Seahouses is a great location and very handy to have an allocated parking space below the flat. Seahouses is a great base to explore Northumberland from and is a lovely village to stay in. The ‘Seafarers’ flat had the basics and was tidy. The property guidebook was useful.<br/><br/>Very uncomfortable bed - at first I thought it was just a firm mattress (and that’s a matter of preference) but when it came time to go to bed, I could not only feel but also hear every spring in the mattress. The popping and tinging of the springs woke me up every night and it was just lumpy, tough and uncomfortable. I would recommend that the mattress and pillows are replaced soon. I didn’t sleep well once during my stay. <br/> <br/>The ‘Seafarers’ property info on Host and Stay website is not current and doesn’t all apply to this flat. The photos are also different as it has clearly been redecorated since they were taken. It is mostly the same, however, the photos and list of amenities both feature a bathtub and now there is just a walk-in shower, which was disappointing. <br/> <br/>I was not impressed that shortly before my stay I was informed that I needed to pay an additional damage waiver/insurance before I arrived. This meant that I paid more than quoted on the property listing, despite having already booked and paid. It was not made clear a time of booking. <br/> <br/>Views only of car parks from front and rear of property but on a clear day you could see the distant outline of Bamburgh Castle, though the window was very dirty to look through.

The apartment is clean, well-furnished and very central, we were lucky to get parking in the back courtyard. The bakery below the apartment did get late deliveries. I knew this in advance from other reviews and took earplugs. The bedrooms were large though could do with a small set of drawers for clothes, there was plenty of room. Kitchen/Diner was well stocked but Seahouses has plenty of places to eat out, we only had breakfast and snacks there.<br/><br/>I didn't like the fact we had to pay an extra damage insurance amount on top of the rental amount quoted by Booking.com This is not made clear when you viewed and subsequently booked the property. I feel this is sneaky and should be made clear at the time of viewing/booking. Some of the reviews we read about Ironside did not apply to the property we rented. This was very confusing.

We’ll equipped kitchen. Comfortable lounge area. Large bathroom, walk-in shower.<br/><br/>Overlooking 2 car parks. Shower hose very dirty.

the place was good as a base to explore the area. I was upset by the additionalbfees imposed by Stay and will avoid properties managed by them and advise all I talk to to do the same.
17/09/2024
Very clean, modern apartment. Good location. Well equipped kitchen area.<br/><br/>Bed not too comfortable. Only one small sofa, wasn't very comfy for two people. Ironing board was broken, this was reported immediately but wasn't resolved.
16/09/2024
Clean and simple<br/><br/>The location left a lot to be desired, a car park on one side and the backs of shops and restaurants. Only one hand towel in the apartment.<br/>I didn't like the fact that before I was given the key code to enter the apartment I had to pay £20 'insurance fee'.
11/09/2024
Lovely apartment, with everything you needed supplied for your stay.<br/>Very spacious and clean, loved the size of the bathroom! (they're normally quite tight for space!) Plenty of storage and a good size hanging rail for clothes! <br/>Very comfortable overall. (apart from the bed!)<br/><br/>(a) The steps to get into the apartment are like fire escape ones. I always was a bit wary of going up and down them, especially if it was a bit damp.<br/>(b) The bed! The mattress was so springy!! You only had to touch it and you could feel the springs. Once in it, it squeaked with every move and when one person moved the other got bounced about!<br/>Didn't have a good night's sleep all week. (we actually came home a day early to our own bed!!)
10/09/2024
It was a nice little apartment with parking off road next to plenty of stores and restaurants to enjoy<br/><br/>It was quite awkward to get to once in the village as it is down a back alley
01/09/2024
Nice apartment but could be difficult to drive on to the main Street especially if a car was parked near the entrance.<br/><br/>The back yard was dirty and untidy. A spare toilet roll would have been handy!
01/09/2024
the property was very clean and tidy, everything you needed was there<br/><br/>the place was good nothing bad to say
30/08/2024
Great location - good to have a parking space too. Very clean (just a bit of dust on the floor - unavoidable so take slippers). Just like the photos - quite minimal which we like for a holiday. Comfy bed and lots of storage space. Would recommend.
27/08/2024
The main difficulty was the unclear address given so we spent some time trying to get into the wrong property. <br/>The accommodation itself was excellent and gave us a lovely short break exploring the Northumberland coast.. only one dishwasher tablet provided which is inadequate for 3 night stay
26/08/2024
Great location, spacious apartment with everything you need. Very clean.<br/><br/>The property is advertised as having a private car parking space - however this isn’t the case, we had to pay £30 in a carpark instead.<br/>WiFi could be improved - we were unable to connect phones to the WiFi. <br/>Very close to main road - which meant it was quite noisy throughout the night.
25/08/2024
Bathroom and Kitchen were good although the kitchen needed more utensils.<br/><br/>Bed and pillows were very uncomfortable as was the settee. No opening window in the lounge area for ventilation.
16/08/2024
Property was clean. Milk in fridge.<br/><br/>Being forced to pay extra hidden charges for insurance Left me feeling cheated. Should have been included in price. It was like a ryanair add on. Property extremely noisy at night with deliveries for bakery below curtains completely Inadequate not lined So was too light in the mornings No hairdryer. Dishwasher would be more useful than a washing machine for a holiday break. No visitor book for recommendations. No helpful leaflets for local businesses - I felt the information guide a little lazy not everybody wants to use the phone all the time. What if? if you don’t have an iPhone. Need Window pole to shut windows As they are are so high. Felt foolish for only reading reviews after I had arrived. I see that most of the issues I am informing you are have already been raised. Didnt like being emailed on holiday, eeminding me to leave.

