Forest Close is in Longbenton, on the edge of Newcastle. It's a detached house, one of four on a little private road. It sleeps eight. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms. Two are downstairs, which is handy.
It's got a 4 Star rating. That means it's comfortable, clean, and well-equipped. It's not posh, but it's got everything you need. The garden is off the living room through patio doors. It's enclosed.
Inside, it's just a good, solid house. Plenty of space for everyone to sit around. There's a washing machine, dishwasher, WiFi, and parking right outside.
You're in a quiet spot but Newcastle city centre is a very short drive away. Ten minutes, maybe. The Quayside and the bridges are worth a look. All the shops and restaurants are there if you want them.
The coast is about fifteen minutes in the car. Whitley Bay has a good long promenade for a walk. Tynemouth is a bit further, but it's nice. There's a beach, the Priory, and some decent cafes.
If you're here for racing, Gosforth Park racecourse is practically on the doorstep, about three miles.
For days out, Hadrian's Wall is under an hour's drive. Useful links for planning: English Heritage for Hadrian's Wall and Northumberland National Park.
No pets, sorry. We do provide a cot if you need one. Bedding and towels are included.
