Northumberland Park — Attraction in North Tyneside

We love this park. Always really clean and well taken care of. It's clear a lot of love is put into its upkeep and care. Lots of lovely looping trails, but can be very hilly and steep in places.

We used to picnic on a stretch of grass that now has a cafe/visitor centre and toilets, all parks this size benefit from such facilities- grey squirrels leap from tree to tree and fish have been spotted in the pond. Lovely. Although is pushchair friendly so expect some screaming kids during the day or just...
