The multi-million pound redevelopment is expected to take 11-months to complete. Once complete the site will include an ice cream parlour and fish and chip takeaway. New outdoor seating areas and terraces will make the most of the site’s elevated position and take in sea views across spectacular Longsands beach.

Works will also see the transformation of an underused function area which is being reconfigured to add a further 20 bedrooms, including sea view rooms and dog-friendly ground-floor suites.

Credited with creating a new gold standard in modern inn groups with its Eat, Drink, Sleep and Explore food-driven pubs with accommodation concept, The Inn Collection Group will trade all year round from its Tynemouth site. As well as welcoming families and outdoors enthusiasts, the venue will have designated dog friendly areas inside the bar and dining areas as well as outside spaces.
