About this property
A beautiful semi-detached house resting in the coastal town of Seahouses and with views of Bamburgh Castle and the Farne Islands, Glenavon is ideal for a group of adults looking to explore Northumberland. Be welcomed by off-road parking and unpack with ease into this property, before finding yourself in a lovely blue-painted sitting room where bay windows draw in natural light and stunning sea views can be enjoyed as you sip a coffee in one of the stylish tartan sofas. When mealtimes call, a kitchen with many home-from-home amenities will cater to your culinary needs, and you can enjoy a meal together in the dining room where large glass windows and doors give this space an airy feel. Take a relaxing shower in a spacious bathroom before settling down for the night in one of the three bedrooms, a double with a TV and bay windows, as well as plenty of built-in storage, a twin with coral walls and a homely single. Alfresco dining can be enjoyed in the back garden where there is a patio with furniture, as well as a large grass area. Seahouses is a fantastic coastal location with plenty for you to do, beginning with the incredible sandy beach just a short distance from the property, and you can explore the coast further with walks through Annstead Dunes Nature Reserve or Serenity Farne Island Boat Tours. Seahouses also has a golf course and a selection of eateries, however if you travel a little further you will find Bamburgh with its amazing castle and sandy beach and beyond that, Holy Island. Make a seaside getaway to remember with a stay at Glenavon.
A bustling, pretty fishing village with an attractive harbour, situated on the beautiful Northumbrian coast in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Seahouses offers a variety of shops and a good selection of inns, pubs and eating places. Nearby are miles and miles of splendid sandy beaches and the opportunity to visit the bird sanctuary or seal colony on the famous Farne Islands with boat trips running daily from Seahouses, is not to be missed. There are numerous castles and great houses to explore, such as the magnificent castles at Bamburgh, Cragside, and Alnwick (home of the Duke of Northumberland), to mention just a few. Golf, fishing and riding are also available locally.

This house is in need of a Deep Clean. There are areas where it has not been cleaned for a long time. The beds and pillows are unconfortable to me. We are used to memory foam and these beds are sprung mattress. We have been to the Glenevon two times now. We love Seahouses and have been many times. We will book this house again...
