While some guests mention minor issues with cleanliness and maintenance, the overall experience is highly recommended, with many expressing a desire to return.
Most guests found the property to be clean and tidy, with particular praise for the clean towels and linen. However, a few guests noted the need for a more thorough cleaning in certain areas, such as the kitchen and bathroom, which slightly impacted the overall impression of cleanliness.
The location is consistently lauded for its convenience, with guests appreciating the proximity to bars, restaurants, public transportation, and the seafront. The central position in Tynemouth Village and the scenic views contribute to the high satisfaction with the property's location.

However, some guests noted that the property is starting to look tired and could benefit from updates and additional facilities, such as an extra toilet, to better accommodate larger groups.
The host's thoughtfulness is evident in the warm welcomes and helpfulness, as well as the provision of welcome gifts like Prosecco, which are appreciated by guests. It should be noted that such gestures, while generous, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.
Tynemouth Village Penthouse is an elegantly-styled penthouse nestled across the third and fourth floors in a historic Georgian building in the heart of the seaside town of Tynemouth, in the North East region of England. This property is perfect for anyone looking to explore this wonderful location and benefits from being within striking distance of a range of tourist attractions. Climb the steps to the third floor and find a stunning and spacious kitchen/diner with breath-taking sea views. Doors lead out from here, to a delightful balcony where you can take a cup of tea in the morning and watch the sunrise over the sea and historic Tynemouth Priory. On return from one of your adventures, you can rustle up a hearty meal in the fully-equipped kitchen and get everyone together at the dining table to tuck in and toast to a wonderful holiday with a glass of champagne which you can also take into the grand Georgian sitting room with views over the village. Up a smaller set of stairs to a half landing, you will discover a super-king-size bedroom and steps lead up again to the fourth floor which also holds two super-king-sizes bedrooms, each with zip and link features and can be separated into single beds upon request, ideal for flexible sleeping arrangements. Tynemouth was voted the best place to live in the North of England in the Sunday Times 2018 awards and is an excellent choice for a holiday due to its coastal location and easy access to three nearby beaches including Tynemouth Beach, King Edward's Bay or Long Sands Beach, all giving the opportunity for swimming, surfing, or playing a variety of beach games. For a spot of history, venture towards the ruins of Tynemouth Priory and Castle, or the ancient fortification of Arbeia in South Shields. One of the many attractions include the nationally famous Riley’s Fish Shack, and the property is also a mere stone’s throw from a number of quality restaurants and wine bars, as well as kayaking, surfing, and cycling hire being available within close proximity. Tynemouth Aquarium is perfect for your little ones, as is Tynemouth Park which has family mini golf, a soft play area and even a boating lake. Tynemouth Village Penthouse is a refreshing getaway for a couple or family looking to explore this wonderful part of the country. Note: This property can be booked with Lovatt House Apartment (Ref. 989529), together sleeping up to 10 guests, perfect for the extended family as it is directly below Tynemouth Village Penthouse.

We were literally at the centre of all local pubs, cafes and restaurants in the town with the beach only a couple of minutes walk away and the castle ruins visible from our balcony. Our view was of well tended gardens and the sea from the rear and the attractive and bustling town from the front of the apartment. We were able to travel to surrounding beaches, towns and Newcastle using the Metro tickets we bought at the beginning of the week and only used our cars for a trip further afield to Bamburgh and Northumberland National Park. All in all, a great location and ideal accommodation.

Steve is a great host very friendly and checked in to see if we needed anything. The view from the balcony is amazing. Tynemouth is a beautiful place so much to do and close to anything youâd need. We would definitely stay at Tynemouth Villiage Penthouse again.
