Seahouses Vacation Packages

Very good for the money. Comfy bed, good location for what we needed.

The pool was gorgeous. It was a bit tricky downloading the app on the phone to open the door. The app would just shut down and it took at least ten tries. Staff was wonderful. Helpful and kind. Dinner was average. I ordered a cauliflower steak which was good, but a very high price for just a large piece of cauliflower. The map to walk around the grounds was confusing and I ended up on the golf course, which didn’t make some Of the golfers happy. Bed was one of the best I’ve ever slept in.

All good & recomended to stay in :-)

It seems silly to say that a castle is old fashioned, of course it is, but it is a bit like being in an old folks home; lots of rose pink velour arm chairs. Staff were great, the man at reception sorted out a couple of wrinkles for us, and breakfast wait staff were great. The breakfast is good; dining room is small because of the architecture so you need to pre-book a dining time. Our room, with four-poster, was the most expensive option but was very small, and while some people may say a basin and loo "hidden" in a wardrobe is amusing, others of us would say it's naff. Ditto the bath/shower in a corner of the bedroom, on a raised platform. Overall, a quirky stay, possibly lots of walking to get to your room but better to stay in the castle than the newer annexe. Approach with a sense of amusement.

Very near Newcastle rail station and center of town.
