A dog groomer who visited Whitley Bay for the first time and then relocated her business 360 miles north hasn't "pawsed" for thought once about the life-changing decision.
Tracy Scott, 50, had a successful business, Castle Canines, in Somerset that overlooked Dunster Castle, near Minehead, which had a huge client list with full order books and led an active social life being a member of the local RNLI crew and a rugby coach.
But a short holiday break in Whitley Bay changed the course of her life embarking her on a new business and life journey.
