Ten minutes drive from the A1, and less than two miles from the A189, Longshore Village is a superb base for travel throughout Tyneside, as well as for exploring the countryside and coast of Northumberland.
Newcastle and Gateshead are around half an hour’s drive away, and frequent buses between Blyth and Newcastle stop just outside the development, travelling via Cramlington and reaching Newcastle Haymarket bus station in less than 40 minutes.
A shopping precinct around ten minutes walk away includes a large licensed Co-op, two convenience stores, a Boots pharmacy and several takeaways.
Blyth town centre has a variety of shopping environments. Traditional streets, where retailers sit side by side with pubs, cafés and restaurants, contrast with the Keel Row covered mall.
A historic open air market, with stalls ranging from books and plants to crafts and fresh produce, is held on Fridays and Saturdays and complemented by a Wednesday flea market and, at the delightful Boardwalk, retail pods inspired by Blyth’s beach huts provide an outlet for local entrepreneurs.
The Phoenix Theatre in Blyth presents an eclectic programme of drama, comedy, music and variety, and there is a Vue Cinema and a leisure centre, Concordia, with a bowling alley, a climbing wall, a leisure pool and a gym just three and a half miles away in Cramlington, beside the Manor Walks shopping and leisure centre, home to more than 100 stores.
Longshore Village is in the catchment areas for New Delaval Primary School, fifteen minutes walk away, which also caters for pre-school children from age two, and for Bede Academy, a secondary and sixth form school specialising in engineering and enterprise. Both are assessed as ‘Good’ by Ofsted.
The GP practice at Newsham Surgery, a few minutes walk away, is part of the Railway Medical Group. It opens three and a half days each week.
Local leisure amenities include Blyth Sports Centre where three pools, a gym, a sauna, a sports hall and squash courts are complemented by a soft play area for children.
What makes Longshore Village really special, however, is the wealth of outdoor attractions nearby, from the adjacent park and children’s playground to the superb expanse of Blyth Beach, a 25 minute stroll away.
South Newsham Playing Fields, the delightful tree-lined nature reserve at Newsham Pond, the challenging and mature course of Blyth Golf Club, and the sports facilities at the Miners Welfare Park are all within a few minutes’ walk.