07/08/2024
Apartment was superb. Clean, bright, spacious and well equipped. Plenty of tea, coffee, milk available and also some lovely toiletries. Exceptionally comfortable bed. Well placed in centre of Seahouses and near to beach. All amenities minutes away. Quiet despite being on main street. Parking very close by and well priced for length of stay.<br/><br/>Not much to say. The only thing I would have liked that wasn't available was a hairdryer.

Like Seahouses so went for three days.<br/><br/>This property insisted on cover me insurance despite other cleaning and hosting costs . Host & Stay insisted we take this out prior to giving us the key safe code. The system was down and I had to call them repeatedly before I was helped wasting my time and causing me anxiety on holiday. We were given the choice of paying a non refundable £25 or paying £250 with £240 being returned to us two weeks later . Unexpected costs for a short break which were excessive. <br/>The apartment was a bit spartan and located in a car park at the rear of a curry house. <br/>Will stay in a hotel next time.
02/08/2024
The location it was very modern with all the amenities and it was clean and well maintained and the correspondence and information I would definitely go back<br/><br/>Can’t fault it really
31/07/2024
Property was very comfortable, well equipped and the location was great. AC would have been handy during our visit.<br/><br/>The management company. Lied about the mandatory deposit, and only sent me that information teh day that my free cncallation had expired. I was backed into a corner to pay either a bond or make a deposit payment by card which is not fully refundable - even though the listing says it is. This is sharp practice - even the worst budget airline tell you they are going to shaft you in advance, not wait unti you can't do anything about it. If these are unavoidable costs, incude them in the headline pricing. Booking.com should take them to taks over this.
29/07/2024
Great location. Had a lovely stay
23/07/2024
I want to discuss the complaints I made further<br/><br/>A lot of dead flies on window ledge on arrival <br/>Advert promised allocated parking space included,this was untrue<br/>Bed so soft and bouncy it was awful<br/>Very noisy...proximity to shop underneath not highlighted
14/07/2024
Nice flat in ideal location to access Seahouses. Situated just behind main high street. Selection of restaurants and pubs on the High street. Good location to visit Northumbria.
14/07/2024
Great place ina great area. Perfect for the Northumberland coastline
11/07/2024
.<br/><br/>Please be aware that you have to pay an extra £25 <br/>to. " protect you in case you cause damage" <br/><br/>This requirement is not shown when you get the payment page on booking com.<br/><br/> First we heard about it was after we had paid <br/><br/>The info is shown, but you have to search for it
09/07/2024
great location. Lovely, clean flat.
06/07/2024
Really comfortable and in a central but quiet location.<br/>Spotlessly clean and well equipped .<br/><br/>Nothing it was perfect
06/07/2024
Lovely bright apartment, good size rooms with high ceilings. We had everything we needed. Located on the High Street, a short walk to the harbour. Lots of restaurants and tourist shops near by and a Coop for grocery shopping directly across the road.<br/><br/>Parking is in the courtyard behind the building and initialy there was a problem, as the space behind the flat has a 'no parking' notice on the wall. We still parked there as that is what our instructions said, but then someone started putting notes of 'no parking' on our windscreen. With help from the company and the bakery underneath the flat we were given a different place to park the next day. <br/>The curtains in the bedroom are very thin, so if you are a light sleeper and wake up when the room gets light (4.30AM) take an eye mask.
03/07/2024
Modern spacious<br/><br/>Nothing
28/06/2024
The location was good as it was right in the heart of the town. The downside is the front of the property looks out over the rear entrance to an Indian restaurant and all the bins. The rear door into the restaurant kitchen was open all the time. It was noisy and delivery drivers were coming and going all evening. The rear window looks out over a car park. The accommodation has all the facilities as described. The place is fairly clean but lacks attention to detail. Dust and fluff along skirting boards and edges of the floor. If you’re looking for quiet or romantic to relax in then this probably isn’t the place.
24/06/2024
Great location! Easy to walk to everything in town and close to the bus stop for transportation.
23/06/2024
Good size, well equiped, comfortable flat. Parking by flat. Very convenient for local shops, pubs and restaurants. Walking distance to harbour for boat trips to the Farnes.<br/><br/>Flat is behind main street shops through a narrow car drive. Difficult to spot the entrance on first arrival.
18/06/2024
Lovely flat, great location<br/><br/>Not happy with the access to the apartment. It states there is stairs but doesn't tell you they are external metal fire escape type staircase., that gets slippy when wet. Miss advertising. I am a 76 year old lady who has difficulty walking but can manage internal staircases but really struggled with theses steps. Wouldn't have gone to the property if I'd known about the access situation . I feel that in future it should clearly state on the accommodation that tge steps are external and not suitable for everyone.
12/06/2024
