I just can't fault this place. Everything works, thanks to the attentive professionalism of Simon the owner. Spotless, comfortable, great breakfast and a warm welcome. A standard for others to follow.

Stayed here for a couple of nights recently, in the single room. The room was spotless, with a comfortable bed. The bathroom was also a good size, and had both bath and shower. Plenty of wardrobe and cupboard space too. The host was very friendly and helpful. Location great too. Would definately stay here again.

Was impressed by house at first arrival, off street parking and warm welcome even although we were early. First impressions of room were excellent. Staid in king size room for four nights and our first impressions were never changed. Excellent breakfast with choices and served by friendly helpful staff. Would not hesitate to return here.

I stayed here for a week to visit the Farnes, Lindisfarne and explore the Northumberland coast. This is a spotlessly clean B&B and Simon takes care to ensure his guests are comfortable. He is really helpful about the local area and eateries. He delivers a substantial, basic English breakfast with excellent hot, crisp toast as well as the perfect fried... More

Just spent a week based in Seahouses, staying at Mainston House. Can't fault it. Simon was friendly and gave good advice, breakfasts were excellent, and the single room (with spacious bathroom) is better and bigger than most other single rooms. Mainston House is within a stone's throw of nearly all Seahouses' pubs, restaurants, etc and the boats to the islands.
