We had a lovely week at the Hive. The flat was clean, comfortable, bright and well equipped. We were met by Andy and Mandy, they were friendly and informative.There was a lovely view from the flat across the Tyne to the bridges, the Baltic and the Sage. We travelled by train and used the buses, very easy, short distance into the city centre. We enjoyed the museums, galleries, Tynemouth and Whitley Bay. Newcastle was friendly and relaxed city.