Very clean room and good situation for our needs<br/><br/>The absence of a manual to explain how the washing machine worked. The QR information is not available on our type of mobile phone. We did not like sitting on stools to eat at the counter. We would rather have a table and chairs. The views were carpark front and back but it was not noisy except for a loud crow !
08/06/2024
The location was perfect for walking out the door to pick up freshly baked bread, go to the restaurants and walk down to the harbour. There was so much to see within a half hour drive. We would definitely stay again.<br/><br/>Nothing.
25/05/2024
Clean, fully equipped apartment which catered for our needs
23/05/2024
21/05/2024
Location very convenient and central. <br/>Living area and main bedroom were spacious, clean, bright and airy. <br/>The bathroom was clean and large. Good shower. <br/>The bed was very comfy.<br/><br/>We were very surprised to be asked to pay an additional (non refundable) fee of either £10 or £25, prior to travel, for damage waiver. This should be clearly advertised, or included in the original cost of the booking. <br/>The information for both parking and rubbish disposal were very unclear and unhelpful. We messaged for clarification re parking on arrival. Our second text message was ignored. We were advised to park in the designated parking area. There wasn't one. <br/>The kitchen area was tiny, with no usable work surface. Many plates, dishes etc were still in original shop packaging, the mugs still had Ikea stickers attatched. Plates and glasses were stored in a pantry type cupboard along, with the mop and vacuum! <br/>There was no dishwasher, one was advertised. <br/>Both bedrooms really need a minimum of an additional chest of drawers and / or dressing table. The only storage for clothes was a clothes rail. We lived out of our bags for a week. There was no hairdryer. <br/>The appartment appeared to have been very recently decorated, and stocked / furnished. (It smelt of paint initially). <br/>I really hope these issues are just teething problems, but this apartment really didn't feel anything like fully prepared for guests, or particularly welcoming.
19/05/2024
I honestly could not fault anything with the property, great central location and Seahouses is very close to many different places. The apartment was in perfect condition and decorated brilliantly, it made us feel very at home and comfortable here. The hosts provided many additional facilities that we did not expect, and communication was great leading up to our stay. Very spacious shower, water pressure wasn't the best but this was not an issue at all for us. If you have mobility issues the upstairs apartment would not be suitable due to the fire escape entry, but this was no issue for us and was stated in the booking. We didn't want to leave and would absolutely be back again to stay! ! Couldn't recommend enough :)
15/05/2024
15/05/2024
All good, see above<br/><br/>Communication, particularly regarding the requirement for a damage deposit which was not made clear on the initial booking. <br/>We caused no damage and look forward to receipt of the deposit
10/05/2024
Everything was fabulous and had all items like iton, hairdrier and tea n coffee etc<br/><br/>The stairs leading to the apartment weren’t very good, open metal not for the feint hearted
09/05/2024
Modern apartment close to amenities<br/><br/>Kitchen equipment not clean, uncomfortable bed and very low water pressure in whole apartment especially shower
09/05/2024
First the pros: The location was great. In the evening, the neighbourhood was surprisingly quiet. The flat had just about everything I needed (could do with an oven mitt and spatula). And there is a dedicated parking space for one vehicle.<br/>Now the cons: For the price, I would expect a more comfortable bed. I don’t struggle with back issues, but this one left mine aching. The flat wasn’t as clean as I would have liked. Some of the bowls had food stuck to them, and the shower hose is covered in black gunk that falls off when it’s being used (something regular cleaning would solve). The person living upstairs can be heard walking around their flat day and night. The front and the back of the flat overlook car parks, so there isn’t much privacy. And (for me, personally) I was contacted too often before, during and after my stay.
05/05/2024
Exactly what we expected from pictures and communication with the hosts. Would stay again!
26/04/2024
Provision of shaver socket and USB charge point
21/04/2024
We could not fault the actual apartment. <br/>Pros: It was spotlessly clean. The sofa was comfortable. The bed was comfortable. Shower had great pressure and hot water. The kitchen was well-equipped. Easy walk to the Harbour to take a ferry to Farne Islands. We walked along the gorgeous coastline from Seahouses to Bamburgh Castle and back which is roughly 3 miles each way. We ate at The Black Swan in Seahouses and the food was delicious. To be fair the it is a convenient location. <br/>The only drawback to this property is that it sits in between the back of a restaurant and a carpark. That being said, we were out most of the time and on a night time, once we got in, there was no noise and cosy and warm.
01/04/2024
Apartment was great, surrounding area amazing, kept busy for whole time
27/03/2024
We had a lovely stay in Seahouses, it’s a lovely place to be by the sea and there’s lots of pubs and lovely walks to go on. We also ventured out to Bamburgh and Holy Island, which was made possible by having the car and a dedicated parking space.<br/>The property itself is hidden behind the Main Street which was a little bit difficult to work out. As previous reviews have said, it is between a bakers/Indian restaurant and a car park. I was a bit worried about this at first, but it turned out not to be a problem at all! We couldn’t really hear anything from outside once in the property.<br/>The property was clean and tidy on arrival and was the perfect size for a little getaway for 2! It was so much nicer coming back to our own space rather than a hotel room.<br/>We would definitely come back again!
