Sea View was lovely and is in a perfect location for exploring the Northumberland beaches with our three dogs. There were so many lovely touches in the house from the welcome baskets for both dogs and humans, to the lovely toiletries and the very high end quality fixtures and fittings. The cottage was cosy and had a welcoming feel which was lovely.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage. The beach walks were fantastic, we walked from Beadnell to Craster, from Craster to Alnmouth , Seahouses to Bamburgh and back. The local bus service is good too. Excellent food at The Jolly Fisherman, some places have not yet opened including The Fishing Boat Inn on the walk between Craster and Alnmouth.
