- SEAHOUSES | Full tour of Seahouses Northumberland from seafront to beach and harbour!
We take the Gimbal Walk TV cameras to Seahouses in North East England for a look around this popular seaside holiday town and working fishing port.
Seahouses is a large village on the North Northumberland coast in England. It is about 20 kilometres north of Alnwick, within the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
A long history of fishing makes the popular village of Seahouses both fascinating and beautiful. Experience local wildlife and gorgeous beaches, enjoy fresh fish and chips and crazy golf, and take a scenic walk along the harbour
This colourful fishing village has a bustling harbour, an Aladdin’s Cave of shops, and plenty of ways to see the local wildlife. Seahouses’ fishing past lives on at Swallow Fish, who have been smoking on site since 1843.
Visitors are also welcome at The Fisherman’s Kitchen, where historic fishing memorabilia and curios are displayed alongside the local catch-of-the-day.
As well as its fishing, Seahouses is also known for its history surrounding iconic Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) figure Grace Darling. She and her father took a rowing boat out to sea from Seahouses and managed to save many people after the Forfarshire fishing boat crashed into rocks. An RNLI lifeboat at Seahouses bears the name Grace Darling in her honour.
Roam the beaches for spectacular views of Bamburgh Castle and Holy Island, take your newly-purchased fishing nets, and buckets and spades to go rock pooling. You can go body boarding in the sea, and explore the sand dunes.
With the chance to see thousands of seabirds and seals, and to experience the Farne Islands and Longstone Lighthouse, Billy Shiel and Serenity boat trips offer one of the UK’s top wildlife experiences. If wildlife isn’t your thing, then you can enjoy a pint and fresh fish and chips at a local restaurant - you can even see the stunning Bamburgh Castle from the Bamburgh Castle Inn.
Whether you’d like to see Holy Island from afar, putt away at crazy golf, or visit the pristine coastline, there’s always something to enjoy at Seahouses
Seahouses lies on the Northumberland coast about 15 miles North-East of Alnwick between the beautiful Villages of Beadnell and Bamburgh. This holiday Town and Fishing Port did not exist until 1889 when the harbour was built in order to improve the local fishing and lime industries.
Seahouses is known to many as 'The Gateway to the Farne Islands' and is a very popular place with both locals and visitors. It is probably the most popular holiday resort on the Coast due to it's excellent amenities and attracts huge numbers of visitors throughout the year.
The Town itself centres on it's harbour, where you will find fishing boats mixed with pleasure boats taking hordes of visitors over to the Farne Islands. The harbour is also known as 'North Sunderland Harbour' and if you notice on Google Maps North Sunderland actually shows as the name of the Town
Seahouses is a seaside Fishing Town through and through. It is however, perhaps most famous for being the 'Gateway to the Farne Islands' and rightly so. Visiting the Farne Islands is a must while you are in the area, assuming you don't get easily sea sick!
There are also plenty of other things to do from a base in Seahouses, from watersports and horse riding on one of the beautiful wide sandy beaches to Fishing, golf (including crazy golf!) and bird watching

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful…I think CZcams took us off your channel. Now we are back with you! Thanks!!!!!!!❤
Excellent
Welcome back! ❤️
Holidaying in seahouses in Sept 24 for the first time….so finding this video is fantastic….we can see exactly what we will be experiencing….so excited…so thank you….I last holidayed in Northumberland with my school 45 years ago lol….and after watching Robson Greens Northumberland series….i just wanted to come back 😊😊😊
You will thorougly enjoy, Seahouses is a magical place,i,m going on the 16th August,after a gap of 20years.First stop will be the Olde Ship Inn where the walls and ceiling are festooned wth nautical artefacts from Ships bells.binnacles port and starboard lights taelescopes compasses e.t.c!😀😀😀
@@beachcomberbloke462 thank you, will definitely call in there then…have a great time 😊
Have stayed there a few times at the campsite. Lovely place. Thank you.
You have certainly whetted my appetite for my forthcoming holiday.I have been many times in the past,last time 20YRS ago, so looking forward to the boat trips especially Lindisfarne which i,ve only driven to before.😀❤
I went to Seahorses about 2 yes ago, I'm ashamed to say I wasn't brave enough to go to see the seals, it was a bit rough and I was travelling alone. Amazing crab sandwiches! I was based Alnwick but loved the area and did quite a bit of exploring. So much history to see and find out about.
