See the very best spas from the Victorian spa town of Harrogate to the Northumberland coast.
A region rich in history, contemporary culture, breath-taking landscapes and ruggedly beautiful coastline.
If being pampered and pummelled while surrounded by nature’s bountiful beauty is your thing, choose a spa in the North East and you will not be disappointed. Start on the Durham coast at Asian-inspired Seaham Hall, where an underground walkway of pebbles and running water leads you to the spa and a huge carved elephant, or head to Rockliffe Hall near Darlington, a red-brick five-star with a vast thermal bathing suite and spa butlers on hand.
Countryside lovers will adore Wynyard Hall, whose award-winning spa is in a converted boathouse on the shores of a lake, and Slaley Hall, an Edwardian hotel amid acres of Northumberland forest with a 20-metre pool for a proper swim.
Cosmopolitan cities and serene stretches of unspoilt landscapes
Newcastle and Durham have set the bar high for stylish city living, while the area also offers the ultimate escape to England’s least populated county, Northumberland. Famed for its wide and, often, deserted sandy beaches and protected moorlands; its national park - the northernmost in the UK - offers 400 square miles of woodland, hiking tracks and squeaky clean rivers.
Ocean lovers can wander the 62-mile Northumberland Coast Path – from Cresswell in the south to Berwick-upon-Tweed in the north – dotted with dramatic castles, pretty seaside towns and bracing clifftops.
Sitting proud on its rocky plateau overlooking the North Sea, Bamburgh Castle makes a magical backdrop for beach walks.
Hadrian’s Wall runs right across the region, with Roman forts to explore along the way.
Durham Cathedral has dominated the skyline of this Medieval city for the past 900 years; Harry Potter fans should visit Chapter House and Cathedral Cloisters for a Hogwarts experience.
