The space

The Old Smokey is a welcoming and peaceful getaway set amid the bustling yet tranquil coastal village of Seahouses.

Upon entering the property, the open plan living, kitchen and dining area is directly ahead of you. If you enjoy cooking, you will love this space - it is fully equipped with an electric hob and oven, a dishwasher, a microwave, a kettle, a refrigerator, a toaster, and more.

The dining and living areas provide a good space to socialise, with plenty of seating available to accommodate all four guests. The two-seater sofas offer a cosy spot to relax and you can watch your favourite show on the large wall-mounted Smart TV.

The living room offers direct access to the shared courtyard with a small outdoor paved seating area. The French doors created a bright atmosphere but offer comfort with the use of internal wooden doors which create a relaxing setting at night.

Head upstairs and you’ll find The Old Smokey’s two bedrooms. Fully carpeted, the first bedroom boasts a king-size bed along with hanging space for your clothing. The calming interiors are perfectly complemented by the subtle touch of pink hues from the soft furnishings, creating a warm and cosy ambience.

The ensuite features a walk-in shower, a WC, and an oval mirror above the wash basin.

Not too far away is the second bedroom, which offers two single beds, fully carpeted flooring, and your own en-suite bathroom with scroll top bath, WC and basin with oval mirror above. Please note, there is no shower in this bedroom. The pale green, grey and white colour scheme create a cosy and homely feel. This bedroom features plenty of storage space for making yourself feel right at home, and French doors which open up to allow fresh Northumberland sea air to float into the space.

Guests can also take advantage of a separate WC on the ground floor, handy for families with young children and guests with limited mobility.

The Old Smokey is simply the perfect place to stay whether you're here alone, with friends and family, or even colleagues.

Lovely cottage, great location

This is a lovely cottage in a beautiful location. However, it could do with a deep clean and the en-suite in the double bedroom could do with some attention. A couple of issues were reported and acknowledged and the hosts did offer assistance, but we preferred to wait until our departure.

This is our second year visits the Old Smokey and we have some lovely memories here. Fab location with a private parking space. However we don’t plan to come back. The cost of our stay has pretty much doubled since last year! I almost didn’t book it this time due to this uplift but had left it late and didn’t have many other good options available. As a repeating customer they offer you 10% off but I’d forgotten to do this on payment and they were unwilling to give me the discount. Which I feel is bad service especially as we are repeat guests. Everything seemed as it was the previous year, lovely little cosy cottage. But once we needed to use the en suite shower we discovered that it hadn’t been maintained. Grout was mouldy, the chain from the shower head dirty and black, the floor boards lifting at the foot of the shower and grotty mould under the sink basin. Very disappointing considering the price hike! We are quite sad as thought we would repeat stay for years to come.

A very cosy cottage in a great spot minutes from the harbour. Communication from the hosts was excellent, the instructions to get in were easy to follow. Being a small cottage, storage in the bedrooms is limited but we were only there for 4 nights so between the hangers provided and putting suitcases under the beds,we were fine. Beds were comfortable. Shower was adequate, water pressure could be variable upstairs, do not flush a toilet or run taps when someone is having a shower though. Well specced kitchen, huge fridge and freezer, Wi-Fi is good and tv has all the channels. The location is quiet, no noise at night. For us, the main (and only) negative was the access to the courtyard and ease of parking. We had a Kia Sportage, so not huge, but getting in and out was tricky due to vans parked by the arch and other cars in the courtyard. Luckily courtyard always had one space free to help with manoeuvring but if all were taken, would have been nearly impossible to get out.
