Seaham Park

Today we paid a very chilly visit to Seaham Park which is located beside Seaham Town Council 🥶 



This is personally one of my favourite parks in the North East for the vast amount of play equipment for all ages. They have a huge piece of equipment housing 3 slides which you access using the staircase in the middle. 


They also have an outdoor gym, skate park, ability swing and cafe.




The Palm Courtyard & Cafe situated on site provides food, hot & cold drinks, ice lollies and even treats for your dog. They have a toilet inside but you must be a paying customer to use their facilities. They do a very nice hot chocolate 😋 





The park is easily accessible by car and is only a short distance from the A19. There are plenty of parking spaces including ones facing the park so parents of older children can keep warm in the car while their children play 🤣

Alternatively you can use public transport. There are 2 bus stops right outside of the park which are frequently used by various Go North East and Arriva North East buses, including the 60, 61 and 65 to name a few.

Tino’s Italian Restaurant

Image
My favourite meal is a Sunday roast and there are a few factors that make up a good one for me, which are turnip, meaty gravy and homemade Yorkshire puddings. This roast at Tino’s Italian Restaurant  in Jarrow ticked all the boxes for me. I wouldn’t even know this restaurant existed if it wasn’t on one of my husband’s bus routes, but now I’m glad I do. The Go North East  number 5 bus towards South Shields stops right outside. You can also get the Tyne & Wear Metro  to Fellgate and walk for approximately 9 minutes. It’s located on the end of a little cul-de-sac of shops in Jarrow, just off the A19 exit for Boldon. There is a small car park outside the shops but if that’s full then there’s plenty of residential streets nearby you can park on.  The Sunday roast is either £8.95 for one course or £10.95 for two courses (starter and main). The kids menu is £5.95 for 2 courses (main and ice cream). The kid’s menu states that it is designed for up to 10 years old but the portion sizes are

The Clifton Cafe

Today myself, my Sister and our Mam went for afternoon tea at The Clifton Cafe  in South Shields to celebrate Mother’s Day. The award winning cafe is a bed and breakfast housing 18 rooms and is in the perfect location on Ocean Road, 300m from the Coast and 500m from the town centre. The place is absolutely beautiful inside and out. They have a separate room to the cafe for afternoon tea. They also have a room that can be hired for parties or gatherings, also providing a buffet. The afternoon tea is very popular and the place was packed when we got there. Obviously even more so with it being Mother’s Day weekend. The food was absolutely beautiful. It was served all together on the same stand and there was one of each item for everyone. We were offered tea or coffee which was unlimited refills. The coffee was lovely. We had 4 different types of sandwiches, tuna mayo & cucumber, egg mayo & cress, ham & peas pudding and chicken & bacon. The bread was half brown and half whi
