Described as an "idyllic spot for a laid-back lunch", one North East country pub has been named among The Guardian's best in the UK for Sunday lunch.
The Beehive, in Earsdon, earned it's place on a list of 30 best pubs for Sunday lunch in the country, with The Guardian praising the pub for its "stunning" setting. Located within a 18th-century former coaching inn on Hartley Lane, the pub features an open fire which creates a cosy setting to dine during the colder months.
But for those who enjoy dining outdoors, The Beehive also offers a large beer garden and 'The Woodshed', which features overhead heat lamps, blankets and double glazed windows, as well as a secret garden. Diners can also enjoy a stroll along the nearby Whitley Bay coastline, providing the perfect Sunday day out.
