One of the beautiful scene in UK. Cold in winter so please bring a coat with you. Dogs will like to run freely in this place. Waves and tides are actively dancing. Restaurants and couples of car parks nearby. Excellent choice for spending a weekend with your friends or family here. Lastly, I love the seat which put there very much, it was well designed and be put at some perfect positions, I will draw something or read few pages on the seat in front of the sea and make friends with the birds.
Beautiful ruins at a spectacular beach cliff at the mouth of the Tyne river. Also good views from the Newcastle - Amsterdam ferry. Only remark: why allow the ice cream truck to park tight in front of the ruins, spoiling the views and pictures.
Thanks for My CADW Membership status I had a chance to enter for FREE even despite just 30mins left before closing time! Godbless Staff Member who let me in! . ...and You know what? This half an hour was definitely enough to -speedy - tbh explore it! Beautiful set up, on the edge of cliff site brings me some kind of associations with Whitby Abbey! Great piece of history but pity that not much left. This military stuff also ruins a bit of atmosphere but understand the importance of it. Still worth it but I would feel probably ripped off if have to pay full price!
An old priory mostly in its ruins. The site is managed by English Heritage and free for the members while non members will have to pay. Vast area and very good sea view. It has a stunning view of the Tynemouth lighthouse. That which is still in its original position will be the chapel in the priory. The interior of the chapel reminded me of something I saw in St Giles cathedral in Edinburgh.
Another place in the North East steeped in history. A scenic ally located Priory and fortified headland. Excellent storyboards laid out to describe the events. Great views of the sea and Tyne estuary. From ancient to modern are encapsulated within its walls. No parking but there is close by No cafe so take a picnic
Great Castle and Priory ruins to wander around Including WW2 gun areas and buildings.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Timed our visit to coincide with the knights tournament and so glad we did! The knights certainly went for it and were great entertainment! The priory is located close to the high street which offers plenty of parking and opportunities for refreshmentsVisited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Very interesting priory ruins and WW2 fortifications. Stunning views across the mouth of the Tyne and Tynemouth beaches.
Beautiful scenery when the sun is out! Didn't go into the castle, though.Visited onWeekday
Great priory and castle grounds to visit. There is so much to see here; you can easily spend a few hours here. Tynemouth sits on the coast and the views are amazing. The priory was protected by the castle walls, towers and gatehouse. After the monastery was suppressed in the reign of Henry VIII 1509–47, Tynemouth headland became a coastal fortress and remained so until 1956, because of its strategic position at the mouth of the river Tyne.