We have been holidaying at seahouses for the past 9 years and will continue to. It's a fantastic part of the world including Alnwick, Bamburgh, Holy Island to name a few. Great people great places to eat at and visit.👍
Another great & fantastic video of SEAHOUSES | Full tour of Seahouses Northumberland from seafront to beach and harbour! specially the drone shots!.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Many thanks!
Hi.Brought back happy memories being at Sea Houses years ago, went on boat trip to see the birds.. Remember the fish & chip shop at sea houses & shops...We was staying in Beadnell so was a nice treat to go exploring..Thank you.☕👍
Stunning. We've been here for a couple of years now and we love it. We took our dog Harley on the Farne island cruise, he loved it and we loved the seals and puffins. We normally base in Alnwick but we go all over, the Northumberland coast is spectacular. Thanks for sharing
Happy memories of Seahouses some 15 years ago time really does fly. Our dogs loved it there. Few nice shops & lovely Fish n chips. Lovely relaxing holiday. Thanks for bringing memories flooding back.
You’re welcome - lovely little place
I had grandparents that used live in seahouses place holds many memories for me
Such a lovely place
Fond memories of visits to Seahouses, could never tire of going there. Steak Pie Dinner in the Olde Ship Inn...seeing the RNLI in action (had to get out of the way of the crew belting down the road to the Lifeboat Station!) And Fish and Chips while sitting on the benches overlooking to harbour towards the Farne Islands on a clear day...heaven..
There is something so heartwarming about these videos..I think its the nice little comments during the videos that does it.
Thank you so much!
More on the way!
this gave me chills im crying havent been to seahouses in years and its mad to me to see how much its changed i have the best memories of seahouses.
Such a lovely place
Holidayed here every year as a child in the 60s. A few changes, but the overall character has stayed. Thank you for posting this.
You’re welcome
Lots more on my channel too ❤️
i have,nt been to seahouses for a few years. but always remember one sunny morning ,walking on the beach from seahouses up to bamburgh & back.absolutely lovely
Perfect - lovely place. I bet it's great in summer!
The best fish and chips I've ever had was in Seahouses. Absolutely beautiful place
Agreed
Well I used to go to Seahouses every year as a child and young adult It's completely changed .
Do you think so ?
Love Seahouses we used to go regular as we had a caravan in Belford sadly due to health reasons we don't visit hopefully in not too distant future we will go back Scenery is beautiful fish and chips second to none and the people are so friendly
oooooh FIRST !! Hi Mr Walk 😁 Once again a splendid tour, but I would defo not want to be in those caravans or houses that close to the cliff !! I would lie awake at night too frightened that the cliff would crumble to the sea 😠
Some splendid and lovely shots from the drone, this is a good way to find a parking space !! ha ha !! Hope you enjoyed your Fish, Chips and a warm coffee after your walk. Thanks for the trip 👍
Keep em coming ✔💯
After Bamburgh castle visit(which I can't find the video on the castle in your list) we took my son who was visiting me whilst I lived in England, to Seahorses. He fell in love with it. He declared that this was his favorite place to visit. This is after taking him to Scotland, York, Scarborough, London, etc this was the best! It is a lovely village, and wish I had spent more time there. Your trainers are looking pretty good by the way! ;)
Thanks for the video, it brings back happy memories for me I lived in Seahouses for 12 years, from 9yrs till I was 21, spent many hours down the harbour watching the boats bringing in their catches, that was back in the 70s, when there still was a fishing fleet. We still come back on holiday occasionally. Look forward to watching your Bamburgh video.
Enjoyed the video. I grew up locally and can only remember going there once as a kid and later for a short visit on my return from overseas. Lovely place that you don't realise you have on your doorstep until you move away.
So true
Love this place me and my wife stay here every year in Seafield caravan park and the old ship Inn beer garden is superb to have pint in with a great views and a relaxing atmosphere
OH yes - heaven!!
I’ve never heard of this place before. It looked a nice place for fish, chips and a pint. The sure did look cold though 🥶 Keep on walking 😀
It was a bit cold but fun!
It's warm in the summer through September
Rekindled old memories of the now gone Viking bar and the weekends spent tipsy in a caravan.
Happy times! ❤️
I was there over christmas and new year ...stayed in felton ..love sea houses and Bamburugh and almouth ...great place to be .
True!
