat trips from the harbour.
Grey seal colonies numbering in the thousands haul out on the rocks. Boat trips run daily during season, and honestly, watching a puffin waddle about never gets old.
Accommodation in Seahouses
Cottages in Seahouses range from cosy cottages for two to spacious family homes sleeping eight or more. Traditional fisherman's cottages overlook the working harbour where you'll still see fishing boats coming and going.
Modern coastal cottages offer sea views across to the Farne Islands. Many come with hot tubs if that's your thing, and loads are dog-friendly because this coastline is brilliant for your four-legged mates.
Seahouses cottages by the sea give you proper easy access to sandy beaches. St Aidan's Beach is a short walk from most holiday accommodation, and the Northumberland Coast Path runs right through the village.
What's Nearby
Holy Island sits 15 miles north, accessible at low tide across an ancient causeway. Alnwick Castle and its gardens are 20 minutes inland. The Northumberland Coast Path stretches for miles in both directions, perfect for coastal walking.
Fresh seafood comes straight from the harbour to local restaurants and chippies. There's proper good fish and chips here, none of your frozen nonsense.
Grace Darling Museum tells the story of the local heroine. Dunstanburgh Castle ruins perch dramatically on the clifftop. Lindisfarne Priory and Castle make Holy Island worth the tidal timing.
