    We had a very enjoyable stay at The Old Manse. The welcome pack was very much appreciated! Being a walking group we thoroughly enjoyed our first visit to stunning Northumberland and the gorgeous coastline. The beds at the property were very comfy and were welcomed at the end of the day. The property was also ideally situated and well equipped. We would be happy to recommend The Old Manse to others!

    We had an excellent stay at The Old Manse. We enjoyed the gigantic garden. We also liked the Ocean Club and we loved walking to the beach nearby and having fun! Thank you for the scones which were provided in the welcome pack, they were delicious!

    We’ve had a lovely stay at The Old Manse. We ate in the BBQ hut on Friday in the rain and enjoyed it, including toasting marshmallows! The accommodation was very well equipped and the welcome pack was a lovely touch. Everything was clean and the en-suites were very great. We were here for Granny’s 80th birthday and we had a fantastic time. We ate at The Olde Ship in Seahouses, had a drink at The Black Swan in Seahouses and visited Holy Island. Totally recommend!
