RecommendedSpa hotel where families stay in the penthouse or luxury lodges

Seaham Hall

Seaham, County Durham

A spa hotel first and foremost, so it works best if you book one of the private lodges and treat it as a luxurious base. Children get dedicated pool slots and the beach below is famous for sea glass, which keeps little treasure-hunters busy for hours. Durham and Beamish are close for a bigger day out.

Days out nearby

  • Castle / historic · nearby attraction

    An open-air museum where trams and buses carry families between a 1900s town, a pit village, a farm and 1950s streets. Children can visit an old schoolroom, buy sweets the old way and see steam engines working.

  • The Alnwick Garden ↗

    ~51 miles · ~1 hr

    Nature / outdoors · ideal day trip

    A spectacular cascading water garden children can splash beside, a deliciously creepy Poison Garden tour for older kids and one of the world's largest treehouses for lunch among the branches.

  • Alnwick Castle ↗

    ~51 miles · ~1 hr

    Castle / historic · ideal day trip

    A lived-in castle children may recognise from the films, where they can take broomstick training on the lawn, dress up and try medieval crafts in Knights' Quest. Pairs perfectly with the gardens next door.
