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!

Another great purchase from Fine&Sandy
Another great purchase from Fine&Sandy. Slight hiccup initially with the wrong item being sent but having emailed to advise on this I received an immediate reply and the correct item together with prepaid return label for the wrong one were despatched the same day.
Excellent personal customer service which is very refreshing in these current times. I highly recommend this supplier and will definitely buy from them again.
