Had a lovely relaxing afternoon at the studio in August with my 6 year old and newborn son. We enjoyed it so much we’ve now done a couple of the takeaway kits at home too which we love doing. Something a bit different for us to do together with the added bonus of having a keepsake at the end of it. Really good value when visiting the studio or when completing at home and the kits include everything you’d need. Highly recommended ????

Debenhams, Boots, Disney etc. Yes it gets the chavs but so does the Metro Centre and Eldon Square but as the Bridges is on one level and relatively small prob more noticeable. Plenty of parking and decent choice of shops - always very clean.

Went with a friend to hire a bike for him as I had my own. The staff member was very friendly and the mountain bike was chosen within minutes cost £15 for the day we had it for two days hence £30 easy hire procedure showed Id (driving licence) since we would be using it after the shop shut so needed for two days. I took the bike back the next day(after one days hire), first thing at 9A.M the staff member without me asking went to the till and refunded me the £15, all in all very smooth procedure bike was light weight as well. If you need to hire a bike in Sunderland for a day for going for bike ride along coast route or up river Wear then try this place. They give you a Bike lock as well.
