Description

Welcome to Shell Seekers Cottage, Runswick Bay

For those of you who are familiar with Runswick Bay, you may recall or perhaps have even stayed at the holiday home which used to sit on the land where Shell Seekers has been built.

The owners of Red House as it was known, had holidayed in Sandsend for many years but had friends in Runswick and so jumped at the chance to purchase their own piece of the village over 30 years ago. Sadly though, Red House met with its demise in 2014 where structural engineers advised that the house needed to be rebuilt due to subsidence.

The owners embarked upon rebuilding a new house, which was to be heavily engineered to ensure future stability and so here came "Shell Seekers". With the build completed in 2022, this home is available again for holiday lets. Shell Seekers offers accommodation for up to 8 people and welcomes 2 well behaved dogs.

Boasting a king bedroom with large ensuite and Juliette balcony, a double bedroom with shower ensuite, a bunk bedroom, a twin bedroom, a house bathroom, boot room / utility with downstairs "loo", large cosy lounge, open plan kitchen / dining space leading to a superb balcony with sea views - Shell Seekers Cottage easily caters for family gatherings or groups wishing to get away.

Shell Seekers has the added benefit of one private parking space (please note the access to this car park space requires skilled driving as the road is very narrow and extremely steep) If you are unable to park outside the house, there is further parking in the Pay & Display car park within the village. Daily charges apply

Please see the Features section for more details.

    There is parking at the house for one medium sized car. We do not allow EV charging at this cottage  - it invalidates our insurance - there is an official charging point located at the top of the bank. Additional cars must use the Pay & Display car park for which there is a daily charge. Please note that the road to the cottage is extremely narrow and not for drivers who are not confident on the roads. A good level of reversing and skill required! (We have no alternative parking if you are unable to park outside the cottage - you must use the Pay & Display car park, daily charges apply)
