About this property

Situated in an elevated position overlooking the North sea is this delightful first-floor apartment, Sea Snug. Boasting tremendous views and a sought-after off-road parking space, this property is ideal for a small family or two couples looking for a coastal escape, any time of year. On arrival at the apartment, a private entrance invites you in and leads you straight up to the first-floor dwelling. On entering the open-plan living space, the chic, sea-themed décor fits with the surrounding seaside charm and compliments the floor-to-ceiling views over the beach and open sea. Take advantage of the kitchen area and concoct a delicious meal for your loved ones on the electric oven and hob to be enjoyed as a group at the dining table while you plan your next day of adventures; the kitchen also hosts a handy washing machine so you can freshen up your clothes and towels throughout your stay. From here, cosy up on the corner sofa to watch your favourite TV shows after a long day of discovering your surroundings, or perhaps indulge in a good book while admiring the views. When sleep calls, make your way to the bedrooms for some well-earned rest; each bedroom follows the sea-themed décor with tasteful furnishings adding to the quality and charm of this well-thought-out abode. A double bedroom boasts yet more views of the far-reaching sea, along with storage to unpack your belongings, while the second bedroom, a twin, offers a zip and link feature for a flexible sleeping arrangement. Completing the dwelling is a bathroom where you can get ready in style, fit with a bath with shower over, a basin and a WC, while boasting another elegant use of the seaside theme. If you can tear yourself away from this delightful dwelling, treat your loved ones to a meal out in one of the local restaurants. Pizzaiolo offers a delicious Italian menu, while just over the Berwick Bridge you will find plenty more eateries, including Audela, which offers modern British fine dining and a superb wine menu. For days out while staying at the property, why not pay a visit to Berwick-upon-Tweed town centre and enjoy a boat trip along the River Tweed via Berwick Boat trips. For a spot of history during your stay, the remains of the medieval Berwick-upon-Tweed Castle still stand within the town, complete with Renaissance which encompass the town. Bird watchers and animal lovers alike can spend an afternoon at the Andy Howey Birds of Prey centre which is just a scenic drive away and providing unbeatable close encounters with a number of bird species. Further afield, venture into the northern tip of the Northumberland National Park and discover Humbleton Hill for magnificent views across the national park from an elevated position. Closer to home, you can enjoy a day at the beach, paddling in the shallow shores, building sandcastles and savouring the bewitching sea air. Sea Snug is a fantastic property for a memorable break to Northumberland and the Scottish Borders.

Resting on the southern bank of the River Tweed with Berwick-upon-Tweed nearby is the charming coastal town of Spittal. The town hosts an array of shops and pubs with an amusement arcade being a prominent feature for the town's family-friendly image. The beach is widely regarded as one of the nicest in Northumberland, with an annual Seaside Festival taking place, offering fairground rides, live entertainment and a range of food stalls.

    The decor truly made us feel like we were aboard a cozy seaside retreat. The spectacular sea views were the highlight of our stay, offering breathtaking sunrises and the soothing sound of waves crashing against the shore. Every morning, we enjoyed our coffee while gazing out at the ever-changing seascape, and in the evenings, we took leisurely strolls along the promenade, soaking in the serene atmosphere. The apartment was not only beautifully decorated but also well-equipped, making our stay comfortable and relaxing. Thank you Angela for providing such a wonderful place to create lasting memories. We can’t wait to return!

    Also fewer cushions would be better as there is nowhere to store them! I found the bath with the shower over awkward because of the plug positioned in the centre. Some of the cooking utensils had seen better days. These were little niggles that could not take away from the great position on the prom, beautifull sunrises and a very fleeting visit from Dolphins .

    What makes Sea snug exceptional is its location. The view from window is as stunning as everyone says. Spittal prom is charming and lovely to stroll along in the evening when even this year the sun seemed to come out. Buses into Berwick leave regularly from 5 minutes walk away. It’s an ideal base to explore the local area or further afield.
