Great guesthouse in Whitley Bay

I had the most wonderful stay at this GuestHouse and it fully exceeded my expectations. Staff (Paul) went out of his way to make my stay comfortable. Great breakfast, lovely location by the sea with short distance to the Metro and cozy room.

A really friendly welcome from check in through to departure. It was really nice to have the personal, more thoughtful touches of a smaller hotel (vs the big chains!). The room was tastefully decorated and provided a quiet, comfortable space to relax (when travelling for work). In terms of the location, the owner suggested some great areas to explore and it was easy to find one of the many ‘individual’ restaurants. Great walks along the promenade and an excellent choice of breakfast options made this a really enjoyable stay. Would have no hesitation recommending and revisiting again in the future. Thank you
