Great, friendly staff. Knowledgeable and very helpful. Started going there when my local office closed and, even if it re-opens, I will continue to go to Lemington. Totally recommended!! read more

The Market Place Post Office has a deceptive name as it located away from the main market place…read morearea and is actually found in the west end of the front street. It is very easy to find and is near to the TSB bank. There is a post box outside of the building. The building has a slight ramp up to the door which means easy access for prams and wheelchairs. The door is easy to open too. Inside there is a small area where you can queue. I find that because it gets so busy the queue is often trailing out of the front entrance. This makes entering and exiting very difficult. There is a stand selling cards for all occassions, a working photo booth and a children's bubblegum machine inside. There is also a wall mounted stand where you can get padded envelopes. If you need to write anything or fill out a form you can lean on the windowsill area. This is a bit awkward but there is usually a pen lying on the sill ready to be used. There are several booths where you can be served. I do find that the most staff here is usually two people and more often it is only one. This tends to mean long queues and waiting times. There are pens chained to the boothes and scales where you can weigh your post. The staff talk you through all transactions. I must say that some staff members are a little bit stern and bad tempered and sometimes just gesture instead of speaking. I find this a little rude and unpleasant. A busy, post office, the next nearest office is located next door to the Spar shop at Bedlington Station. Parking is available at street level or behind the front street in free carpark.

Last year I made the mistake of paying someone to proof read my passport form before I sent it off and someone didn't do their job properly. The good thing about this shop is that it's fairly central and you can buy bubble wrap, parcel boxes and there is a fair selection of reasonably priced plain stationery.

Altogether there are three counters, though usually only one person serving unless it is a busy day (e.g. Monday). There are often queues because of this, though I have never waited more than 15-minutes to be served. The staff are generally very friendly and helpful, and do not do the annoying cross-selling of their products so much as in some other Post Offfices I have been to. Overall this is a nice little Post Office. I just hope that it is not targeted for closing down as there is not another within the area so it would be a shame for the local people to lose it.

Gibside Estate, near Rowlands Gill in Tyne and Wear is the ancestral estate of the Bowes-Lyon…read morefamily. (The Queen Mother was born Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon.) The estate chapel and grand walk have been owned bythe National Trust since the 1960s and they acquired some more of the grounds in the 1990s. It's a stunning place with beautiful grounds and lots of wildlife and woodland and riverside walks. My attitude towards Gibside is coloured somewhat by having gotten lost there a few years back following a badly signposted trail - it's a fantastic place but I don't stray too far! Gibside Chapel can host Anglican weddings and on those days the chapel is closed to public access. It is a truly stunning venue for a wedding. Facilities at the estate include a tea room, free car parking, gift shop with regional products and baby changing facilities.

They also have farmers markets every month over the summer (on Saturdays) and these offer product grown there and on other local National Trust properties and NE businesses. Very friendly service, usually some music and you don't have to pay to visit the market (same for the tearoom, shop and loos.) They also have Brass in the Park every month, on Sundays, when local brass bands play in front of the chapel. Take a picnic, some easy chairs, the Sunday paper and enjoy!
