Day 1
Departing the local area, we travel north with a stop on route before arriving at the 4* Copthorne Hotel Newcastle, with time to settle in before dinner.
|Day 2
This morning, we are joined by a local guide for a guided coach tour of Newcastle. We return to the hotel for an afternoon at leisure in Newcastle city centre.
|Day 3
Today we visit the open-air Beamish Museum, which tells the story of life in the North East during the 1820s, 1900s and 1940s, all set within 300 acres of beautiful countryside. Experience life in the 1820s at Pockerley, explore a 1900s town and see how families lived and worked in the years leading up to the First World War. Visit the Colliery & Pit village and discover how life was on the home front during the Second World War on the Farm with Land Girls and the Home Guard.
|Day 4
Today we enjoy a visit to Belsay Hall, Castle & Gardens. Boasting sweeping views over gentle rolling countryside, and set within the evocative landscape of Northumberland's 'border country'. The Belsay that visitors see today comprises three distinct but related elements: a medieval castle that was enlarged in the early 17th century, a Greek revival mansion that superseded it as a family residence at the beginning of the 19th century, and an outstanding garden linking the two buildings.
|Day 5
Departing the hotel, we make our way south with comfort stops on route.
