A new multimillion-pound beachfront leisure and shopping scheme is set to open in Blyth within weeks.
Developers working on the £4.5m-plus development The Links, at South Beach in Blyth, have confirmed that the final touches are now being made ahead of the launch of the first phase. The first tenants to move in will be bakery giant Greggs and beauty salon Shorelocks, who are both on course to move into their units before Christmas. Other tenants have also agreed lettings deals, including Prudhoe-based Italian coffee house Caffe Ginevra.
North East retail property consultancy @retail is currently taking enquiries from more potential occupiers hoping to be part of the project by Blagdon Estate and Kingsmead Developments, which will also feature a Co-op convenience store in the largest of the units, spanning 3,760 sq. ft. @retail will also soon confirm details of a bistro bar and events business that is set to move into unit 1a at the new coastal hub. In all, the plans which will create around 175 jobs.
