Multimillion-pound leisure scheme set to open on Northumberland seafront

The first phase of a new multimillion-pound retail and leisure development in a Northumberland seaside town is set to open before Christmas.

Food on the go favourite Greggs and local beauty salon Shorelocks are the first tenants at The Links at South Beach in Blyth, who are both on course to move into their units after finishing touches are made in December. In recent weeks two further lettings have also been agreed, including with Prudhoe-based Italian coffee house Caffe Ginevra.

Newcastle retail property consultancy @retail is taking enquiries from more potential occupiers hoping to take on the three remaining units of the project, which has been led by Blagdon Estate and Kingsmead Developments in plans which will create around 175 jobs. The Links will also feature a Co-op convenience store in the largest of the units, spanning 3,760 sq ft.
