Holiday rentals and lettings in Seattle

In Seattle innovation and nature combine to form a city that is always marching toward the future, whilst respecting the ecological boundaries of the present. Visitors can find lettings of the highest standard across the entire metropolitan area of Seattle. Choose a holiday rental overlooking one of the many shorelines such as in the beautiful North Admiral district. Or find a letting with a view over Seattle’s fabulous parks such as Volunteer Park to the east or the immense Discovery Park to the west. Or why not simply stay downtown in the heart of the action, footsteps away from multitudinous attractions for the whole family?

Seattle offers a wide variety of both houses and flats, from high-spec studios in the downtown core to spectacular, grand houses in the suburbs with 6 bedrooms or more. You can even find an urban tree house for rent and a little further afield some stunning shoreline chalets!

Seattle is the capital of America’s Pacific North-West. Spectacularly located between Lake Washington to the east and Puget Sound to the west, its waterways merge seamlessly with its urban core. The Sound is dotted with lovely islands to explore, whilst on the other side of Lake Washington the Coastal mountains rise up dramatically to a full 4,300 metres above sea level and beckon you to explore.

Seattle has a district for everyone. Capital Hill just north of downtown is lively, fast-paced, and hip, the modern waterfront to the west is a great place to explore the iconic structures in the city, Belltown to the north-west is characterized by its upscale condos, fashion boutiques, and glamorous nightlife, and in the downtown area Pioneer Square is known for its unique architecture, quirky cafes and shops and all-inclusive nightlife.

From amazing sculpture parks and playgrounds to top-tier theatre productions created for children, Seattle is bursting with attractions for the whole family. Artists at Play Playground next to Seattle Centre is a unique music-themed playground packed full of innovative equipment where kids can run free and have the time of their lives. Kids will love MoPop, a museum of contemporary culture where you can discover the influential history of Nirvana, explore science fiction, fantasy or horror films, and delve into Jimi Hendrix’s Seattle roots.

Seattle is a true sonic paradise, replete with recording studios, memorials and museums to the great music icons that have played their trade in the area. Nirvana is the city’s most famous export, and you can visit Kurt Kobain’s house in the nearby town of Aberdeen as part of a grunge pilgrimage to Seattle. And of course you can take in the current music scene at venues such as The Showbox at the Market, a Seattle legend where tomorrow’s world-famous bands are discovered today.

The 200-meter high Space Needle is an icon of the city and a must-see for visitors. From the top, spectacular views unfold over the urban area below, the Sound and Pacific Ocean to the west, and the rugged Coastal Mountains to the east.

Hop on the Seattle Monorail at the Westlake Centre. From here you can ride above the city streets, and revive your childish dreams, memories and fantasies! A fun and quick way (2 min) to get from downtown at Westlake Centre to the Seattle Centre (or vice versa).

A ride across Puget Sound aboard a ferry is a quintessential Pacific Northwest experience. Whether you are visiting an island or just hopping there and back, the views across to the islands, the urban skyline of Seattle, and Mount Rainer beyond are simply breathtaking.

Seattle’s ‘old town’ surprises with its myriad colourful old buildings in Romanesque Revival style. Tucked away behind the ivy-clad facades are iconic eateries, quirky boutiques, and tons of local history in what is Seattle’s first neighbourhood.

Dubbed the ‘Willy Wonka factory of coffee,’ Starbucks Reserve Roastery Seattle is the brand’s flagship store. It is a huge cafe come museum, filled with all sorts of coffee paraphernalia and all that is unique, artisanal, and theatrical. And the coffee isn't bad either!
