Places to go near Newcastle upon Tyne
Lovers of myth and mystery are well served in ancient Northumberland. Folklore, legend, imposing ruins and magical hillsides - frequented by the Queen of the Fairies - are par for the course in this area. Sir Walter Scott loved it here, and visitors today are enthralled by the same vast woods and border towns.
