HERE IS WHAT YOU GET!

Whitley Bay has miles of sandy beaches and is a lovely little town full of shops and fabulous international restaurants. Carnivals (Spanish City) and activities are all along the esplanade (sea front). There is something for players and adults (even Tynemouth Castle and the remnants of the end of (Roman Emperor) Hadrian's Wall) with only twenty-five minutes by Metro to Newcastle city! It is about a ten to twenty minute walk to the Churchill Playing Fields or a stop or two on the Metro (depending on your hotel's location) and less than hour by train to the old Norman cathedral cities of York and Durham!

* GREAT SIGHTSEEING!

Durham After the Normans defeated the Saxons at Hastings in 1066, they set out to subdue the local population and built great cathedrals of worship. Two of these cities are within an hour of Newcastle. Durham has a massive cathedral and a castle which, since its original construction in the 12th century, has had many architectural additions.









York has the second most famous cathedral (or minster) in England next to Canterbury. A L6,000,000 ($10,2000,000) restoration has just been completed, although it can be said that restoration is an on-going process. York also has the Jorvik Center, where the excavations of the original Viking are open and Clifford's Tower, the keep of the original Norman castle in the town. York is also famous for its city walls.







Edinburgh SCOTLAND

Edinburgh is the Scottish capital and what great city it is! It is only 90 minutes by train from Newcastle. Get off at Waverley Station, the bridge that separates the New and Old Towns. You will be met by a guide who will lead a walking tour of the Old Town, the Royal Mile and the famous castle.
