Gardens to Visit?
We will be visiting Newcastle the week of Aug 4 from United States. I'm wondering if there are any flower gardens that are open to the public that I could visit while there?
Thanks so much.

The RHS garden at Harlow Carr near Harrogate is about 70 miles away from Newcastle. Much closer is the National trust property at Cragside, Morpeth.

Both the house and gardens are well worth a visit.
RE: Gardens to Visit?
Yes, I have never actually visited myself, but in Durham City there are the Botanic Gardens. I know someone who works there and I Know there is a website so you could look for info there. Good luck.

RE: Gardens to Visit?
There are loads of gardens near Newcastle, Belsay Hall, is the first one that springs to mind, but also the Duchess of Northumberland has just developed a new garden in Alnwick Castle (Where they filmed Harry Potter)Why not try the Northumberland Torist Information site, I think they are all listed on there. Most of the stately homes have gardens which are open.
Travel Tips for Newcastle upon Tyne
Tyne Tees Shipping
This is one of Susan's favourite features on the Quayside at Newcastle. It is an original sign for the Tyne Tees Shipping Company showing the destinations that they covered. In the 1920's my Grandmother sailed from here to London to 'go into service' - that is, to be a servant girl in a wealthy household.
Newcastle has submitted a bid...
Newcastle has submitted a bid to become capital of culture in 2008 and looks like it might win with a great mix in cultures here and everyone gets along. Newcastle has a china town which is brilliant for great food, king lous being one of my personal favourites. People of all colours, shape and sizes are welcomed in newcastle. You might have trouble understanding the Geordie accent but you'll pick it up as you go along. when on trains and buses the more elderly passgengers would prefer a seat and it would be very kind of you to give up your seat if there is none left and a elderly person comes on.
Durham Catherdral
Standing as one of the greatest achievements in Norman architecture, the Durham Cathedral rests within the town of Durham, England and serves as the resting place of Saint Cuthbert, an early English Saint, and Saint Bede, a great scholar of the Anglo-Saxon time period. Known as the Durham Cathedral Church of Christ and Blessed Mary the Virgin1, the Cathedral serves today as a church, monastery, and central focus of the community that now stands in Durham. Built as primarily a final resting place of the aforementioned Saints, the most fascinating part of the Cathedral is primarily its architectural significance and symbol of accomplishment to the western world.
St. Aidan's Church
St. Aidan's Church is right next to Bamburgh Castle and one of the three finest parish churches in Northumberland. Its origins date from 635 AD when St. Aidan came to Lindisfarne from Iona. The chancel is said to be the second longest in the country (60ft).
There is an effigy of Grace Darling in the North Aisle and her memorial is found in the churchyard so it can be seen by passing ships.
