A region as varied as it is underrated, North East England offers the English countryside at its best, with roaring fireplaces, long pub lunches, rolling green hills and old stone villages, alongside wide, empty beaches and cities that feel welcoming from the first pint. Walk a stretch of Hadrian’s Wall in the morning, eat fish and chips on the Northumberland coast in the afternoon, and finish the day in a Newcastle pub, wondering why it took you so long to visit.
