Kelly United Kingdom

I always love it when I visit. The Manager went out of his way to be nice to me as I was a bit late due to travel difficulties. I love the fact that is quiet so that I can write poetry. Respect to Mill Dam🌹

Jules United Kingdom

This was very low cost accommodation; it was perfectly located for somewhere to sleep before working very close by the next day. The room and bed were clean. It’s pointless comparing the decor and bathroom layout with a boutique hotel five times the price, so I won’t. The en-suite was very confined and solely functional in terms of design: but everything worked, everything was as promised, and I slept well. Job done.

Simon United Kingdom

Room was lovely had one with patio area kids loved it definitely going back

Amie United Kingdom

The staff were incredibly helpful and accomodating for us. Victoria was so kind and we're very grateful to her. The staff helped us out and answered every question we had.

Miriam United Kingdom

Staff went out of their way to make your stay perfect. Everything you need in your doorstep.

Samantha Isle of Man

Location once familiarised with area was good, together with very good parking facility. Good clean room which was generously stocked with tea/coffee etc. The bed was very comfy. Shower unit was adequate. No charges for our pet dog was very generous and welcoming.

Gerald United Kingdom

Easy to find and room was ready on arrival, room was clean

William(bill) United Kingdom

Small fridge in the room was a great touch and was very cosy and warm

Roxiroo United Kingdom

Comfortable, clean accommodation for the price. Excellent location for the local bars and restaurants and the Customs House.

Host Information

Host review score 8.5

The property is located in the Riverside Area of South Shields, neighbouring Customs House Theatre and very close to the North Shields Ferry. Shops and Amenities are within walking distance.

We love to meet new people and have been fortunate that our line of work has enabled us to accommodate some really amazing people. All are welcome at Mill Dam Guest House including your pets.

Although neighbours with Customs House Theatre and several friendly public bars, noise is not an issue. We are situated in a conservation area and have many pleasant views and walks and we are also right on top of the town centre and its amenities.
