Sun, sea and serenity: Seaham Hall is the coastal escape right on our doorstep

  • Advertisement Feature

Perched on the clifftops of Durham’s beautiful Heritage Coast, Seaham Hall is more than just a luxury hotel, it’s a retreat for deep relaxation and feel-good seaside living. 

This summer, the five-star hideaway invites you to press pause, breathe in the sea air, and indulge in moments of joy, calm and connection.

Whether it’s sipping cocktails as the sun sets over the water or unwinding in the thermal spa after a coastal walk, everything at Seaham Hall is designed to help you slow down and reconnect – with nature, with yourself, and with the people you love.

Soak up a Sunset Spa experience

As golden hour hits the coastline, Serenity Sunsets begins. This special twilight spa event on Sunday 24th August offers five hours of spa access, a welcome cocktail, a curated omakase menu at the hotel’s new restaurant Geko, and DJ-led chillout vibes as dusk falls.

With flickering lights in the Spa Garden and the distant sound of waves, this is the perfect blend of seaside soul and spa indulgence. £119pp – and worth every second.

The perfect escape

What makes Seaham Hall truly special is its setting. Just moments from the beach and surrounded by windswept clifftop trails, this is the kind of place where you feel like you’ve escaped — without having to go far. Whether you start your day with a barefoot stroll by the sea or a slow coffee in the sunlit gardens, everything about the experience is rooted in nature, stillness and space to breathe.

Every detail — from the outdoor hot tubs overlooking the sea to the spa scents drifting through the halls — is designed to help you switch off and settle in.

With the perfect balance between luxury and relaxation, one minute you’re wrapped in a robe heading for the steam room, and the next you’re dressed for dinner and sipping a glass of English sparkling wine under festoon lights. Relaxed, but elevated.
