When I was in Whitley Bay in December, the owner of the Avalon Hotel invited me to come and celebrate his 50th birthday in July 2011. Which I did. It was a celebration from Friday until early Sunday morning. I met very nice members of his family, members of the hole in the wall clan bikers, and other bikers. One had come all the way from Germany.
I wanted to buy a mobile phone but did not have a Paypal account. That was no problem. Michael bought it and it arrived the next day. So I paid him for the phone.
After six day at the hotel I was asked if I would pay an amount per night which was so little that I had a feeling that I was exploiting him, but no, it was OK!
Breakfast was as it always was, perfect. I think I am known to the kitchen staff as Mr. extra Bacon. :-))
Michael and Kathleen and Ron and Robert: Thank you all for a very nice stay at your hotel. And as the Amercan general McArthur said: "I will return"

We stayed at The Avalon over a bank holiday weekend, not something I would recommend unless you 30 or younger. Having said that the hotel was good value. It is located fairly close to the Metro, there are lots of restaurants in the area and parking is available. The full breakfast was quite good. Room came equipped with a kettle, tea and coffee, Iron and Ironing board. They were able to provided me with a hair dryer when I asked. The only down side is that is party central on the weekends and that there are plenty of stairs which may not be great for older people.
