This 2-bedroom apartment is a stylish ground-floor retreat on the outskirts of Seahouses in Northumberland. Dual-aspect lounge windows deliver genuine sea views and binoculars are provided so you can spot puffins and grey seals without leaving the sofa. This is a well-presented two-bedroom apartment sleeping four people comfortably.

Seahouses harbour is a short walk away where daily boat trips head out to the Farne Islands. A sandy beach is within half a mile. The coastal path north reaches Bamburgh Castle in 3 miles and heads south to Beadnell village in 2 miles. Alnwick Castle and Dog-Friendly 2-Bedroom Cottage with Parking in Seahouses are both within 20 miles.

The apartment has two king-size bedrooms. Bedroom one faces the sea with an elegantly tiled en-suite bathroom. Bedroom two overlooks the enclosed patio and has a zip-and-link bed convertible to twins on request with its own en-suite shower room. The kitchen has an induction hob and Tassimo coffee machine.

Bamburgh Castle (3 miles) and the Farne Islands boat trips from Seahouses harbour are the standout local attractions. Alnwick Garden and Alnwick Castle are within 20 miles.

This stay suits couples and small families wanting a coastal Northumberland base with sea views, allocated parking and easy beach access. One dog is welcome too.
