XO Private - The Luxury Travel Collection
The finest online directory for the discerning traveller

Perched on the edge of the North Sea and surrounded by some of the wildest, most beautiful countryside in the Northeast England, Seaham Hall and the Serenity Spa is a true destination getaway for discerning travellers looking for style alongside a subtle kind of indulgence.

Originally built in 1791, the hotel interior combines contemporary chic with the classic architecture of its historic noble past. Rooms are uncluttered, featuring sconce lighting on expansive walls, some with limestone fireplaces and admiring views of the surrounding coasts or forests.

Oriental in design and inspired by Feng Shui, the Serenity Spa nestles into the natural hillside and is linked to the hotel by a magical underground walkway so that guests need not go outside. Award–winning restaurant serves modern European specialties in a contemporary and chic environment accompanied by a vaulted cellars house where the hotel’s sommelier can advise guests on an eclectic collection of fine and unusual wines.
