I stayed 3 nights and couldn’t have asked for a more comfortable and pleasant experience. The room was spacious with comfortable bed, good choices for breakfast, and the hosts Janet & Peter couldn’t have been any nicer or accommodating. I will definitely return when back in South Shields. Thank you!

Breakfast was tasty and a great start to the day.

Luxurious little touches

I loved my stay here. The room was great, and there were luxurious little touches everywhere - fresh milk and proper coffee in the room, handmade chocolates, crisp white linen on such a comfortable bed, and the and the biggest, fluffiest towels. Breakfast was superb - everything such high quality and a great choice. Janet and Peter were friendly, professional, helpful, and gave great suggestions about where to go in the local area.

an enjoyable experience at the forest guest house

on arrival, we had a warm welcome by one of the owners. first impressions were of a warm friendly guest house. The room was clean and homely , en suite a little on the small side but did the job for the time we stayed. Breakfast was cooked fresh and to perfection in a spotless kitchen adjoined to the dining area so you could see exactly what was going on and also gave opportunity to have a conversation with the very sociable hosts peter and Janet. Location of the guest house was perfect for us, as it was just a short walk to the beach and also to a lovely park. it was close to an abundance of restaurants and bars, but not noisy. shops were just a short walk away. it was our first visit to south shields and have already talked about returning to the forest guest house. overall we had an enjoyable stay.
