Expect all this and more at 8 Hampton Road.
The urbanised area of Cullercoats is situated on the North East coast between Tynemouth and Whitley Bay. The settlement, which was established in 1539, relied largely on fishing as well as a nearby coal mine pit to power salt pans used to export salt and coal from Cullercoats port. The community is home to distinctive architecture, featuring Victorian terraces next to the coast and surviving fishermen's houses resting along a lengthy Simpson Street. The Cullercoats Fish Lass, a well-known song by Edward Corvan about the locale, was written in 1862, and Winslow Home, an American artist, was a member of the "Cullercoats Colony." Cullercoats is now a popular vacation spot for families because of its long, sandy beach, where you can take a plunge in the water, and its arcade-lined promenade. Cullercoats has a wide selection of delectable restaurants, with traditional fish & chips as its specialty. Tynemouth and Whitley Bay are both only one mine distant from the settlement.

Great property for discovering this area . It's in a quiet residential area within 10min walk of metro and 20min walk to beach. The property had everything that was needed for a two week stay. Including a lovely log burner in the summerhouse very useful for cold /wet days. Which fortunately we only had one. I would highly recommend it for anyone wishing to stay in this area.
