  • "It was a pleasure to return to The BoltHole and Seahouses again."

    We’ve stayed here a few times and the owners make sure the property is very clean, well kept , equipped comfortable and welcoming. The welcome pack this time was very appropriate for St Patrick’s Day thank you. Ideal position for the beaches in the area and the eateries and quirky shops of Seahouses. We hope to visit again sometime

  • "The Bothole was extremely well presented, furnished and equipped."

    It was very comfortable, and ideal for our party of six from five to seventy five. The "welcome" pack was generous and the owner immensely helpful when we were in touch with her. Parking was easy too. Of the six or so holiday lets we have had in Seahouses, this was rivalled by one other only whose sole advantage was its being closer to the sea! We would happily return.

    Impressive is an understatement as this cottage is of an exceptional high standard, well decorated, maintained and clean. It was indeed a home from home and we were made to feel valued guests immediately on arrival. A nice friendly note from the owners welcoming us and an outstanding welcome pack accompanied by a bottle of wine. Perfect and we definitely plan to return in the future. Excellent

You can imagine spending many happy holiday hours chilling out on the sofa, lovingly preparing food in the wonderful kitchen area or sitting at the rustic dining table and tucking into long, leisurely meals together.

The conservatory offers a great alternative space to either socialise together or get away from it all and curl up with a good book.

Both double bedrooms even come with a TV so you don’t have to miss out on your favourite telly programme!