26/03/2024
26/03/2024
Very clean, excellent position, good parking, warm in winter.<br/><br/>The brand new hob looked good but was not good to cook on. We hardly used it as we ate out mostly. Took a long time for the on demand hot water to come through shower. The fire escape type access was a little offputting. Perhaps a warning on the description.
23/03/2024
Great base and superb location.<br/>Communication with the team at Host & Stay was prompt, informative & helpful throughout our stay, we had a slight issue regarding the cooking hob on our arrival, we raised this with the team and it was dealt with very promptly and with zero impact on our stay, spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable. Safe parking by front door ( easy for unloading etc), decent food outlets and supermarket all within under a 10 min walk. Our first trip/stay to the area and I really can't say enough about the place ??????????
12/03/2024
Location. The apartment which was very well appointed. Immaculately clean and modern.<br/><br/>Nothing everything was perfect.
03/03/2024
We actually stayed in the wrong flat, apologies Nathan. Beautiful apartment though, highly recommended.
19/02/2024
We had a lovely couple of days. The apartment was centrally located. <br/>My only complaint was we had to pay a £250 deposit in case of damages to property. When we left we were advised this would<br/>Not be refunded for 7 days. There was also a non refundable £10 admin fee charged to us, this was to cover the payment of the £250 deposit. Very unsatisfactory policy.
26/12/2023
Perfect location for all shops etc.
23/11/2023
Small, comfortable facility that provided us with what we required... a place to relax and a base foe exploring the area.<br/><br/>Finding the place was difficult as it was dark when we arrived. <br/>Small issue but no dishwasher tablets so couldn't use it.<br/>Lots of email reminders stressing the importance of leaving by 1000 on day of departure.
04/11/2023
We stayed for 2 nights - 2 adults and 1 baby<br/>Pros:<br/>- close to lots of amenities in Seahouses - very handy<br/>- modern, warm apartment - electric radiators are very toasty <br/>- mostly spotlessly clean <br/>Cons:<br/>- not a fan of having £10 of my security deposit deducted as an ‘admin fee’. Fair enough if a guest has actually caused some damage that you’d then add an admin charge, but to have this when returning the deposit in full is unusual and not something I’ve ever come across before. Just increase your price per stay instead<br/>- apartment is located behind a busy Indian restaurant and the bedroom window backs onto the service yard/their rear entrance. You get the expected noise around 11ish when staff are clearing up and leaving etc. One night they also started a fire (?!) in an oil drum - the smell came into our apartment at 11.30 and we woke in a panic thinking the apartment itself was on fire. Clear this isn’t the fault of the hosts, but it’s important people are aware of its location
30/10/2023
Apartment was in a good location. Clean and tidy yet a bit dated!<br/><br/>The apartment access was an outside metal staircase, with a dangerous top step with no lights. So I had to use a torch! The walkway that leads to the apartment had restricted access due to a seat partially blocking path approximately 12 inches to squeeze past ,( bearing in mind the access is on upper floor looking down 15ft) also the decking that was on staircase walkway was a tad slippery when wet . In my opinion an accident waiting to happen. Apartment not suitable for people with mobility issues!
28/10/2023
We really enjoyed our stay in Seahouses. Very comfortable flat.
27/10/2023
Apartment lovely although smaller than anticipated and lacking comfort. OK for use as a base. Location although already aware of it it was very disappointing. Two views , the back of shops & a restaurant from kitchen window. The sights outside the back of the restaurant were an eyeopener. The second view , the main car park in Seahouses was the view from the lounge area. A high pitched humming could be heard in the bedroom at night ? from a generator affected my ears . I wore ear buds & played music to block it . Excess noise from the flat above at night and early morning a problem , sounded like furniture being moved around. Seahouses is one of our favourite places and this year we were recuperating and not traveling to other places like we normally would so the apartment was very convenient for all the places we wanted to be near to and handy for bobbing back to during the day. We made good use of the shops, restaurants and takeaways as they were literally on the doorstep.We also frequented the spa across the car park.<br/><br/>I did not like communicating with three parties . Booking.com, Host and Stay and the link to Super hog to make payment for damage waiver cover. The humming from the generator . The views which are fleetingly mentioned in the details when advertised on all sites but although we know the area very well still came as a disappointment .
24/10/2023
Excellent location. Basic but clean and functional.
18/10/2023
Perfect location to explore the coast. Seahouses is a lovely town and has lots of lovely shops and pubs. The flat was spotless and perfect for two.
16/10/2023
Great little apartment. Very modern and clean, ideal for a weekend stay. Seahouses is a perfect location and this place is very central.

