Seaham Hall – Seaham, County Durham

A Georgian country house hotel that’s rich in heritage and contemporary in style, Seaham Hall is known for its award-winning Serenity Spa. Drawing influence from Far Eastern healing and wellness rituals, holistic treatments range from hypnotherapy to Ishga seaweed baths and soothing massages. Afterwards, grab a bite at the pan-Asian restaurant Ozone or book in for a five-course seasonal British tasting menu in The Dining Room with its glittering chandeliers and portrait of one-time resident Lord Byron. At night, bed down in one of the lavish suites with super king size Hypnos beds; some come with a private hot tub and garden, whilst the split-level Ada Lovelace suite has twin slipper baths with an impressive view. The hotel, which also boasts more spacious and private bungalow suites, recently launched its dog-friendly offering, celebrating with a fabulous coronation package for furry friends. So, all in all, it’s no surprise that Seaham Hall is celebrating many awards: Small Hotel of the year at North East England Tourism Awards 2023, The Times North of England Hotel of the Year 2023 and Small Hotel of the Year in Visit England’s Awards for Excellence in 2022.
