September is one of our favourite months, namely because both of our birthdays are in September which means a LOT of foodie indulgence.
We decided to treat ourselves by booking dinner and a room at Seaham Hall Hotel and Spa (good to ourselves, eh?). Upon arrival you’re met with a view of the infamous Vortex, which really sets the tone for the whole stay – Seaham is the epitome of luxury and elegance. The staff were absolutely amazing and after dropping our things in our room we headed off to explore the spa (may have found the bar on the way too). Again, the staff could not have been more helpful, and if you’re after a relaxing spa break then YOU NEED TO VISIT THIS PLACE. We won’t go into detail about the spa as this is a foodie blog but suffice to say – it was LUSH. Like seriously, wow.
After a quick glass of prosecco in the lounge, we were lead through to Seaham’s luxuriously decorated Dining Room restaurant. As we were being indulgent, we went for the three courses. We started with beef tartare and Whitby crab, followed by North Sea Halibut and Thickelby duck with blackcurrant. The puds were to die for too – amazing salted caramel tart with raspberries and almonds and the richest chocolate fondant ever. Check out the insta for more pics (we took an embarrassing amount).
If you fancy a luxury escape then we would 10/10 recommend. Absolutely can not fault Seaham Hall, easily the best hotel we’ve ever stayed in and the food was just perfect. As always, we love hearing your stories too so comment or hit us up on Instagram.