04/10/2023
Location was ideal, situated in the centre of town with an allotted parking space. Everything we needed was in the apartment from cooking to cleaning. A very nice place to stay.<br/><br/>The mattress on the bed was the biggest issue for both me and my wife. We both said it was the worst mattress we had ever slept on it was so uncomfortable, this has been mentioned in previous posts. I also think if you have 2 cleaners coming in after your stay they could do a better job ie make sure all pots and pans are clean and the portable hoover is emptied of debris, just little touches I know. I also had to report damage to freezer door (broken )and worktop as I’d paid an insurance on the property.

Absolutely fine for a 2 night stay, but rather over priced for the quality. I guess that is due to local market forces.<br/><br/>Car parking access very tricky.

Clean comfortable great position in town and parking good.<br/><br/>A very large shower that was very slippery and no handles and only a very small shower mat that covered a very small part of the tray. No shelves for shampoo. I nearly fell over. The sofa was very low and soft. Very difficult to get out of. No other option available to sit on in the lounge.
26/07/2023
Had everything we needed for a short stay in the area. Clean and comfortable.<br/><br/>Didn't think all the emails before our trip were necessary (21 in total). Most of the information duplicated several times. <br/>Would have also appreciated hard copy of info to refer to in the apartment.

02/07/2023
Good size apartment in a central location with free parking Bed linen and towels were spotless thankfully<br/><br/>Poor access due to neighbours outdoor bench blocking the stairway. Bed so uncomfortable and castors on laminate floor made it very dangerous. Was once very nice but a bit shabby now I took multi purpose wipes as usual and needed them to give everything a once over but I am a bit picky like that. Free Wi-Fi not available for 2 out of 3 nights

18/06/2023
Excellent location - right in the middle of Seahouses, so only needed to use the car once during the 4 night stay. Apartment had all the basics you needed . So ideal for two people...<br/><br/>The metal stairs up to the apartment are fine for the fit and healthy and if you're very careful but could be a bit tricky if you're not great on your feet. It was dry and sunny during our stay... in winter the steps might be a bit more difficult...

The apartment was central and near all amenities.<br/><br/>The entrance to the apartment was through an alley way and into a back court. There was lots of litter lying about and the front door actually faces the rear of a bakers shop and an Indian restaurant. The stairs up to the apartment were fairly steep and an elderly or infirm person would struggle. Sofa could do with a good clean and the apartment itself could do with a freshen up. Also Wifi does not work.