Love nipping down the road to Seahouses with my kids when I visit my Uncle, the Methodist Church you went past my Aunt and Uncle got married there, he was actually down there the other week visiting my Aunts grave and commented alot of tourists were in Seahouses which is strange at this time of year as its quite unforgiving weather wise up that end of Northumberland in winter time. Spittal Beach is a lovely beach to visit if youre vising around Berwick upon Tweed area and Alnwick is always a good trip especially if youre a Harry Potter buff seeing the Castle. I highly recommend Coxons Ice Cream place in Seahouses, its the place painted blue by the roundabout near the tourist information place.
Called at Seahouses some 20 years ago for 1 night on our way to Berwick fell in love with the place just got back from 3 night stay at bambough Castle Hotel use to stay at mables westside House rip mable1 in a million happy times staying there
Perfect!
Nice walk, thank you. Seahouses is a nice little place, I’ve enjoyed looking at the model boats in the shop window too!
Thanks for watching Gordon - I really do appreciate it!
Thank you for this full tour of Seahouses and sound of the sea and seagulls . Its brought back Happy memories of our frequent visits and stay . I didn't realize how big Seahouses was.🙂
Our pleasure!
This was a perfect video for me. I’m going to be taking a small group tour to Seahouses in May 2025 and your video was so helpful! Thank you!
Thank you 🙏
never heard of it until now. nice to see.
It's really nice - will go back in Summer
I came across your video I am doing a pilgrimage walk next year in Northumberland and thanks to your video I may visit this place.
Thank you - can recommend!
The lovely north sea miss it so much I'm originally from Sunderland but live in Somerset for nearly 40 years
Visited Seahouses while staying a couple of days in Berwick, parked by the lifeboat station, no double yellow lines then, and walked along the long pier, a lovely harbour.
Agreed / lovely place
My grandparents used live in seahorses my granddad was the bank manger at Barclays Bank many years ago seeing this video come up on my feed was a emotionally trip down memory road
Wow that was beautiful. Thank you the sounds was si nice to
Thank you so much
Love the drone shots.
Thanks - I'm new to it so not very good at flying it yet!

Thanks for the video - we're going there tomorrow. Nice video with great captioning, nice and informative.
Thank you - have a lovely time!
Wrap up warm!
Thanks for another great informative video just what I needed 😀. Looks a great little seaside place. Keep on walking 👍👍🚶🏻♂️🚶🏻♂️
You’re welcome 😊 This weekend's videos coming up are my best ever - you will like the Edinburgh one I think!
Great day to do these walks on my birthday.
Happy birthday!
Spent many a happy day here fishing and sometimes visiting Holy Island and the Farnes, as a student I worked in Bamburgh, happy days ! PS Kippers are synonymous with Craster not far from Seahouses.
We love Seahouses, been a few times. We were there a couple of years ago with our dog whos since passed away 😢💔 Great dog friendly place. Boat trips to Farne Islands was brilliant. The hook fish and chip shop used to be called pinnacles. Delicious fish and chips, hopefully they still are.
Seahouses has a large golf club on the road to Beadnell Bay, another lovely place but not much there but still worth a visit if in that neck of woods again.
Great video 👍
Thanks for this walk down memory lane 😀
Lovely village I'll be there in June we come here every year great little place to visit
True!
Lovely thanks .
Thank you too!
ive only been to seahouses once that was 1975 and while i was there i had some kippers and thay were delishes and cheap, but now i here you need a large bank account to buy kippers now in seahouses.
Great to see plenty of seats and handrails for safety..
Thank you. It's lucky that this came up on my screen. I have been thinking about visiting Northumberland. Now I have seen this I know this will be my next holiday. ilona
Ah fab!
More Northumberland videos on my channel too!
Great fish restaurants as well!
Thanks for uploading.
You’re welcome!
Oh thanks for this walk round this lovely seaside place! Never heard of it before, and it seems its not too far from Scottish border. Also very near to Bamburgh and was pleased you said you have a vid of the castle. Went on trip there once but it was just closing!! ☹️. So will watch! You must have done a fair few miles with these trips. Thanks lots! 🙏
You’re welcome 😊
The best of them all.
So true
Did Beadnell Bay last July sadly missed Seahouses great video.I probably do the Coastal path again this summer. Beautiful part of UK to visit for someone from London area
Definitely - my first time this! Loved it
Excellent video. I've only been to sea houses once but didn't fully explore it. It's now on my must do again list.
That’s the best feedback Colin thank you!
Had never heard of Seahouses before - on my next UK trip list!
Thanks for a preview!
