Stephenson Railway Museum is 2.1 mi (3.3 km) from central North Shields, why not stop by during your stay. Why not take a stroll along the riverfront and watch the sunset while you're here? It's also full of great shops and restaurants, so you can spend the afternoon having a wander. If you want to experience more of the culture North Shields has to offer, head to Wet 'n' Wild Water Park, Port Of Tyne, and Longsands Beach.
