Difficult to find where to go in North East of England ?? let me help you here :)
Here you can have it all: dazzling city life and Blue Flag beaches, vibrant culture and great shopping, cosmopolitan cafés and sparkling nightlife. And the great news it that everything’s just a short stroll or Metro ride away.
NewcastleGateshead’s rejuvenated Quayside dazzles with culture -
BALTIC: Centre for Contemporary Art,
The SAGE Gateshead: international music venue and the iconic Gateshead Millinium Bridge
In the city centre, the architecturally fascinating Grey Street was voted Best Street in Britain by Radio 4 listeners.
Eating out is a treat for all the senses, with many restaurants having wonderful river or city views. There are also some great places to stay on the Quayside and town centre, there are also some hotels if you fancy staying out of the centre but close as well.
Shopping malls such as Eldon Square and Metro Centre Gateshead, one of Europe’s largest shopping centre, contrast with quirky markets at Jesmond Dene and Tynemouth station. Tynemouth also has thriving surfing and café-bar scenes.
The city is surrounded by open spaces: Jesmond Dene; Saltwell Park and Gibside - home to rare red kites - and award-winning beaches line the nearby coast. Walk or cycle the coastal paths, see the amazing rock stack in Marsden Bay.
Nearby Sunderland, the city by the sea, is set right on the mouth of the River Wear next to an award-winning coastline and surrounded by easily accessible countryside. Look out for the adrenalin rush of the Red Arrows at the annual Sunderland International Airshow and the world's best kite flyers at the International Friendship Festival in July each year.
