Have a look at our new homes in the North East and get a feel for life in a region that has Scotland and the North Sea as neighbours.
The North East has a gritty and down-to-earth reputation for its ship-building and mining past, for its wild coastline and Viking folklore, and for the wonderful Geordie voice of Newcastle upon Tyne. Tyneside, Wearside and Teesside are its major urban areas, but this is also a region of expansive farmland, great long beaches and remote National Parks.
