“Due to a family health emergency the cotrage was only used for two nights.”

Great location though the grassy bank at the back of the property makes it difficult to unload/load car at the back. Had to park on double yellow lines and unload/load car from the front. Not a hardship just something to be aware of. The radiator in the small room was cold even when heating was on. However we managed to warm the bedroom by leaving other doors open.

- Susan, February 2025

So sorry to hear about your family health emergency hope all's well now. There is a paved path just two doors down which takes you from the car park at the rear to the front of the house so no need to use the grass.Will take a look at radiator in small bedroom thanks for your feedback Eric Property Owner
Christine January 2025

“Excellent location just so near to everything, the butchers opposite had excellent breakfast sandwiches so we ended up not cooking any breakfasts .”

Our first night was a bit challenging as the majority of Seahouses was on a 16 hour power cut , however the owner came over with a couple of extra torches for us so we could use upstairs . Having a parking pass was great as could be used in other council car parks we never paid for parking all week. Garden is fully self contained so we had peace of mind for the dogs and there is gated access at the rear however I found the gate a bit of a struggle with gate when coming back in (I am very short though) , I wondered if a combination lock might be beneficial . What I would like to say how friendly people are in Seahouses, wherever you went and in particular there is a newsagent on the Main Street who strangely had electric when we were all off who made me some coffees and told me if I needed hot water to take a flask down and she would fill it for me.

- Christine, January 2025

Thank you for your feedback. So pleased you enjoyed your stay at Hillcrest in Seahouses after your challenging first night you did very well to even get here with the storm. I've put a new latch on the rear garden gate which is lower and much easier to use thanks again and come back soon Eric. Property Owner
Alisdair December 2024

“We had a wonderful stay at Hillcrest over Christmas.”

The cottage was decorated beautifully for Christmas time which we really appreciated. Hillcrest is in a prime location close to shops, pubs & restaurants. Great comfy beds & lovely fluffy towels. It had everything you required. A few points to note: the sofa's in the living/kitchen area could do with replacing as they are well worn & smelly.....we had to use the throws before sitting on them. There were no pillow protectors on pillows. The lighting at the decking area is not very bright & totally insufficient at stairs going down to garden...our dog fell down the stairs as it was dark when we arrived so a sensor light here should be essential also a light or sign on or inside the back gate warning of the step up as again in dark when unloading the car we nearly tripped on this. These are minor suggestions but from a safety point of view essential especially over winter dark months and moreso as there is no lighting at the designated car parking area. We really loved using the wood burner in the evening. This was our 4th visit to Seahouses having previously stayed in King street. We will definitely return to Hillcrest as we both along with our dog had a wonderful stay. Thank you.

- Alisdair, December 2024

thank you for your kind 5 Star review it's very much appreciated, I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Your suggestion have been noted there is a sensor light on the far corner of the out building to cover the steps down to the garden area, I'll check on it and replace it if not working.Thanks again and come back soon Eric Property Owner
Catherine December 2024

“Thank you for having us at lovely Hillcrest… everything you could wish for right on your doorstep.”

Made great use of the parking permit all over Northumberland. Comfy sofa’s, fabulous beds, great shower, warm and cosy. Spotlessly clean…. We loved it

- Catherine, December 2024
Joanne October 2024

“Let’s start with the positives.”

The house is in a great location and had a lot of space for us all. The beds were really comfy and a great shower. We didn’t have any issues with dropping off our bags and parking at the back. The permit was great and we used it at other local car parks too. Seahouses is lovely, great pubs for food & drinks, lots of local shops and a coop across the road. Unfortunately the cleanliness of the house really let it down. On arrival the main room absolutely stank of wet dogs. We had to take out the rugs and put them in the outhouse and purchase candles but the smell never really went. It was manageable in the evenings when we had cooked, had a fire on etc but terrible again in the morning. There was also food under the throws and scatter cushions on the setees that we had to hoover up. This really makes a difference as you expect a certain level of cleanliness. The furniture was really tired and the selection of glasses, cutlery odd, broken and crockery chipped. We didn’t have enough glasses for 4 of us so the kids had to use wine glasses! One of the dining chairs was broken, luckily we found this before sitting on it. There’s was a log fire but no wood. A couple of logs to start off the first night would be been a nice touch. We reported all the above to the letting agents who were lovely and offered a deep clean but we declined as we had cleaned it ourselves. This should be standard before guests arrive. We had a great holiday and absolutely loved Northumberland but couldn’t recommend this property unless it’s had a full deep clean and some TLC.