The location was TERRIBLE On ground floor with view on a heavy trafficked parking plot on one side and a rear parking on the other Not to mention the rubbish bins just outside the bedroom window

Good commuincations leading up to the stay clear guidance for picking up the keys and lock box code<br/><br/>We have stayed at this property before <br/>But this time we felt it was very tired not very clean not sure if the host is checking or who they are using to clean but the bedroom was very dusty the bathroom was not clean the shower head was filthy and the kitchen area had a 3 legged table and this lead to a smal bowl being broken as it fell off <br/>The bathroom grouting is in poor condition which just makes it not feel like a nice clean place to stay <br/>If it was charged at “budget” rates then you would overlook this but the cost at circa £120 per night we expected the place to be a lot cleaner

The apartment was very clean, tidy and fresh looking. Very well designed to maximize the space, everything needed for a comfortable stay.<br/><br/>There was no WiFi on day 1, apparently the monthly allowance was used up.

Spacious, clean apartment centrally located.<br/><br/>Parking and access to the apartment was opposite the rear of an Indian restaurant and shop, parking a little tight but it was safe and free.
26/04/2023
general very clean with a well equipped kitchen<br/><br/>very basic accommodation, sparsely furnished. filthy exterior carpark, mainly from Indian restaurants opposite. cigarette butts, food waste, directly outside the flat and litter strewn across the car park.

quiet central location. left the car and walked everywhere<br/><br/>Nothing
05/10/2022
location and facilities<br/><br/>a stale, musty smell in the bathroom that wouldn’t go away.
26/09/2022
The apartment was spotless and had everything we needed. Having Netflix and Prine on the telly was great when we were in the apartment. The bed was really comfy and there was a fantastic shower. The apartment was centrally located and the parking space was great being right outside the door.<br/><br/>A long mirror would be a bonus. Also we received about 15 messages from Host and Stay through email, text and on Booking.com messages which was a bit much including about 5 messages telling us we had to leave at 10am. A few less messages would have been better.

Nice hot water and shower, good kitchen facilities, good location ,nice comfortable eating area<br/><br/>All good only think I struggled with was the pillows uncomfortable but saying that pillow are very personal thing.
20/09/2022
Location, simple comfort<br/><br/>Tricky to lock front door
16/09/2022
As described, the ideal location for exploring the Northumbrian coast and very convenient for access to amenities in Seahouses. No views from the windows/set behind the high street so best used as a base for exploring nearby rather than staying in.
16/09/2022
Good location, excellent property, very clean. All the facilities we required
08/09/2022
Extremely clean<br/><br/>nothing
03/09/2022
The flat itself was really lovely, clean and bright with everything we needed.<br/><br/>Unfortunately the bathroom had the worse smell ever. We opened the window and left fan on but it didn't make much difference. It was so bad i felt I couldnt stay in there too long, no showering. It was obvious there was a problem as there were several air fresheners all in one area. As we were only stopping 3 nights not showering wasn't really a problem, a week would of been different though.

Brilliant central location. Reserved parking right outside the apartment. Immaculately clean. Comfy bed. Great shower. Lots of space. Every facility. A few essentials were already on site, kitchen roll, toilet rolls, tea, coffee, sugar, etc.<br/><br/>To make the apartment perfect the bedroom needs a mirror. We took the console table (not needed in the kitchen) into the bedroom to use as a dressing table to the left of the radiator, but there was no mirror. Girls need to do makeup and hair. <br/> <br/>It would have been useful to be told it was behind No38 and you needed to drive down the ally beside 38. Also it was Flat 1, the documents said Ocean Pearl which is fine but Flat 1 makes more sense. <br/> <br/>A small dining table and 2 chairs would have been good for eating in, there's plenty of space for these.

Lovely, very clean flat, and ideal location! It’s a ground floor flat with the front overlooking the back of a restaurant and the back overlooking a car park, but pretty quiet given the central location, and with the sea so close by, we didn’t mind not having a great view!
26/08/2022
It was the perfect stay! Great location, extremely clean and comfy!! Seahouses is stunning and has the best fish and chips which is only a 2minute walk away! We enjoyed many a beach walk during our stay and even walked to Bambrugh which is only 3miles along the beach! Great value for money, I will definitely be returning here again!
24/08/2022
Flat was clean and comfortable<br/><br/>The location of the flat was a bit disappointing but only because it was round the back of commercial properties which were a bit unattractive and perhaps a little smelly. Sort of surrounded by commercial waste skips! <br/>No one's fault but this would definitely deter me from re booking.
22/08/2022
Clean, comfortable and convenient<br/><br/>The courtyard in front of the flat was covered <br/>with litter & cigaret stubs. <br/>Noise from opposite Restaurant kitchen went on <br/>till 2am with no consideration.
18/08/2022
Perfectly laid out property. Everything looked new . Comfortable bed and couch. Very clean.<br/><br/>The area to the rear entrance was a bit of an eyesore and the front overlooked a car park but the place is so central to Seahouses it really did not matter .

