Sightseeing

North Tyneside packs in more attractions than you might expect. The stunning coastline offers miles of beaches, from the popular Longsands Beach in Tynemouth (4.5/5 on TripAdvisor) to the quieter Cullercoats Bay.

Tynemouth Priory and Castle (NE30 4BZ, open 10am-5pm Apr-Oct, 10am-4pm Nov-Mar) stands on a rocky headland overlooking the North Sea. English Heritage maintains this 7th-century monastery and 14th-century fortress, which scores 4.5/5 on TripAdvisor.

St. Mary's Lighthouse (NE26 4RS) sits on its own island connected to the mainland by a causeway. The lighthouse is open 10am-5pm during summer months and offers fantastic views from the top. Visitors rate it 4.5/5 on TripAdvisor.

For rainy days, head to Tynemouth Aquarium (NE30 4JF) where you'll find sharks, seals and more exotic creatures. Open daily 10am-5pm, it scores a solid 4/5 on TripAdvisor and keeps kids entertained for hours.

Pet Friendly

Dogs love North Tyneside! Many of our hot tub cottages welcome four-legged guests, often providing dog beds, bowls and treats. Just check the specific cottage details before booking.

The beaches have seasonal restrictions, but from October to April, dogs can run free on most stretches. Longsands Beach has designated dog-friendly zones year-round, perfect for morning walks before breakfast.

The Beehive pub in Earsdon (NE25 9JU) welcomes dogs inside and serves excellent Sunday roasts. The Kittiwake in Whitley Bay (NE26 1BG) also allows dogs in the bar area and offers water bowls.

I recommend bringing towels specifically for your dog - sandy paws and hot tubs don't mix well! Many cottages have enclosed gardens where dogs can play safely while you enjoy your hot tub.