- Joanne, October 2024

Thank you for your feedback it really helps, I'm so sorry to hear about your issues with the poor cleaning, it is unacceptable and I to have raised this with the letting company. I'm really not happy about it, it's a shame you didn't go straight to the office before you cleaned so they could see it for themselves,again sorry about that i believe someone from the office came up to tightened the lose chair leg and the glasses had been replaced all your other points have been noted.I'm pleased it didn't spoil holiday in Seahouses thanks again Eric Property Owner
Tracey September 2024

“Just enjoyed a fantastic stay at Hillcrest and would definitely return.”

Lovely house in an Ideal location with plenty on the doorstep. The house was perfect for us and two dogs. Loved the enclosed garden. Would recommend staying here. A couple of very minor things which definitely wouldn't put me off were only half a toilet roll between us for the entire stay and half a kitchen roll, no spares left so had to buy own. All of the candles and tealights need replacing as no wax in them. Look forward to returning.

- Tracey, September 2024

Thank you for your feedback I've had a word with the letting agent about the toilet and kitchen rolls or the lack of them which is not acceptable I'm sorry about that. But pleased to hear all else was okay and you enjoyed our wonderful Northumbrian coast come back soon thanks again Eric Property Owner
Cheryl August 2024

“Hillcrest was a perfect place to stay for our first visit to Northumberland.”

Very close to local amenities with a very good supermarket and butchers just across the road. Hillcrest was bigger than we thought when looking at it online. Parking was so easy as a massive car park at the back of the cottage. All free when displaying the permit. Beds were very comfortable and a great shower with plenty of hot water all the time. A big thank you to the owner for making our first visit to this wonderful part of UK. We will definitely be returning as so much more to see.

- Cheryl, August 2024

Thank you for your lovely 5 star review it means a lot, I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Hillcrest. Do please come back one visit is never enough to take it all in. Spread the word about our wonderful Northumbrian coast and country side stay safe and come back soon.Thanks again Eric Property Owner
Anna August 2024

“We’ve just returned from a 3 night break away with family.”

The house is in perfect location as you can walk to all the restaurants, pubs, shops, and harbour. It’s a bit of a walk to the beach so anyone with children we’d suggest you drive to the sand dunes (on the main road towards Bamburgh) and walk through to the beach. It’s free to park too! The house was clean and comfortable and we really enjoyed our stay. Our only negative, the house next door is being renovated so every morning unfortunately we got woken up to LOUD banging (literally on the dot at 8am!) The banging continued throughout the day on/off. We appreciate building works go on, just wish we had been warned in advance. Just to make people aware, staying here in future, it’s best to unload at the back of the house (once you’ve picked up the keys and permit for the car) from the front. The house is situated literally on a roundabout so not ideal to unload at the front, especially with children.

- Anna, August 2024

thank you for your review I have spoken to the builders working on the next door property and the owner, so hopefully they are now more considerate and keep the noise to a minimum they have assured me that the worst is over.Thank again Eric Property Owner
Paul July 2024

“There was a problem with the drains which no one came out to us about, we ended up buying bleach and putting it down the sink but the smell returned in less than 24 hours.”

There is something scratching in the extension roof, some animal. Next door is having work done at weekends which started at 7.30am and was so loud you couldn’t hear the tv. We went out. We rang up the company and no one replied to help us with these problems so we called in and they just apologised and said thanks for letting them know. It’s a lovely house with great situation, though parking and rear access to unload luggage is a challenge but we won’t be coming back unless we were assured all the problems had been fixed. It spoilt our week. Good job the weather was lovely and we could go out.

- Paul, July 2024
Carl July 2024

“A great property.”

Fantastic location. Lovely and clean and well maintained. My two Dachshunds loved the house. Central to everything as described. ( Sorry, we forgot to read the handbook and didn't put the bins out for collection. ). My partner and I and our pooches really enjoyed our stay and we would definitely look to re book in the future.

- Carl, July 2024

Thank you for your kind 5 star review it's very much appreciated. So pleased to hear everything was good for you and your little pooches and you enjoyed your stay at Hillcrest come back soon. Thanks again Property Owner

“Lovely & well appointed property in a very central & ideal location.”

Very clean, easy to access and very comfortable. A little home from home in such a beautiful part of the country. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Christine June 2024

“Kitchen bin was filthy inside.”

No instructions as to how the TV remote in Kitchen area worked. Flashing lights above Kitchen units. Very low sofas,and TV too high.Chopping boards need replacing. Pictures are very dusty. No lock on bathroom door and shower very slow to drain. Rope handrail in garden has rotted, unsafe for children. Rubbish in front garden. Location was perfect beds/bedrooms very comfortable.

