The only negative is the 9am departure, this just made the end of the holiday feel rushed. It felt like you were being swept out the door. Such a shame, as it was very welcoming at the start.

lovely house with plenty of space, a couple of down points was that it is very cold in there the radiators are Wi-Fi controlled so we couldnât change them. There was a strange smell as you first walk through the door and also when you walk out of the door which appeared to be drifting from next door. A bit disappointing that we lost 2 days of our holiday due to not being able to check in while 4pm and then had to check out at 9am.

It is clean and spacious and close to all the village amenities. Seahouses is a beautiful village with nice independent shops, plenty of places to eat and close to other villages and towns within a short walk or drive. Both village and Butcherâs Retreat are dog friendly which is ideal with having 2 Cocker Spaniels. I would highly recommend staying at Butcherâs Retreat when holidaying in Seahouses.
