About this property

Seahouses 3.7 miles. Positioned in a prestigious area, within the picture-postcard village of Bamburgh in Northumberland, is this charming, mid-terrace, Glenander. Set over three floors and resting a stone's throw away from the east coast, Glenander is the perfect setting for a family of 10's getaway to this wonderful part of the region. Just moments away from a variety of shops, restaurants and pubs, this pet-friendly dwelling is ideal for a self-catered stay in Bamburgh. After parking on the roadside, make your way inside to be welcomed by a charming sitting room, where plenty of seating allows you to unwind in front of the TV; why not pop on a family-favourite DVD to enjoy, too? When you're feeling peckish, continue to the impressive kitchen, where a range of brilliant appliances can be found, including a range cooker with double ovens, as well as ample food preparation space; a budding chef's dream! Once a delectable dinner has been fixed up, take it through to the dining room and tuck into it whilst you discuss the day's adventures. As the day winds to a close, throw any old clothes into the utility's washing machine, freshen up in the neighbouring cloakroom, and head upstairs to discover three of the five fabulous bedrooms. The first of these bedrooms consist of a zip/link super-king-size, which enjoys Jack-and-Jill access to a superb bathroom, shared by the lovely twin room; completing this floor is a fabulous king-size that benefits from its own en-suite shower room. Ascend the stairs to find two more fantastic bedrooms, another super-king-size - also zip/linked for flexibility - which enjoys an en-suite shower room, and a double boasting an en-suite bathroom; both rooms enjoy amazing views, from the rooftops of Bamburgh to the countryside and distant sea! Venture outside to explore your picturesque setting, where a short stroll will lead you to the high street, where you will find an array of fantastic eateries, including The Castle Inn and The Lobster Pot, as well as a deli and butchers shop for grabbing fresh produce. This beautiful village is home to the renowned Bamburgh Castle and you can tour the intriguing RNLI Grace Darling Museum; alternatively, venture down to Bamburgh's wonderful award winning beach, which is just half a mile away and offers excellent surfing conditions and a long stretch of sand. Spend some time in Seahouses, a quaint village boasting a charming harbour with opportunities to embark on boat tours of the Farne Islands, as well as access to a marvellous golf club! Explore more of the Northumberland Coast AONB by travelling to Dunstan Seeds, where the ruins of the once-glorious Dunstanburgh Castle, the delightful Embleton Bay and the nearby Howick Hall Gardens & Arboretum can be found. You can spend more time touring the AONB's beaches, visit Holy Island, or venture to the delightful towns of Alnmouth and Amble; there's so much to see here! A coastal getaway to remember awaits at Glenander.

A lively, charming fishing community with a picturesque port on the stunning Northumbrian coast, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Seahouses has a wide range of stores as well as an excellent selection of inns, taverns, and restaurants. There are miles and miles of beautiful sandy beaches nearby, and the chance to visit a bird refuge or seal colony on the famed Farne Islands, with boat cruises departing from Seahouses every day, is not to be missed.

    No garden space should be mentioned.Vacuum cleaner very awkward to use.Some lack of maintenance eg light bulbs needing replaced,toilet seat dangerously loose.Orherwise a lovely holiday house We would return in a flash

  • Merrilyn

    Some maintenance issues, light bulbs needing replaced and toilet seats needing repaired. We had a 4 hour power cut on the Sunday during our stay, emergency lighting came on briefly. There were no candles and only one torch, we had a 5 year old and a 1 year old with us. Additional emergency lighting is definitely required in the future.

  • Amanda

    Very well appointed with everything required for a great family holiday. Great service as when we arrived the main door was very difficult to open and close but when we reported this a maintenance man came to fix it within the hour, fantastic service, thank you. Will definitely book again next year. So comfortable.
