Clifton Guest House

Lights tripped twice on arrival, fan in bathroom very noisy. Lack of power points by bed. Didn’t replenish any tea, milk or toilet rolls. Windows didn’t open or close properly which meant you could hear everything on the street. Location excellent, very good shower and nice big room. Hallway smells divine.

The breakfast is fresh and good choice. Rooms are clean and nice.

Superb welcome from the chap with the shaved head (sorry not caught your name), really friendly and helpful. Lovely venue, lots of art and personality. Comfortable room. Dog friendly. Breakfast and lunch available at a cost. Parking - free- on street outside. 5 min walk to the two Marine Parks and the beach. 20 min walk to South Shields metro. 25 to the ferry.

Really cheap last minute emergency stay. Totally fine but only for an emergency. Strange they made me pay for breakfast when I made the booking as b&b. On this review it confirmed it should have been free. Oh well!

I think it was down to my chronic pain why I felt the bed was a little uncomfortable. Amazing beautiful decor and staff attentive and helpful. Amazing gluten free breakfast far too much so next time I will ask for less. One of the best gluten free breakfasts Imo highly recommend
