The Bolthole (Seahouses) Reviews

We had a wonderful week at the Bolthole. It is a beautiful well furnished bungalow and there is everything you could need. It was a little difficult for us to use the shower but that's our decision to come to the bolthole knowing this.. The back garden is a little disappointing with the outlook but it didn't spoil our holiday. We would definitely return. We met Nicola's son at the craster arms. What a nice chap. The heating is very efficient. Overall 10 out of 10. Thank you Nicola.

Perfect! Clean, comfortable and well equipped. Everything you could need from a holiday cottage, and only a 10 minute stroll into Seahouses Thoroughly recommend
Beautiful property, welcome pack a lovely touch, great communication from Nicola, would highly recommend The Bolthole ! ! Would 100 return
A beautiful cottage with everything you need for a holiday. Its location was superb, only a 10 minute walk into Seahouses and a 10 minute drive into Bamburgh or Beadnell. I will 100 return to The Bolthole when I visit Northumberland again!
Krista
The Bolthole is in a perfect location on a quiet street just 5 minutes from the village centre. The house had everything we needed and was nice and clean on arrival, with a lovely welcome pack waiting for us.
Beautiful property in a lovely friendly area. This was our second visit and chose The Bolt Hole again because it has parking, spacious, enclosed garden for our little dog. A lovely welcome pack of wine, delicious cake, chocolate, crisps, bread & milk was much appreciated. Would definitely stay here next time we visit Seahouses.
Rosslyn
We have had a great week at The Bolthole. The bungalow is very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The rear garden area was indeed a sun trap and we were able to sit outside every afternoon sheltered from the strong north and east winds. The conservatory was also a lovely place to sit, excellent for the evening sundowner! The beds were very comfortable too. A great place to stay and we hope to return soon.
Kenneth
The Bolthole is ideal for anyone seeking a very peaceful and very comfortable base for a holiday in the beautiful county of Northumberland, based as it is just a short distance from Seahouses High Street but with very easy access to all the facilities that Seahouses offers and well away from the busyness that lots of tourists coming for boat trips creates. After days out visiting all the lovely sights and beaches, it was always a pleasure to come back to The Bolthole.
Carole
Great quiet location. Accessible and well equipped. Dog friendly with enclosed small garden.
Really nice cottage, I initially thought it might be a bit far from the town centre but the location was excellent and was actually great to be a little away from the bustle of town and the narrow streets, ease of parking a bonus. Around a 10min walk to the harbour, would recommend the butchers along the road. Being pet friendly allowed us to bring our dog and tour seahouses which is fab. Loved the conservatory and it was great to have a welcome pack on arrival. The cottage is well equipped and has nice rooms. Only suggestions would be some more games and possibly a Bluetooth speaker or radio but overall loved our stay at 'the bolthole'.
Maxine
Property is exactly as listed. Spotlessly clean and everything you need for a great stay. Situated close to shops and restaurants but nicely tucked away. The welcome goodies were much appreciated and the cake went down a treat. Would definitely recommend The Bolthole.

Beautiful property. Exceptionally clean. Good location for restaurants, pubs, shops. Garden was great and a little suntrap. Safe for our dog. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks for the lovely cake and wine.

As a Family we loved this Cottage. So clean well stocked with all we needed for our week's stay. Loved the location and the fact our dog Leo had a safe back yard was so much appreciated. Lots of walks and the beach was fantastic at Bamburgh. A bit pricey to eat out but was worth every penny. Would recommend this Property to anyone. Thanks again, Kathleen.

It was a pleasure to return to The BoltHole and Seahouses again. Weve stayed here a few times and the owners make sure the property is very clean, well kept , equipped comfortable and welcoming. The welcome pack this time was very appropriate for St Patricks Day thank you. Ideal position for the beaches in the area and the eateries and quirky shops of Seahouses. We hope to visit again sometime
Trevor
Lovely clean well equipped property in ideal quiet location we really enjoyed our week
Michael
The Bothole was extremely well presented, furnished and equipped. It was very comfortable, and ideal for our party of six from five to seventy five. The welcome pack was generous and the owner immensely helpful when we were in touch with her. Parking was easy too. Of the six or so holiday lets we have had in Seahouses, this was rivalled by one other only whose sole advantage was its being closer to the sea! We would happily return.
Maureen

The Bolthole was a lovely place to stay and we will be recommending it. It was very clean and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The Welcome Pack was a lovely touch thank you.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Bolthole which had everything we needed for a weeks stay and not too far out of seahouses centre. A lovely welcome pack was left for us including wine and a fantastic home baked cake. The owner texted us to make sure all was okay and responded quickly to any questions. We will look forward to stay here again if in the area. Highly recommended
What an absolute gem with a little sun trap of a garden. Impressive is an understatement as this cottage is of an exceptional high standard, well decorated, maintained and clean. It was indeed a home from home and we were made to feel valued guests immediately on arrival. A nice friendly note from the owners welcoming us and an outstanding welcome pack accompanied by a bottle of wine. Perfect and we definitely plan to return in the future. Excellent
This was our 4th visit to The Bolthole and everything was perfect as always it is so clean and comfortable the owners have thought of everything to make sure your holiday is fabulous especially during these awful times we are going through !

We have stayed in many cottages in Seahouses over the years but this one is far the best that&39s why we keep returning its our home from home also the owners are a fabulous couple that we were lucky to meet in person
Second visit to The Bolthole. Lovely modern interior with everything you could need, quality furnishings, towels and kitchen items, lovely clean property with everything you need to keep it clean during your stay. Very quiet culdesac but walking distance to town and the beach.
The Bolthole was an excellent property well thought out to great standard. Welcome pack was great, lots of home comforts and the owner left lots of helpful information.
The Bolthole was beautifully presented very clean and fitted out to a very high standard everything you need is there. Its location is in a lovely quiet place but still within walking distance into Seahouses. The owners are very helpful if you need to get in touch they also left a lovely welcome pack which was a very nice touch that you don&39t always get. We have been going to Northumberland for many years and stayed in lots of different types of accommodation and this one is definitely in my top three !
