If you're here over the weekend visit tynemouth and start with the market! It's inside the original train station (now a metro station) every sat and sun from 9-3pm, and is full of artisan traders. Also visit raspberry bazarre on tynemouth's front street, green ginger church (a converted church full of food and drink places), and walk a few more metres down to the sea to see tynemouth priory and castle 🩷
