Guests say
Seal Bay is frequently praised for its spaciousness, comfort, and stunning views, particularly of Budle Bay and Bamburgh Castle. Guests appreciate the property's convenience for local attractions and its suitability for birdwatching and stargazing. While some guests encountered issues with mobile reception and a lack of nearby amenities, the majority found the apartment to be a comfortable and well-equipped base for exploring Northumberland.
Most guests found the apartment to be spotlessly clean and comfortable. However, one guest reported confusion over the presentation of fresh bedding and towels, which slightly impacts the overall impression of cleanliness.
The location is highly praised for its amazing views and proximity to local sights. However, some guests were disappointed with the distance to the nearest pub and the misleading description of the nearby beach.
Guests generally regard the property as comfortable, with special mentions of the beds and hot water supply. A few guests, however, noted a dark living room and inadequate seating as detractors from the overall comfort.
While the property is described as well-equipped, some guests experienced issues with mobile phone reception and a lack of security lighting. There were also comments about the need for improvements to enhance convenience and enjoyment.
The mention of a generous welcome pack suggests thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not guaranteed and there is only one mention, this score reflects the limited information available.
