Things To Do
Local area
Newbiggin-by-the-sea is a scenic seaside town defined by it’s lovely bay with Sean Henry’s famous ‘Couple’ statue. Local wildlife such as bottlenose dolphins & sea birds are regularly spotted and there are stunning sunrises over the sea.
Local things to do
Located just one street back from the sea, you can be out of the house and on the sand within 5 minutes. Dogs are allowed on the closest part of the beach all the time and are allowed past the breakwater seasonally so your four legged friends can enjoy the sand and sea year round. We love seeing dogs of all sizes running around and getting stuck in and we have an outside shower for them to have a rinse off after the fun!
