Lighthouse Lodge

Located right in the heart of Tynemouth, this apartment is in a fab spot. The colourful rooms and comfortable furnishings offer a warm welcome after a bracing beach walk. And the kitchen is handy if you want to cook at home (be sure not to miss seaside fish and chips too). The living area might be a tad cosy if seven of you are staying, and there are a fair few stairs both inside and out. But it’s a great base for exploring the Northumberland coast or visiting Newcastle.

Home truths:
*This home is set over four floors, so you'll need to be able to climb stairs here.
*Access to the apartment is via an external staircase which is unlit, so take extra care after dark.
*This apartment is above a restaurant, so you may hear some noise from below from time to time.
*One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.
*One of the bedrooms has a bunk bed that sleeps two on the bottom bunk and one on the top. It's probably best suited to children or teenagers.
*Your host can provide a parking permit for one vehicle, which allows free on-street parking in Tynemouth's TM1 zone.
*Your host provides a starter supply of toilet paper and dishwasher tablets, but you might want to bring your own to top this up. The nearest supermarket for stocking up is a three-minute walk away.
