Media Reviews
... this is an enjoyable book to read, well-researched and a guidebook worth carrying while you explore Northumberland and Durham. Stuart Foster The Travel Editor 'Informed, engaging, reliable, this Bradt guide is one you can read with pleasure before, during and after your trip. Gemma Hall loves the place, and so she jolly well ought, having lived there for so many years. There seems barely a corner of those fine old counties, and Newcastle of course, that she has not walked. Visitors and residents alike will find it invaluable.' waterstones.com
