From the Scottish borders to the counties of Yorkshire, North East England is a region often overlooked by tourists and natives from other parts of Great Britain. The region, often characterised by an industrial age long since past, has gone through immense change and regeneration.
To those that know the North East, there is a wealth of beauty unspoilt by large numbers of visitors. The county of Northumberland is dotted with beautiful historic towns such as Berwick on the Scottish border, Alnwick and Hexham.
It is a region of contrast. The wild beauty of the Northumberland National Park (http://www.northumberland...) and the modern life of Newcastle. The quiet pit villages of County Durham and the historic grandeur of Durham Cathedral (http://www.durhamcathedra...). The new, the old and the disused all reside in stark relief.
The real beauty of North East England is its secret. So few know what this area really has to offer.
