Angel of the North
The Angel of the North has been welcoming visitors to Gateshead since 1998. The sculpture is huge, you won’t miss it! It is taller than four double deckers and its wingspan is as big as a jumbo jet.
Wooden beams and a cosy open fire make this former 17th century inn a comfortable place to stay for an activity break or for visits to nearby Newcastle and Durham. Edmundbyers is popular accommodation for walking holidays, with much to explore amongst this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The area also features a section of the Sea-to-Sea cycle route. Derwent Reservoir attracts trout anglers and watersports fans or for a day out try Beamish outdoor museum and Hadrian’s Wall – both are nearby.

Manager recommends: While enjoying your walking or activity holiday, don't miss the picturesque village of Blanchland for a lowland stroll, or head to the rugged uplands or to Hadrian’s Wall for a day’s hike.
