In our village shop we find that customers are surprised by the wide range of products we stock, including gifts for occasions, hats & scarves, gloves, bags, purses, jewellery, perfumes, candles and diffusers together with home decor accessories. However, we also stock some interesting small furniture items and significant pieces of work from local artists and crafts people. Everything in our shop is NOT available online, but we will continue to add more products to the online store as we go, so keep checking in! Tynemouth was recently voted as the best place to live in the North East of England (https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/tynemouth-tyne-wear-best-places-to-live-hw97j38cn). It sits alongside some beautiful beaches, has its own priory and quite a number of places to eat, drink and relax. King Edward's Bay, sitting just below Tynemouth Priory has recently being identified as one of the top 10 blue flag beach in the UK by Conde Nast Traveller (https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/blue-flag-beaches-uk).

Once you get here you can take the road train (or a 1km walk along the sea-edge promenade) down to North Shield's working fish quay or in the other direction to Whitley Bay sea front! So, if you are looking for a great day out we would recommend that you take a trip to Tynemouth and enjoy the mix of bars, restaurants and shopping in this stunning north east coastal village.

Fantastic Aladdin’s Cave

Visiting Tynemouth for the day, passed by Fine and Sandy and fell in love with a chair in the window. Went in have a better look at it and were amazed by this Aladdins cave. Staff really helpful but not pushy. Good knowledge of product. Ordered the chair and it was delivered free of charge within a week. Now has pride of place in our bedroom window.
