Lovely view. Nice quiet location. No paths to walk the dogs on.....a bit dangerous with it being a busy road. The kitchen, bedrooms & bathrooms would be much better with a little updating.

Seabank was a very comfortable, spacious house. It was very well equipped, and it felt like home. The view over the sea was outstanding.

We had a wonderful peaceful holiday and Seabank. The house was fantastic, with all amenities available including a coffee machine :) the gardens were beautiful and views to die for - just sitting looking out to sea all day was so wonderful - wish i could retire and live there. Dogs are now moping about as they wish they were back there again too. We also ate out twice at the **** Inn just down the road, fantastic food and again beautiful views and very reasonably priced. Thank you for providing us with you wonderful home.
