Linskill Park is an Extra Care scheme in North Shields, offering independent living in spacious and contemporary retirement apartments, with on-site care services and a range of communal facilities designed to encourage social living.
Linskill Park is set in its own attractive grounds and comprises 63 two bedroom apartments and four bungalows. Communal facilities include a hair salon, restaurant, library, two residents’ lounges and a well-equipped laundry room. There is also a guest room for use by visiting family and friends.
The court’s large rear garden features a patio and seating area, raised beds and trellising. Residents are able to get involved with the gardening, with their own areas to tend.
There is also a golf club and rugby club close to the court, and a popular local park. There are two retail parks close by: Royal Quays, which has a number of shops, a pub, restaurant and hotel, and Silverlink, which offers shops, restaurants and a cinema. There are two leisure centres close by in Whitley Bay and Tynemouth, a short drive away.
North Shields holds an annual Christmas Market, and nearby Tynemouth hosts markets every Saturday and Sunday, with a farmers’ market the third Saturday of each month.
