“Megstone House immediately impresses with its genuinely warm welcome from Donna and Paul; their attentiveness shines through, particularly evident in the superb breakfasts featuring fresh fruit and the option of a hearty cooked meal. The rooms themselves are a real comfort, immaculately kept with notably comfortable beds - the four-poster options are a delightful touch. While a pleasant stroll from Seahouses' centre, the slightly removed location offers a quietude that I found rather welcome, with convenient pavement parking readily available.”
