Very popular seaside location great for a stroll along the prom, fish and chips in one of the cafes along the front or takeaway fish and chips, plenty tea/ coffee stops or for those who prefer it some good pubs.

Keel Square

Reviewed By Lisabu0201 - Sunderland, United Kingdom

It's not a bad place, as it's tidied Sunderland town up. Although they spent all that money there is pretty much nothing there.. a town square you expect something to be there not just a fountain. Could add something there but time will tell.

Hylton Castle

Reviewed By Judge999

While not yet fully restored, this piece of history is amazing as is the story of the Hilton family and everyone in Sunderland. Picture bus loads of school children visiting the castle. They will benefit through the history of the castle and the ability of children to imagine life in 1390. Also picture weddings taking place on the grounds with amazing photos of the castle as a backdrop. Also consider the economic benefit to the entire community as tourists will visit the castle, eat in local restaurants and stay in hotels as we did. AMAZING visited June 2019

Fulwell Windmill

Reviewed By littlelisab

Visited with our 2.5 year old Grandson. He has a fascination with windmills, so this visit was very special for him. A very nice event held and everyone enjoyed the visit. We will return soon and hopefully have a full tour.
