Think Art Deco style with a French twist… this fabulous three bedroom cottage offers spacious accommodation over two floors - the pretty enclosed courtyard leads into a double height atrium. The kitchen has a lovely range style cooker in a inglenook fireplace and the spacious sitting room has plenty of comfortable sofa seating for all. Upstairs the three bedrooms are all beautifully furnished in coastal colours. Everything about Bega’s Bead is charming… whether you have just a few days or a couple of weeks, be sure to book early!
This really is a great base for exploring this beautiful area - visit the Farne Islands to observe the seabirds and the colony of Grey Seals. 3 miles north is the impressive Bamburgh Castle which clings to a rocky outcrop, and it’s just 5 miles to Holy Island and Lindisfarne (accessible at low tide along the causeway). Just south of Seahouses is Beadnell Bay with its unique west facing harbour for sailing, windsurfing and scuba diving. Good golfing (0.5 miles), fishing and horse riding available locally.
