Snaptrip says
Seal Bay is frequently praised for its spaciousness, comfort, and stunning views, particularly of Budle Bay and Bamburgh Castle. Guests appreciate the property's convenience to local attractions and its suitability for birdwatching and stargazing. While most experiences are positive, a few guests noted areas for improvement regarding security lighting and an incident with a resident.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests found the apartment to be spotlessly clean. However, one guest mentioned confusion over whether provided linens were clean, slightly affecting the overall impression of cleanliness.
The location is highly praised for its amazing views and proximity to local sights such as Bamburgh, Lindisfarne, and Seahouses. It is deemed perfect for walking, sightseeing, and enjoying tranquility.
Guests generally find the property comfortable, with warm spaces and comfortable beds. However, one review mentioned a living room with no windows, which detracted from the daytime relaxation experience.
Facilities are considered adequate for cooking and the property is well-equipped. Some guests suggested improvements for convenience and enjoyment, such as better security lighting and clearer instructions for provided linens.
While a welcome pack is mentioned, which indicates thoughtfulness, there is insufficient information to determine if such gestures are consistent or to what extent they impact guests' experiences. Therefore, it cannot be guaranteed that such gifts will be provided.

Mrs Robinson
The living room has no windows and felt like being in a cellar. The kitchen sofa is very small and not suitable for 2 so no where to relax during the day

The property is ideally situated for commuting to a variety of locations worth visiting,everything we needed was available so was truly like a home from home,would recommend this property to anyone,we were sad to have to come home and could have quite easily stayed longer.

The property is in an excellent location and has a great view of Budle Bay. There are adequate facilities to cook your own meals and some excellent places to eat out - would recommend the Elan Pizzeria in Seahouses. However there are some small niggles which could be improved to assist with convenience and enjoyment of the stay.
