5 Bed Cottage in North Sunderland

About this property

Nestled within a collection of 250-year-old sycamore trees, this 200-year-old holiday home near Seahouses offers elegant accommodation for up to 11 guests exploring the Northumberland coastline. Seahouses Beach is just 1 mile away, and with its many shops, restaurants and a picturesque harbour, it's easy to lose a day in this popular village. For an exciting adventure, catch a boat from the harbour and head over to the Farne Islands, where wildlife spotters will love catching glimpses of the resident seals and puffins. For seasoned walkers, enjoy a stroll along the Northumberland Coast Path or venture inland to discover many scenic trails in the Northumberland National Park (20 miles). When you want to slow down adventures, this unique property offers access to a members-only leisure club for a small fee, featuring a swimming pool, spa, treatments, a gym, and a bistro.

Enter this 200-year-old property, where muddy boots can be deposited in the main entrance hall. Step into the welcoming lounge to discover a cleverly designed space with seating positioned around the wood burner and TV, and colourful decor that provides a cheery atmosphere. Move into the dining room, where another wood burner takes central stage and through to the modern kitchen, which hosts all the appliances and kitchenware needed for a comfortable stay. Put your laundry on in the utility here, before soaking in the rays in the sunroom. When night falls, take your pick from five beautifully designed bedrooms: a spacious super king-size on the ground floor, along with two super-king-size, one king-size room and a twin upstairs. Each bedroom benefits from access to its own en-suite shower room, while one of the super-king-size rooms also enjoys a bathroom complete with a spa bath for indulgent soaks.

The enclosed garden is a fantastic size for kids and dogs, and with the addition of the Kota, featuring full BBQ facilities, we're convinced you'll spend lots of time out here dining and soaking up the sun. Alternatively, and for a small fee, spend the day at the members-only leisure club, where you can swim in the pool, take part in a weights session or enjoy a soothing spa treatment. The property features private parking for four cars.