- Christine, June 2024

Thank you for your review they all help,I'm sorry about the filthy bin and dust on the pictures will bring that to the attention of the house cleaning team, will also sort lights in kitchen.Bathroom door lock is ordered had no idea there wasn't one sorry,it's an old cottage some of the pipes are old and slow draining.As for the litter in the front garden it's the main street with lots of take aways the street bins get filled to overflowing at night and our forever hungry gull's pull the old papers out and if the wind decides to blow.Because of this we do a regular litter pick. Mind first to mention sofa's to low,tv to high and aren't all remotes the same, power button for on, numbers for channels volume -or+ and menu.Chopping boards will be replaced and rope hand rail fixed. think you been watching tv's 4 in a bed to much anyway thanks again and I do hope you managed to enjoy your stay.

Karen April 2024

“A lovely cottage right in the centre of Seahouses .”

.. perfect location! The cottage was clean, spacious and well-equipped, and the garden was tidy and fully enclosed - perfect for our 2 dogs. The gate leading from the garden to the public car park behind the cottage was very handy, and a big bonus was the parking permit provided - thank you! Would happily stay at Hillcrest again, and have already recommended to friends! Thank you for a great week!

- Karen, April 2024

Thank you for your lovely 5 star review and your recommendation, I'm so pleased you all enjoyed your stay in Seahouses at Hillcrest and come back soon thanks again it's appreciated Property Owner

Yvonne February 2024

“Comfortable, spacious, clean property in the centre of Seahouses, with everything on your doorstep, including a well stocked Co-Op store nearby.”

The enclose garden is great for dogs. A bit tricky to unload luggage due to it being situated on a roundabout, but a parking permit provided for the public car park behind the house was useful, with the car park accessible either from the garden gate, or by a short walk through a well used alley between the local shops behind.

- Yvonne, February 2024

thank you for your kind feedback it helps and is appreciated pleased you enjoyed your stay come back soon Property Owner
Fiona January 2024

“Once inside the cottage it was very nice warm and cozy with nice fixtures and fittings, however getting into the cottage was something else.”

The key safe is next to the front door, but the front door did not open, no matter what you did to it, this was the start, as we wanted to go into the cottage to work out where parking at the rear was, expecting to find a road or back lane, only to realise it was a public car park. This needs to be explained better. Now we have parked the car we were faced with a large bank of muddy grass which we then had to carry our bags up to the cottage, this was not ideal and I feel that if you were not great on your feet you would really struggle, remembering that this is the only access to the cottage, as the front door does not open ! The gate had a broken latch and the bolt to open it was on the inside of the gate, I personally could not reach the bolt, but luckily my husband could! There is a Brocken concrete block that I assume your supposed to stand on to reach the bolt again not great. Taking the door situation into account going out in the evening was not great as you were walking over muddy grass in your good shoes and on one evening I did actually slip over

- Fiona, January 2024

Sorry to hear about your stay at Hillcrest .the front door had swollen with all the wet weather we have had. If only you had telephoned the letting agents you booked with.someone from the maintenance team would have sorted it straight away they're only a few doors away. Yes it's a public car park out the back of the property, I supply a permit for your use and from the car park there are three or four paved foot paths to the main street at the front also Hillcrest has a gate to the side with access to the front there's no need to use the rear garden gate.Once again I'm sorry to hear about your experience but what can I say IF ONLY YOU PHONED the sticking door would have been fixed in no time, that's what the maintenance team are there for so our guests have a trouble free enjoyable stay .thanks for your feedback Property Owner

“A wonderful property , very comfortable and well looked after , we were only there 2 nights but would happily of stayed a lot longer.”

Everything you could want is just about on the doorstop , with a very short walk to the coast . I would happily reccommend Hillcrest to family and friends and would readily go back there in the future .

- Jacqueline, October 2023

Thank you for your great feedback I'm pleased you enjoyed your stay at Hillcrest. But 2 nights is not enough to see all our wonderful Northumbrian coast come back soon. Property Owner
Tom September 2023

“Beautiful property in a great location.”

We enjoyed the proximity to Seahouse's pubs and restaurants. The property was very clean and nicely decorated and furnished. With three of us staying, we managed well, but six might be a struggle with the kitchen facilities and utensils. The fully enclosed garden was great for our dog too - very secure.

- Tom, September 2023

Thank you for your feedback, not sure that i can enlarge the kitchen but I'm pleased you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Sandra September 2023

“Fantastic. We had a lovely week at Hillcrest.”

The house was very clean and comfortable and so convenient for the local amenities. Seahouses is a great little harbour town with plenty of eating out options. Two local dog friendly pubs with great food. Indian and Italian restaurants with takeaway options plus fish and chips galore. So many places to visit nearby including Bamburgh Castle, Lindisfarne, Alnwick to name a few. A bit of a drive to Beamish but well worth a visit. Lovely to get back to Hillcrest and relax. The parking permit was very welcome and also allowed us to park in many car parks in surrounding towns. Highly recommended.

