The apartment is in need of maintenance. There were too many things broken, not enough comfortable seating for the number of guests, poor cooking appliance, no blind in the bathroom, broken blind in the bedroom.

We've been to Seahouses before so we were keen to stay by the beach. The Puffin's Nest was right on the seafront, with views looking out onto the beach and sea. It was really peaceful but also very close to walk into Seahouses itself - about 10 minutes I think. The flat was lovely and was easy to find. The parking was a little tricky, but I think that's probably due to my driving :-) Overall, it's a great place and we'd love to stay there again.

The location is stunning, a 10 minute walk to the centre of Seahouses and the beach is just over the road with a 5-10 min walk down to it. The apartment itself was nice but it needs work. The entry is via a set of steep metal stairs which my mother struggled with and we weren’t told of this in advance. There were scuffs and marks on a lot of the walls, the vacuum cleaner had exposed wires, one of the shower taps was loose and started to hang off, I found squished dead bugs on the main bedroom blind, the doors all scrape shut so we disturbed each other when getting up. I found cobwebs and dust behind a set of drawers in my room and on the bedside lamp, this didn’t help my allergies. We both had issues with the beds, we ended up sliding out of them, think this was due to the mattress and the sheets fabric. Raised all these issues with host and was promised someone would come and rectify but they didn’t. All in all, it’s a nice spot but it’s currently not worth the price being charged

We stayed in a lovely house in seahouses called Puffins nest. We booked as a short break to get away from it all. The account matched the photos, it was lovely and the view was amazing. We could see the sea from bed and bamburgh castle from the window. We got to see lovely sunset over the castle. My daughter loved the house. The hosts were very helpful, friendly and responsive to any question. Check in and out was smooth and we were given lots of helpful information about the area and to find the property. Such a lovely place would be happy to return again.

We were blown away by the accomodations location. The view across the sea and beach was spectacular. The accomodation is clean and tidy. The check in process is simple and clear. The locality to amenities such as restaurants and shops is ideal for us, a brisk 8 minute walk. Access to the beach is only a 3 minute walk. The water pressure, temperature and shower were great. The premises has a great heating system that meant we didn't need to be constantly turning heating up and down to be comfortable during our stay. The dining area is carpeted, though not a detrimental factor, those with young children should bear this in mind. There is an easy to clean floor in the hallway and kitchen though. The access steps are quite steep with short rising and going, again not a detrimental factor, but something to be aware of. We are looking forward to hopefully having a return visit in the near future to see some more of the beautiful surroundings.

Lovely cottage, quiet location on the canal. perfect for a few days walking but limited places to eat in Fort Augustus if that is what yu would like. (We were there in February though so pretty quiet).

The apartment is lovely and a great stay. However, the location that every map app takes you to is not the right one it's about 5 buildings over. Host and Stay were essentially useless when I called as they have never been to the property. They also didn't send me a verification email so I was delayed when checking in. It took 2 hours for me to check in from when I arrived due to the poor service by host and Stay and the wrong location. if they provide a sign like all the other rentals do and update the location error then it would be a great place to rent for everyone. All in all we had a great time but a 2 hour wait to check in due to the company's error without so much as an email to apologise isn't okay in today's world of business.

Lovely location, lovely flat with lovey decor, only thing that was a let down as not enough hot water. I messaged the owner to be informed on first night hot water was on demand and then when we ran out of water on second night after one bath and after few messages back and forth we were informed, water was provided by tank and had to be filled up once hot used. Thanks

We had a lovely family holiday, comfy beds although 6 adults may struggle ideal if children in your party. The only downside is the outside metal steps to access the property my 85 year old mother struggled but fine if your fit and healthy. Close to centre an easy stroll. Everything you need is provided and internet works well, the bathroom is stunning

It’s a lovely property and we’re enjoying our time here. The flat is decorated to a high standard with a lovely sea view! However the pillows are all very hard and deep so we both found it difficult to sleep comfortably. In the end we opted for sleeping on a makeshift pillow out of a towel as that was more comfortable. The blind in the main bedroom is broken at the pulley mechanism so we had to rolll this up by hand. The house is advertised for 6 people, with space for 6 in the beds and at the table. However, there are only 4 sets of cutlery. Although there are more than 6 mugs, more than half of these are obviously old/chipped, do not have proper handles and look like they are someone’s cast offs. Not what we’d expect in a property in this price range. Finally, when people come to stay at a place like this, with a kitchen and dining table, they will most likely be cooking. As such, it would be very helpful to provide basics in the cupboard, such as salt, pepper, spices and oil. It’s lovely that there are teas provided, but the lack of these staples is really inconvenient for cooking. The property is wonderfully decorated and enjoyable to be in, however it feels as if there’s been an oversight on some of these things which really affect the enjoyment of the stay once you get past the initial impression.

Fabulous views from the windows across the sea and all the way to Bamburgh castle. Great location- walking distance to Seahouses town amenities, and only 3 miles from Bamburgh. Accessed Alnwick castle as well as Holy island. Flat was clean, all of the furniture was lovely and comfortable for our stay. We had a little difficulty finding the door to the flat, it is round the back of the building up a flight of stairs, the owner of the property below mentioned guests often find it difficult to find the entrance. Unfortunately, the listing wasn’t accurate for the flat, some of the items listed were not available for us to use. However, we still had an enjoyable holiday and the location is great for exploring Northumberland.

Beautiful location. Perfect for a family break. We had one small child and brought our dog along also. It was a perfect beach holiday with lots of other attractions near by. The location cannot be beaten. Amazing views. Close to the beach and also in easy walking distance to the village. The inside is perfect for everything you need. Comfortable and cosy.
