Snaptrip says
Samphire Cottage is consistently praised for its high standards, cosiness, and welcoming atmosphere. Its proximity to local attractions and the inclusion of modern appliances and thoughtful touches, such as a wood burner and a parking permit, contribute to a delightful stay. While most guests had a wonderful time, a few noted minor issues with maintenance and provisions.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage receives high marks for cleanliness, with numerous guests describing it as 'spotless' and 'immaculate'. However, a couple of reviews mentioned dust and cobwebs, slightly affecting the score.
The location is highly praised for being close to the harbour, beach, and town centre, with easy access to local amenities and attractions. Parking is occasionally challenging, but generally not problematic.
Guests find the cottage cosy and comfortable, with special mentions of comfortable beds and a homely feel. The presence of a wood burner adds to the comfort. Some noise from a nearby pub and issues with water pressure were noted.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the kitchen appliances and wood burner. However, some guests suggested improvements in kitchen utensils, and there were comments about the lack of instructions for appliances and handling waste.
Guests appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as the provision of dishwasher tablets, logs for the burner, and a welcome pack. It should be noted that such gifts, while appreciated, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.

Mr Saville
Lovely cottage right in the middle of Seahouses. On street parking may be an issue but we parked outside 90% of the time. Pub across the road but this wasn’t any bother.Cottage is tastefully decorated with a homely feel. Good facilities within. We were a family with a dog and this was a good choice for us and we would stay again.

Mr Mawson
Pros Really spacious & beautifully presented cottage Very clean & tidy & very close to the harbour & town centre Wood burner very useful, despite going in July! Very comfy bed in main bedroom Cons Parking is restricted & is on a first come first served basis. We managed to park our car on arrival, but there seems to be a lot of competition for spaces on this quiet road, with some people finding no spaces when returning from a day out There appeared to be no outside seating area designated to the property as advertised & indeed the outside area was very small & untidy. No basics like hand soap, shower gel, dishcloths were provided, so you need to bring these with you

Mrs Fleming
Lovely well decorated cottage and great that some logs are supplied but there are no instructions re the house so s bins not put out also no instructions on the hob which is difficult to work out if you are not used to convection hobs. The water pressure in the property is incredibly low and just dribbles out
