Leisure
Perched on the edge of the North Sea and surrounded by some of the wildest, most beautiful countryside in the land. Seaham Hall is just three hours from London by train, and a good deal less if you fly. (We’re close to two international airports: Newcastle and Teesside.)
Major roads make easy work of reaching the landmarks, treasure houses and natural wonders of northern England and Scotland.
To the north, Scotland’s two great cities, Edinburgh and Glasgow are within easy striking distance, as is York to the south (an hour’s drive away). Hadrian’s Wall is even closer and Durham, with its Norman cathedral, a world heritage site, is only twenty minutes away.
A short drive north takes you to Newcastle, legendary for its nightlife, clubs and restaurants and voted one of the top ten most fun destinations in the world. Why not visit our restaurants Treacle Moon and Fisherman’s Lodge when you’re in town?
To the west is the Lake District National Park. Its jaw-dropping mountain scenery has inspired both reams of poetry as well as that primal urge to lace up your boots and walk. Who knows? You may want to investigate The Samling, our country retreat by Lake Windermere, while you're there.
