Thank you so much for your lovely review, Mr. or Mrs. or Miss Anonymous. Having once slept on the bed myself, I can only agree! As for Lorraine's awesome breakfasts, well, they are still the best I've had (but I would say that, wouldn't I ...). Kind regards Andrew

Hello Susan Thank you ever so much for your wonderful review. Your top marks really help us compete against the big boys out there! Looking forward to seeing you again next time. Kindest regards Andrew
Small single room but fine for a short stay and good value for money.
Lorraine was very welcoming. Perfect location. Lovely breakfast.

Absolutely wonderful!
I absolutely loved my stay there. The room was spotless and very cosy. Both my mum and I slept very comfortably and we’re both fairly picky when it comes to bed and pillows. The bathroom was spacious and very clean. We had a full English breakfast on both daysand it was wonderful as well. But the real gems are the owners. I haven’t had much time to chat with Andrew, but he was so helpful when we first arrived and Lorraine is an absolute sweetheart. My mum, who doesn’t speak English, couldn’t stop telling me how wonderful and welcoming Lorraine was and I think she was fairly jealous she couldn’t have a chat with her. I would totally recommend this place and I will definitely come back in the future if my travels take me to South Shields again.

“Don’t usually stay in guest houses…”
We don’t usually stay in guest houses, we normally use hotels but South Shore was great, very nice owners and clean and comfortable, owners were very nice and easy to get on with.

Hi Barry Thank you very much for such a positive review. Look forward to seeing you again in the future. Kind regards Lorraine and Andrew
Staying at South Shore Guest House helped make our Sunderland trip perfect.
We were in town for a concert May 2023, and staying at South Shore Guest House was like visiting godparents on a school holiday – warm, welcoming, cozy, and caring. The best part was our hostess Lorraine’s charming stories over the hearty homemade breakfasts that she and her husband prepared for all the guests each morning. The town of South Shields is a dreamy, friendly community by the sea, and this B&B is in the perfect spot for strolling to and fro from the diverse restaurants & stores to the excellent dog watching at the pier. Also, super convenient to find from the train station. I can’t recommend a stay there enough; 10/10.
