Newcastle is a contemporary city in the north-east of England, famous for its nightlife and its football. It’s a very cultural city, with a number of museums and major art galleries, while the Tyne River that separates the city from Gateshead is a hub of bars, restaurants and nightclubs. It’s great for shopping too, with a number of shopping centres in the city itself and the nearby Metro Centre offering a wealth of places to shop and dine.
With its array of culture and nightlife, Newcastle tends to be popular with younger professionals, but the surrounding green spaces, particularly Northumberland to the north with its country walks, castles and beaches, make it perfect for families who want a varied, activity-packed lifestyle.
