Things to do in North East England

Had a wonderful day feeding the meercats at Knockhatch adventure park. Ben the guide was helpful and knowledgeable. Very easy to book with park. Will definitely return.

This was a lovely gift and the opportunity to learn about Heart Yorkshire Vineyards and wine making. The presentation by one of the family members was engaging and informative. Chatting through their history leading to their success story. We were then taken around the Vineyards explaining the different types and how they are maintained. Then finally into were the manic happens, from grapes, to wine to bottling. When we returned to the marquee we had wine tasting laid out with some light bites to accompany. This was followed by lunch from a choice of 5 lunch menus. Quick visit to the shop to buy some of their wonderful wine. An absolutely lovely afternoon, highly recommended if you are into your wines.

What a glorious day out we had for our Afternoon Tea and Alnwick Gardens gift. The Afternnon Tea was delicious after spending the morning looking around Alnwick Castle the gardens, (We have Historic Houses memersjp so we didn’t need to pay). The gardens are beautiful and the tea delicious. We got a little box to take home what we couldn’t eat. The staff were so efficient too, nothing was trouble to then.

Had a lovely afternoon tea, grand setting, good food and courteous helpful staff. Very good.

Lovely day out with the family, seeing the grand children with big smiles means the world! Thank you to my employer Aspire People for the voucher!

I cannot praise Veeno Italian Wine Cafe enough. Absolutely fantastic, food was amazing, Manager fantastic. Food delicious, atmosphere and interior so perfect, and dog friendly. We'll done.

As we entered Grinkle Park Hotel the receptionist set the tone for our afternoon. Her friendly greeting was repeated by all the staff we met. The afternoon tea , including fresh strawberries with a small bowl of melted chocolate ready for dipping, could not be faulted. The views over the grounds as we had our tea were superb. This was given to me as a gift which I thoroughly enjoyed and I know I will be treating myself and my husband to another afternoon at this excellent venue.
