NORTH East

From south of the Scottish borders down to the North Pennines, the North East is packed with magical places to visit, breathtaking scenery and cities to wonder at.

Whether it’s visiting the Harry Potter film set Hogwarts – aka Alnwick Castle – shopping in Gateshead’s Metrocentre or finding solace in the Kielder Water & Forest Park, the North East has something for everyone, says editor Victoria Galligan…

The Northumberland coastline offers visitors some of the most breathtaking and idyllic scenery in the United Kingdom, while a few miles in land those who frequent here will be to tell you of the hustle and bustle of the city. Often a forgotten corner of the country, the North East of England has lots to offer and it isn’t only promoted at humans either. Have you ever considered that every time you leave your dog at home, they think you are just going on ‘walkies’ without them? Well, now you don’t have to.
