Self-Catering Cottage Holidays in Seahouses
Looking for a coastal escape on the Northumberland coast? Our handpicked Seahouses cottages offer stunning breaks in one of England's most spectacular coastal villages.
Base yourself in Seahouses and you're perfectly positioned to explore the dramatic Northumberland coastline. Just three miles south sits Bamburgh Castle—one of Britain's largest coastal fortresses rising above golden sands. Two miles north you'll find Beadnell Bay with its horseshoe harbour and sandy beach. The Farne Islands sit just offshore, home to over 100,000 seabirds including puffins and grey seal colonies numbering in the thousands. Boat trips depart daily from Seahouses harbour during the season.
Choose from traditional fisherman's cottages overlooking the working harbour, spacious family homes near St Aidan's Beach, or modern properties with sea views across to the Farnes. Holy Island lies 15 miles north—accessible at low tide across an ancient causeway. Alnwick Castle and its famous gardens are 20 minutes inland. The Northumberland Coast Path passes right through Seahouses, offering miles of coastal walking in both directions.
Your Seahouses cottage puts you in the heart of the action. Fresh seafood comes straight from the harbour. The village has shops, restaurants and traditional fish and chip shops. Lindisfarne Castle, Grace Darling Museum and Dunstanburgh Castle are all within easy reach for your Northumberland adventure.
Seahouses is the gateway to Northumberland's finest coastal attractions.
Walk the vast beaches stretching towards Bamburgh, watch diving gannets from the harbour wall, or kayak along the coast. A self-catering cottage gives you the freedom to explore at your own pace—come back after a day of sea air and make yourself at home in this special corner of North East England.
