The Fat Puffin

Seahouses remains one of the north-east coast's working harbours, with fishing boats still berthed alongside leisure craft and tour operators. From The Fat Puffin, you can walk to the water's edge in minutes, explore the RNLI heritage and the lime kilns, or book a boat to the Farne Islands to see seals, seabirds and the Longstone Lighthouse. The village itself has pubs, restaurants and fish and chip shops strung along the front, and the beaches either side are accessible on foot or a short drive away.

The Fat Puffin is a one-bedroom duplex sleeping two. Downstairs is the bedroom with a king bed and a shower room; upstairs, a living room with a Smart TV and a kitchen-diner with an electric hob, oven and microwave. Electricity, heating, wifi, bed linen and towels are included. There is private parking for one car. Dogs stay free and come with a welcome pack to settle them in; smoking is not permitted.

The property suits couples or friends wanting easy access to the harbour, the islands and the wider Northumberland coast without fuss.
