Fat Puffin Reviews

Christine
Our second visit. Really lovely accommodation and very convenient for the town and harbour
Very clean and comfortable but being pensioners the stairs were a bit difficult i like that the stairs had lights which came on when you walked on them ! !!
Stewart
Fat puffin is a quirky wee property but had been renovated to a good standard. It's ideally situated just behind the coop and the Main Street. Ideal for shops and restaurants. Even though it's just off the Main Street it's very quiet. With its dedicated parking spot it's ideal for a couple. Would use again
Christine
Comfortable accommodation Good position for the shops, harbour and ... Comfortable accommodation Good position for the shops, harbour and beach Recommend the cottage for a nice holiday Will be returning
Lovely cottage in a very central location. Very comfortable sofa and the bedroom is downstairs which made it cool on an evening which really helps in hot weather. Lovely attention to detail. Fresh flowers and great little coffee machine, pods provided, my husband loved this. Great decor. We had a very relaxing week.
This was a very comfortable property, the location in the town was perfect for the local shops, bars and restaurants.
Arthur
We very much enjoyed our stay at FAT PUFFIN ,nice and convenient to the town of Seahouses & very warm & comfortable, happy to recommend to any one for a relaxing holiday.
A very comfortable stay in a good location with the essential shops etc only a stones throw away. Ideal for exploring the far north east of our country and all the history of the area. The night storage heaters were a new experience for us but fine when we understood how they worked.
Exceptionally clean, perfect situation for the centre of town but tucked away for privacy. Ideal base for visiting surrounding areas.
Lovey clean accommodation central for all facility's. But quiet as well ..perfect for seeing seahouses and surrounding area .
Christopher
The Fat Puffin is a lovely, cosy and comfortable place to stay, tucked away in a quiet spot, yet minutes away from local amenities. Great communication with Sam the owner throughout and would highly recommend this holiday home.Ideal position for exploring the Northumberland coast.
Stephen
Great property with good amenities, comfortable and clean
Rachel
A lovely little bolt hole in Seahouses. Ideal for 2 people, spotlessly clean and comfortable. Very close to shops, restaurants and pubs. Will hopefully be back in the future.
Pauline
We had a lovely break at fat puffin everything you needed and spotlessly clean. A great location near to ammenities and great walks with the dog.We havent been to Northumberland before now but we will definately return to Fat Puffin again.
Michael
Excellent property well situated in Seahouses. Off street parking. Well maintained, clean and tidy. Owner allowed us to enter from 200pm on the arrival day which was appreciated. Kept in contact with us via email and found any direct feedback helpful. Ideal for a couple. Do not be put off by description of it being the old bakery, it's been converted into four separate facilities with a modern and tidy outlook. Would definitely book again. It helped to make our holiday very enjoyable.
Angela
Lovely little place to stay. Great communication from the owner, was allowed an earlier arrival too which was a welcome bonus. Great location , close to restaurants , shops and the English coastal paths. Would definitely recommend and hope to return when we are next in Northumberland.
