However, the old clothes were full of fleas, ticks and other insects, which caused a flea plague. Later, the second-hand dealers moved to Saint-Ouen in the north of Paris to continue selling their goods, and since then it has been called the Flea Market. 💁🏻‍♀️ Visiting Tips Flea markets are mostly cash transactions, so it is best to bring small amounts of cash with you to control the cost of laundering and to make it easier for the vendors to give you change. 💋 Recommended index 🧡🧡🧡🧡🤍 #uktravel #tynemouth #tynemouthmarket #UK Attractions

My partner and I stayed at the Grand Hotel Gosforth for three nights and had the most wonderful time. The room was comfortable, and the service provided by Jay, Annie, and Rebecca was exceptional. The hotel is perfectly located in green surroundings with cozy outdoor seating, ideal for enjoying a drink. The leisure facilities were top-notch—we used the pool, sometimes even twice a day! The hotel's proximity to Gosforth Park for horse racing is unbeatable, just a five-minute walk to the racecourse. We also explored nearby coastal spots like Tynemouth, Whitley Bay, and North and South Shields, which are all conveniently close. There’s so much to enjoy right on your doorstep! We highly recommend the Grand Hotel Gosforth.

It was great being in Newcastle! We loved the biscuit factory and going to long sands beach in particular !

Newcastle, taking train to Whitley Bay. Having a sea side walking with great natural to Tynemouth. In the middle of Cullercoast and St.George church, trying ice cream in the winter. Quite a special feeling

Tynemouth is just a 30-minute metro ride from Monument station in Newcastle. You arrive at a small, pleasant station with a few bars — already setting a relaxed mood. Step outside, walk for about five minutes, and you’re on Front Street, leading straight to Tynemouth Priory and Castle. The street is lined with cafés and pubs, but nothing feels rushed or overcrowded. What I really liked was the slow, unhurried atmosphere. There weren’t many people, and most of them were drawn to the seafront. From the shore, the views of the North Sea are simply stunning. If you explore the area a bit, you’ll find plenty of viewpoints with beautiful coastal scenery. Not far away is Northumberland Park — and I was lucky to see it in winter. Snow-dusted trees, kids sledging, and a quiet, almost storybook landscape. From the park, I decided to walk towards Cullercoats Arch (not my best idea, as the day was getting colder and windier). Along the way, I passed small but elegant local houses, palm trees, and cosy little places to stop by. Overall, the town felt calm, welcoming, and safe. #travel #uk #castle #daytrip #seasideuk

Lovely day at the seaside during a weekend trip to Newcastle.

from cheshire to stockport and from stockport to sheffield and then from sheffield to newcastle and then went to Lynemouth and wow perfect place very peaceful and relaxing i loved it and the metro centre we went to was amazing couldn’t of asked for a better weekend 10/10 would definitely go 4h on a train again just to go there again i loved it so much and the beach was very pretty view to at 7 in the morning.

This trip was booked through Trip.com a new all in one app for my leisure that I have recently discovered and I am really enjoying it. Newcastle City was my first time traveling northern the UK and hopefully it won't be the last. The weather was nice not wet or cold. The people there were more friendly than South which is the first thing I could notice during my stay. #travel #solouk #solo

Newcastle Tynemouth is a small town. It's great. You can take the subway from the city to buy a day ticket for zone 1+zone 2+zone 3 for just over 5 pounds. It takes half an hour to get to Tynemouth. This is a very beautiful town. When we went there, it was about to sunset. This sunset was really one of the most beautiful sunsets I have seen since I came to the UK. In addition, the town also has a well-known fish and chips restaurant. Although the price of 11 pounds is not cheap, the quantity is large and affordable.

My favourite place in the north east! Had a nice winter trip to the beach with surprisingly good weather. Walked from Tynemouth to Whitley bay leisurely, stopping periodically to admire the views. Despite visiting between Storms Isha and Jocelyn we had a lovely time.

Summers in the UK have been getting hotter in recent years There was also a mini heat wave🥵 when I visited the UK in May this year Many people take the opportunity to go to the beach to play Located in Tynemouth, northeast of England There is very little sand on the beach 🏝️ The coastline is long Many people take advantage of the heat Drive specifically to enjoy the beach bath However for me from the subtropics Still feel the water is cold🥶 Tynemouth also has a Castle🏰 It used to be used to defend against foreign enemies It has now become a monument
