Craster House Reviews

AMAZING!! We had the most wonderful 2 days staying in Seahouses in Craster House . The house is beautiful & well positioned to enjoy all that Seahouses offers. We stayed as a family of 8 6 adults & 2 children & it was perfect. The house is finished to a very high standard and has everything you need, it even has dressing gowns. Theres a little games cupboard which our granddaughter loved. There was a gorgeous little hamper provided by the owners upon arrival which was a lovely little touch thank you The only downside was we werent there for a week! We would highly recommend this accommodation 1010

Jacqueline

Craster House was perfect. The listing and photos were all accurate, there were lots of unexpected touches such as dressing gowns, toiletries, umbrellas, also everything you could need or want in a self catering holiday home. Fantastic welcome basket too. Its a great base and location for exploring not only Seahouses but Northumberland in general. It was a nice touch of luxury to celebrate our golden wedding anniversary, champagne flutes included there too. Definitely recommend, lovely stay.

Rebecca

We had a fantastic weekend. The weather helped. The house was perfect for us. Plenty of bathrooms, bedrooms and the kitchen dinner was great for family games and relaxing evenings. It was a great location to access the coastal paths and great for walking into town for evening meals or to the shops. Perfect for afternoon rock pooling and boat trips.

Deborah

This is a great little house for a short visit to the coast, nice decor, well equipped and comfortable. Convenient to walk to town but nice and peaceful. I think it would be too full with 8 adults but it was perfect for a family of 4 and the dog.

Property was lovely nice clean nicely set out and perfect position! Sent a photo to Sykes soon as we arrived about bad burn mark on carpet in master bedroom! Not a problem but wanted you to be aware it was already there thanks David

Lovely week at Craster House Seahouses. Beautiful property with a lot of thought for additional touches to make your stay more comfortable. Great welcome hamper, coffee machine, luxury towels, toiletries and everything to such a high standard. Location perfect for walking to local beaches, pubs, restaurants and shops. Would love to go back and stay again.

Bethany

AMAZING! We went away as a family of 7 including a one year old and plus two pooches! and this house was just perfect. In a great location, just above the beach for the dogs. The dog wash really helped after a long walk on the beach and the layout was perfect for what we needed. We really appreciated the welcome hamper which included dog treats!! and there was even hats and umberellas there for us to use throughout our stay! I would totally recommend this place to anyone, especially if you're going as a family or group of friends. Perfect 10 out of 10!!!!

Just returned from a wonderful stay at Craster House. The place is immaculate, we can't praise it highly enough. In a quiet corner just off the harbour it has a Seaview, it's own parking spot and definitely all mod cons. Wouldn't hesitate to return.

We had a fantastic weekend stay up at Craster House. The home the Wilson family have is stunning and I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a luxury stay with the finest attention to detail and access to the local area.

Rachel

What a great house! Everything was immaculate and the tiniest little detail was not left unmissed! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect too, we would definitely recommend!

We had a lovely stay at craster house, perfect location in centre of town. Spacious, comfortable rooms with lovely decor and nice finishing touches. The downstairs washroom wasnt ready which would have been handy for the dog and to rinse sandy clothes. The kids loved the games which were provided. Would highly recommend .
