  • "Absolutely beautiful cottage."

    Lots of space, extremely comfortable & warm, & everything provided that you could wish for. A lovely welcome hamper was provided too! The only thing I wish I’d known beforehand was that dogs aren’t allowed upstairs. Whilst I totally understand & respect this, it would have been good to know when booking as my dog struggles to sleep through if left alone downstairs so I ended up sleeping on the sofa! Perhaps this could be added to the cottage info on Sykes website so dog owners are aware when booking. However, the sofa was extremely comfortable & we had a fantastic weeks holiday!

    Hi Zoe Thank you for your lovely review and I’m pleased that you enjoyed your stay. I’m sorry that you didn’t know that your pet wouldn’t be allowed upstairs. In the Sykes rules on properties (9.5) it clearly states this, however I understand that terms and conditions are lengthy and aren’t always read, I am guilty of the same. I shall speak to Sykes to see if I can get it added to my ‘front page’ and hopefully going forward it will be clearer. Kind Regards Aileen Property Owner

    ! Location was perfect for exploring the surrounding areas, with picturesque beaches, ( especially Druridge Bay ), the pubs, and the lovely people who live in Northumberland. Local amenities were within walking distance as well. We thoroughly enjoyed the holiday, including our dog, and the cottage just made it extra special

  • "Seabreeze Cottage is extremely comfortable, clean, well maintained and well equipped."

    The cottage was lovely and cosy on the day I arrived, which was a blustery, wet October day, with the under floor heating providing a fantastic warmth. The decor and furnishings are really stylish and made staying there really enjoyable. Would like Aileen to come and give my home a makeover! The goody basket was great and a lovely welcoming touch. Aileen was very kind and welcoming too. The cottage was ideally located for the trips I wanted to make both on the coast and inland. Will definitely be visiting again.

    How kind Julia, we do love a positive review. I'm glad that you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to seeing you again. Your comments are lovely. Kind Regards Aileen Property Owner

    Superb location and handy for visits to local beauty spots such as the Wansbeck riverside walk and Woodhorn Museum and lake. Our hosts provided every home comfort and more…..with a scrumptious goody gift. The furniture and decor inside Seabreeze is beautifully coordinated and very tasteful. Plenty parking space and a lovely garden to boot. Really didn’t want to leave.

  • "The cottage was perfect, we had a lovely stay."

    The only thing that struck us was the rule about no dogs upstairs in a dog friendly cottage. When we saw this it was 50/50 if we could stay. Our dog at home sleeps upstairs. There was a chance that in a strange place and not being with us he wouldn’t settle. Luckily he did. I think this should be made more clear at the time of booking.

    Hi Caroline I'm glad that you had a lovely stay at Seabreeze Cottage and I have spoken to Sykes so that we can work together to highlight the 'doggy rules' in order that other guests can make an informed decision when booking a stay with their pet. I genuinely appreciate your honest feedback. Property Owner

Beaches are 2 minutes away and our dog loved his walks there and so did we...Half Moon pub is a 2 minute drive away and the food is lovely . Drift cafe at Creswell beach is superb too.

The property

Seabreeze Cottage is a beautiful, stone built cottage situated in the village of North Seaton on the outskirts of Ashington, Northumberland.

Hosting two double bedrooms the property is ideally placed for exploring the local town of Newbiggin By The Sea and makes a great base for travel along the Northumberland coastal trail where you can visit the famous Alnwick, Warkworth and Bamburgh Castles.

On your return from a days adventure you can rustle up a home cooked meal in the well equipped kitchen and sit down and dine together at the large dining table.

Kick off your shoes and relax in the contemporary, cozy lounge, then settle down on the sofa and enjoy an evening film before heading off to bed.

Both bedrooms have plenty of storage and are quite quaint in character with charming cottage windows, sloping ceilings and the original beams.

The bathroom is situated downstairs and has a shower, bath, basin and w.c.

Seabreeze cottage is built on the remains of North Seaton’s main street, one of the last remaining workmen’s cottages in the village which was built on the South Side along with a Smithy and Shop.

North Seaton was, for many years, the family seat of the Watson family.

They resided in North Seaton Hall which was built around 1710.

The famous architect John Dobson contributed to the building in around 1813 where he added a summerhouse.

The house is long gone but the fine old wall which now fronts the street can still be seen.

Ashington itself was a famous, thriving, mining village.

The Woodhorn Colliery Museum ( 1.5 mile) depicts the lives of coal mine workers and features original buildings and equipment from the former colliery.

A great day out.

Ashingtons Queen Elizabeth Park (1.5mile) is a beautiful spot with a picturesque lake which is often used for paddle boarding and open water swimming.

The bird life is a great treat too.

There is a pub/restaurant to enjoy a meal and a drink.

Just over a mile away from the Cottage is the coastal town of Newbiggin By The Sea with its beautiful beach and rock pools.

There is a ‘links’ golf course too.

The bay itself is home to Sean Henry’s romantic ‘Couple’ sculpture.

The historic town of Morpeth is a short journey away and boasts many stylish bars and independent shops.

The pretty gardens of Carlisle Park attract all ages with a play park for the little ones and during the summer season you can rent a rowing boat and bob around on the River Wansbeck.

Newcastle Upon Tyne sits south of Ashington and is renowned for its nightlife with a variety of galleries and museums.

The famous Quayside is definitely worth a visit to see the splendid bridges such as the Tyne Bridge and the more recent Millennium Bridge.

To the North lies Alnwick, a quaint market town with its famous Castle which is one of the largest inhabited castles in England.

Harry Potter was filmed on location at the Castle in 2000.

Broomstick training is still available at the Castle!

Ashington is the perfect base to explore the best of Northumberand.

Make Seabreeze Cottage your holiday home with plenty of attractions to suit all guests.

Note: One well behaved dog welcome with £20 supplement.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