Very small <br/>Horrible smell
07/07/2022
Location was superb, a great place to explore the area from. Flat was comfortable, has all the amenities you'd want (toaster, dishwasher etc). Bathroom was very nicely appointed, I did like the walk in shower.<br/><br/>Personally I found the bed a little soft, I prefer a firmer bed but I recognise that's subjective so I wouldn't mark the property down for it.
03/07/2022
We self catered so not applic<br/><br/>The smell in the bathroom
26/06/2022
The property is very well equipped and everything is immaculate. It is very well placed right in the centre of Seahouses, within a couple of minutes walk from the shops, restaurants and pubs.<br/><br/>There were large windows that only had roller blinds, so everyone walking past in the public car park or going into the adjoining properties could see right in. <br/>The ceiling lights in the lounge/kitchen were very bright, a couple of lamps or an uplighter would have given a softer light.
21/06/2022
Spacious, comfortable and well equipped.<br/><br/>Could do with better blackout blinds in bedroom.
16/06/2022
Great location, communication with hosts was excellent, on the whole clean, comfortable apartment.<br/><br/>just a few minor details, light over shower was not working, no hooks in the bathroom to hang gowns etc on but nothing major.
13/06/2022
excellent<br/><br/>shower support bar was a bit loose.
08/06/2022
Lovely and clean, good location, everything that you would need.<br/><br/>View from kitchen, overflowing bins and black bags ripped open by birds etc at the Indian restaurant in the yard.
06/06/2022
Lovely clean and modern apartment right in the centre of seahouses. 2 minutes walk from all the pubs and restaurants. Would definitely go back again. It ticked all the boxes and more.
03/06/2022
The accommodation was clean and comfortable. Although the location is very central in Seahouses, it’s only fair that people should know that opposite the property is the back of a very busy Indian restaurant with the associated late night staff noises. On the other is a very busy main carpark that is also running until late. Also be aware that the alley way entrance has scaffolding up the walls on both sides. Anything wider than a standard saloon could pose a problem and should be approached with caution.

Light, clean, and airy with everything we needed. The central location was a bonus although noisy in the evening.<br/><br/>View of carpark and bins not very<br/>inspiring
20/05/2022
Great location for what I wanted to do. Didn't expect the apartment to be ground floor, and does overlook a car park which wasn't an issue but felt exposed. Good communication. Was clean, spacious and comfy. Some noise from flat above but was ok.
18/05/2022
central location was great<br/>also well equipped<br/><br/>the bed tended to move about a bit
15/05/2022
Good location in the centre of Seahouses, but don't expect a picturesque situation. Very clean and well equipped for all types of weather. <br/>Perfect for reaching places up and down the coast. Castles galore.
12/05/2022
The property was close to shops and some nice eating places. It was well equipped and everything was clean and in good working order. There was plenty of wardrobe space. The shower room/toilet was roomy with a large shower cubicle and the bed was comfortable. Great places to visit in the area including Alnwick Castle, Bamburgh Castle, Holy Island and our favourite, a Farne Islands Boat Trip.<br/><br/>It was a bit tight to get our large car into the parking area as there was scaffolding on the buildings either side of the entrance. There was one allocated parking space, once when we came back from a day out someone had parked in it but they did move it when asked. The view from the property is not great, a car park at the front and the back of shops where the entrance door was, there was rubbish and cigarette butts right outside the entrance door which didn't give a good first impression.
03/05/2022
Lovely and clean.Great location,<br/>Great communication with host<br/>Comfy bed<br/>Good shower<br/><br/>Parking was a bit tight, but due to scaffolding

Great central location. Basic but has everything needed for a short break.
11/04/2022
very clean, excellent location, well equipped apartment<br/><br/>The bed was on castors and moved when you sat on it, a bit hazardous just needs some of those little circular castor stops underneath. I found the bed hard but my husband was ok with it.
11/04/2022
Great little place just off the main street.....amazing location.<br/>spotlessly clean<br/>had everything we needed. comfy bed and lovely clean bathroom. <br/>Good communication and no issues. Will stay again. thank you

