    Great video! I don't think there is anything wrong with keeping a spot you really like secret. Don't need to turn it into a hotel. Needs to stay peaceful and relaxing for the people who gave you the tip.

    Hi from a fellow Geordie - enjoyed the vlog. I'm chomping at the bit waiting to get out. Unfortunately I don't drive so I'm reliant on lifts. I'm just down the road from you in Wallsend. Bought some new gear and a two man tent that I cannot wait to try out. That location looks perfect to be out there now (June 6th) D day-
