Hudsons Haven

Grainger Town pulses with independent shops, cafés and restaurants, while the Quayside and St James' Park are both within walking distance. Hudsons Haven sits at the heart of this neighbourhood, converted from the former Tyne Theatre and Opera House rehearsal rooms into a substantial ground-floor apartment sleeping six.

The layout gives you three double bedrooms, a bathroom with bath and shower, and a living and dining space with Freeview TV. The kitchen is fitted with an electric oven and hob, dishwasher, washing machine and microwave—practical if you're staying longer than a weekend. Bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi and electricity are included. There's one parking space on site.

The building is all on one level, so no stairs to navigate. Smoking is not permitted inside. From here you're a few minutes' walk from Chinatown's restaurants and food shops, and the surrounding streets are thick with independent places to eat and drink.
