Bay View House: Luxury Care Home in Whitley Bay
Finding the right care home for a loved one is one of the most important decisions a family can make. At Prestwick Care, we are proud to offer exceptional care across the region, and our newest home, Bay View House in Whitley Bay, is a fantastic example of the high-quality care and facilities available in care homes across the North East.
Located on the beautiful Whitley Bay seafront, Bay View House blends modern, purpose-built facilities with the rich history of one of the town’s most iconic buildings. The home has been thoughtfully transformed from the former Rex Hotel, preserving its heritage while creating a welcoming and state-of-the-art environment for residents.

The home features 83 spacious bedrooms, each designed to provide comfort, privacy and independence. Every room includes an en-suite bathroom, specialist furnishings, Wi-Fi, and modern facilities to ensure residents feel truly at home.
For those who prefer a little extra privacy, Bay View House also offers four luxurious penthouse suites, allowing residents to maintain independence while still receiving the care and support they need.
