Newcastle
Newcastle is one of the UK’s biggest and most vibrant cities. It’s a popular destination for shoppers, with a wide range of restaurants and entertainment on offer too. The iconic Tyne Bridge is a must-see, and football fans cannot miss St James’ Park, home to Newcastle United Football Club.
Alnwick Castle
As featured in Downton Abbey, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and two Harry Potter films, the beautiful Alnwick Castle is a popular filming location – and it’s also a great day out for the whole family to enjoy with lots of events and activities taking place throughout the year.
Kielder Observatory
Northumberland enjoys some of the darkest skies in the world, and you can reap the full benefits with a visit to this public astronomical observatory, just 15 minutes’ drive away from our Kielder Waterside resort.