Thankyou for your kind review I'm pleased you enjoyed your stay come back soon Property Owner
Caroline September 2023

“Fabulous break in a great property.”

Great location, within walking distance to the amenities of Seahouses. Comfy, clean, spacious, light and airy house with the added bonus of a secure enclosed garden for the dog! Also the parking permit for the carpark right behind the back gate was handy and allowed us to use many other carparks in the area too. I'm afraid we didn't use the kitchen much as there were too many good eating places and takeaways in town, but it did seem very well equipped! I'd certainly stay here again.

Jenny August 2023

“We’ve stayed in many Northumbria Coast & Country Cottages but this was one was disappointing.”

First impressions were not great. Parking was an issue - as parking for this property is in a public car park and as it was a bank hol weekend - we struggled. Once at the property the grass area was overgrown and evidence of previous dogs found, both general rubbish and recycling bins overflowing attracting lots of flies. The front door was extremely stiff and required some force to open and close. Previous holidaymakers had obviously also found this to be a problem as the inside handle wasn’t secure and missing screws. Throughout the week the bathroom sink started the block, shower doors very difficult to open and close and the washing machine was pouring out water. The bunk beds don’t have proper mattresses- both more like futon mattresses which is fine for a few nights but both my kids found them uncomfortable. Feedback for owners- please get single mattresses and an hair dryer! All issues reported but due to the bank holiday weekend the local agency wasn’t open until Wednesday. Even without the above issues we wouldn’t stay in this particular property again as the parking was a constant problem and being so close to Seahouses it was quite noisy. The local Northumbria coast & cottages agents were very helpful and tried to fix the washing machine & front door but it was a shame I had to call in 3x times

- Jenny, August 2023

Sorry about your disappointing stay in Seahouses but really if you are planning a stay at a coastal resort on the busiest Bank holiday of the year what can i say IT'S GOING TO BE BUSY The letting agent's have an emergency out of hours number to use at weekends and Bank holidays. Apologies for the grass not being cut before your arrival mix-up with gardeners but I believe it was cut a couple of days later.All our other guest are happy with the parking right outside the back gate plus the ability to take the disc permit to use in many of Northumberlands car parks for free.As for the bunkbed mattresses they are the ones that came with the bunks and you are the first to have an issue with them. Hair dryer has disappeared sorry about that didn't know but it's replaced now . Once again I'm sorry about your disappointing stay Property Owner
Stephanie July 2023

“We loved the location of the property but unfortunately the neighbours at number56 were very inconsiderate of others making lots of noise throughout the night partucularly loud from midnight till 230am children screaming and grown adults shouting, singing and encouraging the children to scream.”

This happened 4 out of our 7 nights waking us each night which was disapointing. The property itself was very spacious and clean but the outhouse building where the freezer and washing machine was leaking badly during the heavy rain meaning the celin was bubbling and leakong through. I feel this needs repairing as its damp and mouldy. Our stay was lovely and we would return again but felt very let down but the noisy neighbours .

- Stephanie, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback I'm sorry about the inconsiderate people staying next door some people are just like that, most of the time the owners only use it themselves.The work on the old out building in in hand so hopefully if you return it should be all done cheers Property Owner
Jill July 2023

“We enjoyed our stay at Hillcrest very much.”

It was perfectly located, just a stone’s throw from the centre of Seahouses. The only thing that was missing was a mirror in the second bedroom, as I had to keep going into the first bedroom to dry my hair. Also the tap in the kitchen needs fixing as that is dripping. We do hope to return sometime in the future.

- Jill, July 2023

Mirror and tap problem fixed thanks for your feedback pleased you enjoyed your stay Property Owner
Dennis June 2023

“The house us lovley and clean, a great place to stay.”

Maybe a little attention is needed outside .The lawn only cut on Monday but had not been cut for a while mould in the out house and the bench is dangerous probably needs removing . all in all great

Thanks for your feedback we had a mix-up with the gardeners and the out building is on the to do list Property Owner

Catherine April 2023

“Excellent location and very comfortable stay - we thoroughly enjoyed it.”

A couple of points for feedback: Annoying having the freezer outside and it felt a bit grotty. I sent my husband out there each time we needed something! For a holiday let I think it would be better having the fridge in the kitchen replaced with one with a freezer compartment at the top. More info should be provided about the parking so you know what to do on arrival. It was great having the parking permit but not clear where to park / unload from the arrival information email. Mirror needed in all bedrooms, especially for families with teenagers like us! A very comfortable property which I would recommend and we had a thoroughly enjoyable week.
