 We welcome all our visitors from Easter to October, of course. But we don't need to have the winter all to ourselves: we don't close down ! Quite the contrary: we have our wintertime celebrations.
 We admit to its not being sunny ALL the time, but some folk obviously enjoy their sport in all weathers.
Animals need visitors too: they don't switch off at the end of October ! So beach outings and other exercise trips continue all year round.
 We can guarantee some winter deliveries on the Farne Islands. Newborn 'grey' seals are coloured by the Wardens to distinguish who's been counted from who hasn't.
 This one was beginning to explore the world in November. Boat trips from Seahouses harbour to the Farne Islands continue through the winter, but on request rather than to a preset timetable.
 Then there are the country walks, perhaps more sheltered than the beaches, certainly with less traffic than in high season.
Seahouses Golf Club course has the good fortune to be on free-draining sandy soil. Water-logging is almost unheard-of. So with ground frosts rare and snow only coming with each blue moon we can pretty well guarantee a full playing circuit whenever you feel like a game.
 Holiday homes don't have to be restricted to being "summer holiday" homes. Seahouses' houses' insulation is just as cosy as anyone elses ! Mobile homes' too !!
 We live here happily all year round of course, so all the essentials are always available: it's only a tiny minority of shops that have restricted opening times or which even close altogether 'out of season'
