Default A month in England

Hello,

What sightseeing spots outside of London would you reccommend to a
first time visitor in England outside of London?.

Many Thanks,

NUFC_1892

York, Bath, Cotswolds if you like little villages. Go for a walk
in the English Lake district. Take a canal trip. visit some
castles. Are you excluding Scotland and Wales?

Starting from Newcastle? Hadrians Wall, Vindolanda, the Northumberland coast
including Craster, Bamburgh. Across to the Lake District for some
spectacular scenery and walks. Don't discount Scotland either, it ins't far,
especially on the train.

I'm surprised the nurse gives him Internet access. :-)

I'd recommend North Shields for a day out.

South Shields is better but you can do both with a nice ferry ride inbetween
the two!

But not this time of year, it's bloody freezing!

There's not a car ferry between the two is there? We use DFDS to get
to Yorkshire from NL. I thought several times that it might be
possible, if the tunnel is blocked, to take a short cut,if there is a
car ferry across the Tyne.
