A great house with a great host, as a bed and breakfast in Gateshead
Pros:

The host was friendly and joyous, and welcomed us very kindly. The room we stayed in was spacious, comfortable and clean, including the ensuite shower room. The night was quiet, even with the room being on Durham Road. The host served us a great breakfast that he cooked himself. Very good value for money. This area of Durham Road is residential, and the house is a beautiful one, with a welcoming small front garden. There are a couple of parks with large trees and we had a nice early dinner at an indian restaurant, all just a few meters away, walking distance. We parked for free on Cramer Street or Whitby Close (not accessible from Durham Road but via the back streets). I'm happy to recommend this hotel.

Cons:

Nothing