Lovely new clean apartment- really conveniently situated for amenities, pubs restaurants etc.
08/02/2022
Everything was perfect. Modern, lacked for nothing, spotlessly clean & great location. The owner went above & beyong to sort out an unexpected problem.
29/01/2022
Small and quaint. Comfy sofa, lovely comfy bed and a sizeable bathroom.<br/><br/>The kitchen worktop hadn't been cleaned, the bathroom shelves were dirty, there were pubes in the shower! Definitely needed a better clean! The kitchen would have benefited from more bits and bobs ie - salt and pepper.
21/11/2021
The location was central & there was plenty of hot water.<br/><br/>The apartment was behind shops that left there piles of rubbish out,the staircase leading up to the flat had rubbish,cigarette butts & large weeds one of which I had to move as it was prickly.There was also empty alcohol bottles lying from people hanging about.The flat itself was perfectly serviceable.However there was dust & fluff on the headboard top hair hairs from previous occupiers in the bath plughole.In times like this when hygiene is meant to be top priority I then started to think if the flat had been properly cleaned between letts! The bed was beyond uncomfortable it was a brick board I eventually got up & slept on the couch.My partner was suffering from a sore back due to how uncomfortable it was.
08/11/2021
Lovely, clean and bright apartment. Everything you need for a weekend away. Perfect location for exploring Northumberland and the east coast.
05/11/2021
Everything you need. Great to be able to leave car outside. Comfortable.
29/10/2021
Lack of kitchen storage own food stuffs. Noise from the flat above off putting, and position poor in a picturesque village.However inside the flat is well equipped clean and brightly decorated. Noise from the busy yard and very busy public car park on the other side is not evident due to the excellent insulation.
29/10/2021
Clean & organised. Parking space provided.<br/><br/>No table & chairs for meals & sofa not comfortable enough
23/10/2021
Beautiful place to stay. the landlords have though of everything and nothing is missing. It's a bit modern with everything you need in it. It is incredibly warm if you want it to be. Bathroom is lovley too plenty of hot water. Kitchen is great equiped with a dishwasher and a washing machine too. All new when we visited, we had a great time and very cosy place to watch TV, Netflix before bed.
21/10/2021
The property was clean and well equipped with everything we needed in the open plan kitchen/living space. The bathroom had a good shower and there were plenty of towels. There is a small wardrobe that had ample space for a short stay. The apartment is located just off the Main Street behind a row of shops and restaurants, everything was on the doorstep, including a bakery, independent greengrocers and a good sized Co-Op. It was a few minutes walk down to the harbour and 10-15 minutes walk from the beach leading up to Bamburgh. There is a parking space right outside the door to the apartment in the private courtyard. Once we had parked the car, we didn’t use it for the first couple of days as we could explore the area by walking and by boat! We spent most of our days outside of the flat so the two points below did not affect us much as it was getting dark by the time we returned.<br/><br/>Only views were on to a public car park at the front and the private car park at the rear. There is no outside seating area.
13/10/2021
Ideal for 2 people but no more. Modern and well designed. Ensuite bathroom with modern walk in shower <br/>Kitchen had all the necessities and was clean and tidy <br/>Located just off the main road so extremely close to shops and restaurants and the very pleasant harbour area<br/><br/>Hard to find property from instructions as located behind shops
11/09/2021
This is a lovely new place, it's a little smaller than it looks on the photos but adequately big enough for a cozy stay for two. couldn't be a better location, right in the middle of town, but set back from the road so nice and quiet. 20 seconds to coop and bakers, 2 minutes to the pub. Bit pricey I think for size but probably paying for location. oh and the bathroom is behind the wardrobe sliding doors, I thought it didn't have one for a moment ?
02/09/2021
We had a fantastic stay at the Ocean Pearl apartment in Seahouses. The apartment has clearly recently been renovated and was very stylish and comfortable. We had everything we could have needed for our stay and it was very clean. The location is perfect for all of Northumberland’s attractions and it was lovely to be able to walk down to the harbour and along the coast to Bamburgh. It’s very central and a real plus that it has its own parking space. <br/>The businesses and neighbours nearby were very quiet and we had a couple of great nights sleep. Hope we can stay again in the future.
20/08/2021
Great little place for a short break in the area. Easy access to all the castles down the coast and Lindisfarne.
17/08/2021
Great little place. Pictures are exactly what to expect. Very easy to access, straight off main high street with plenty of restaurant choices and pubs. Bamburgh only 5 min down road with lovely walks and views. Would recommend.