Our pleasure!
Really enjoyed this walk.
I’m recovering from a broken wrist.
Oh no! Hope it’s not painful now?
top video again mate, well done
Thank you so much ❤️
When the sun is out bet it's glorious here ,A good video well done.😍😍
Thank you x
I enjoyed this video. I want to visit again and follow your route
❤️❤️❤️
Another great video it's nice to c your drone footage at the end it looks like a fairly big village
Thanks Mick - I will try and fly the drone whenever I get the chance
It’s good to fly ✈️
Used to live in Northgate and we went to seahouses, Bamburgh a lot, but it was over 50 years ago and there was not much at seahouses then especially on Sunday.
I use to go here every year on Holiday
Nice! Lovely little place
Another great video.
Thanks again!
Love walk great views just last walk the waterfront at Burnham on crouch in Essex a sailing area but very quiet at the moment soon won't be once it gets to March...
Great bit of filming using your gimbal. They make all the difference when it comes to smooth panning shots. Great stuff!
Yes it stops my shaky hands!
Oh my goodness my French landlady took me there in 1970,I'm from NZ.
Amazing! Bet it’s not changed much too!
A lovely walk and views thank you, but hey, what a ghost town. Not surprising when there are double yellow lines nearly everywhere you look! No doubt that is to force everyone into paid car parks.
I will go back in summer when people are out and about
Find all the ship inns along the Northumberland coast ;-)
That sounds like my kind of challenge! 🤣
White trainers, i wore those as bopping shoes in 1959, a Bob for a bop.
Wish they were still that now! Bit more expensive these days Tony!
I love Seahouses and it is glorious in the sun, especially the beach walk to Bamburgh where I saw dolphins close to the beach. Did Hook's fish and chips used to be Pinnacles?
Good question - I’m not sure!
@@GimbalWalkTV It was Pinnacles in Aug 2020
Your walks are all very nice, but it would be nice to have some background music.
When I had background music on I got screamed and shouted at by people who wanted to hear the natural sounds!
This came up whilst I am waiting for me fish and chips to come out of the oven , what better way to spend the time before theyre done ? Loving me some Seahouses , not been for a few years need to organise a trip up . Of to Whitby next for another of your vlogs , another place not been to in awhile thank you for the vlogs .
Fab thank you David - Whitby is one of my favourite places!
Enjoy your fish and chips!!
Your remark about kippers not so sure about that as I believe they were first smoked in arbroath scotland.
Oh controversy then!! I got my info from google so I wonder which is correct - I am going to have to do some more digging on that one!
What you don't eat kippers get to Craster, they stillsmoke them there.
Don’t really eat them but would try em!
Strippers have been going a lot longer than the 1800s.
😮😮😮😮😮
@@GimbalWalkTV oops, sorry, I misread kippers.
This was filmed in January and is very misleading. As soon as the weather gets friendlier and warmer, Seahouse transforms. If you don't mind commercialism traffic and tons of tourist's then that's OK, but I don't, so I was hardly an hour there for a quick nosey, then gone again. It was mid April when I visited.
Thanks for watching!
What a strange atmosphere. Not one person passed on the film seemed to make any eye contact, give a wave or even spoke. Certainly doesn't give the impression of being a very friendly place to visit.
Most places I film are like this at the moment Michael - think it’s just people with a lot on their mind
@@GimbalWalkTV Please don't take my comments as any reflection on your work in taking and posting this film. I know that there's a lot of hard work and commitment involved, and without people like you the world would be a poorer place. And yes. I take your point that people are indeed pre-occupied and have lots on their mind. We certainly are in strange times.
Thank you for the work that you do.
@@michaelinnes971 No problem - don't worry I didn't take it as a criticism!
You make a valid point about people currently
Also - dont forget I'm six foot three and massive build so people tend to avoid catching eye contact with me as I head towards them!
Lincoln pleas
Definitely doing there!
Is there any parking
Yes plenty
Has the cat got your tongue?
Just a bit 🤣
If you don't give a price RANGE go away!
😮
Sorry but not my sort of place looks very grey and miserable to me when you have visited lovely fishing villages in Cornwall there is no comparison.
Well this is January - it all looks drab when shops and trips are shut up for Winter. Yes Cornwall is glorious and rugged but it's nice to see something different !
I'll go back and film it again in Summer to show you why it's so popular!
Everywhere looks miserable when there is no sun so unless you have been there how would you know.😂😂
