Farne View
With its prime spot on Seahouses harbour, Farne View is the perfect spot for guests seeking the quintessential seaside holiday. Seahouses is widely regarded as one of the UK’s most popular seaside towns, blending the reassuring bustle of a small fishing harbour with mile upon mile of unspoilt sandy beaches in the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Farne View places all that Seahouses has to offer right on your doorstep, adding immaculately presented interiors in light, neutral tones peppered with nautical touches and pops of colour. Snuggle up by the electric fire after bracing autumn and winter beach walks or, in the warmer months, fold back the French doors to let the sea air into the open-plan living area and enjoy al fresco dining on the sheltered, sunny balcony to the rear.
The dual aspect, open-plan living area that spans the first floor of Farne View enables guests to kick back and watch the comings and goings of the picturesque harbour from the comfort of the sofa. The well-appointed kitchen is set slightly back from the spacious living area and provides easy access to the dining table, which comfortably seats six guests.
On the ground floor, you’ll find three compact but well-presented bedrooms (one double, one twin, one bunk). Each bedroom capitalises on space and features lovely little nautical design features, with two adding harbour views.
Beyond the fishing boats that bob in Seahouses harbour lie the magical Farne Islands, home to one of England’s foremost seabird colonies and a large grey seal colony. Get acquainted with the islands and their residents by strolling down to the harbour and hopping on a guided boat trip. The comforting flash of Longstone Lighthouse on Outer Farne serves as a poignant reminder of local heroine Grace Darling, famous for her courageous exploits rescuing shipwreck survivors with her father during a storm in 1838.
In addition to serving as the gateway for sea voyages to the Farne Islands, Seahouses is ideally positioned for exploring the attractions and sights of the wider Northumberland coast. Enjoy lazy lunches in convivial pubs, wander along dune-fringed beaches, learn to kite-surf or simply relax with a glass of bubbly as you watch the sun sink into the sea from your private balcony.
