Information provided by various external sources

Fine & Sandy is a front street shop in the beautiful village of Tynemouth on the North East Coast of England (about 8 miles from Newcastle Upon Tyne). We are a home and gift shop catering for the local community and for the many visitors that come here from all over the world. If you choose to buy from our online store you are safe in the knowledge that we are a real business, run by everyday people who will give you responsive customer service! In our village shop we find that customers are surprised by the wide range of products we stock, including gifts for occasions, hats & scarves, gloves, bags, purses, jewellery, perfumes, candles and diffusers together with home decor accessories. However, we also stock some interesting small furniture items and significant pieces of work from local artists and crafts people. Everything in our shop is NOT available online, but we will continue to add more products to the online store as we go, so keep checking in! Tynemouth was recently voted as the best place to live in the North East of England (https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/tynemouth-tyne-wear-best-places-to-live-hw97j38cn). It sits alongside some beautiful beaches, has its own priory and quite a number of places to eat, drink and relax. King Edward's Bay, sitting just below Tynemouth Priory has recently being identified as one of the top 10 blue flag beach in the UK by Conde Nast Traveller (https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/blue-flag-beaches-uk). If that is not enough to convince you, Rough Guide places Tynemouth in Britain's top 30 seaside towns to visit and stay in (https://www.roughguides.com/special-features/britains-30-best-seaside-towns/tynemouth-tyne-wear/). Once you get here you can take the road train (or a 1km walk along the sea-edge promenade) down to North Shield's working fish quay or in the other direction to Whitley Bay sea front! So, if you are looking for a great day out we would recommend that you take a trip to Tynemouth and enjoy the mix of bars, restaurants and shopping in this stunning north east coastal village. If you do, pop in and say hello...we would love to see you!

Snubbed

Lady shop assistant was not very friendly or helpful when I queried about an item in the shop. All I got was a one word answer and then she totally ignored me.

Great service

The Fine & Sandy team helped me make purchase after I'd visited and later regretted not buying something. It was a bulky item but they helpfully sorted out postage and delivery. Great service.

This is a lovely shop …

This is a lovely shop in a pretty area of Tynemouth. I was also very pleased with their online shop. It's always difficult to shop for family in UK when I am abroad. And this shop made it very easy to shop local. Thank you

After a visit to this lovely store in September, whilst on holiday, where my wife loved all the "stuff", finally their website opened up for online orders. I purchased what my wife indicated she desired for Christmas, (brick hit me on the head!). Quality products, very efficient dispatch, and kept informed of tracking number. Well wrapped up in packaging. Great service. Would highly recommend.
