The hotel is great and the location is good.The town and beach front are both within easy walking distance. The decor is really nice and the breakfast was amazing. Micheal is a superb host and gave us some great info about local places to eat and drink and about the fantastic Craft fair in Tynemouth which was really helpful. We were on the top floor of the holel and the room was extremely warm even with the windows open and using the electric fan which was in the wardrobe. Tea and coffee making facilities were supplied and there was also a microwave in the room.Overall we had a great stay for a couple of nights.

Great stay. Superb breakfast. Parking a little difficult. A handrail on one side for the four wide steps down to the bathroom would be a nice improvement. Other than that it was all excellent.
