Things to do in Newcastle upon Tyne, England: The Best Traveler Resources
Once a shipbuilding city, Newcastle's flashier claim to fame is nightlife. Throw in a heap of premium restaurants serving foods from all over the world and it's no wonder young partiers choose to blow their hard-earned (or not-so-hard-earned) cash in Newcastle. While these amenities are certainly a draw for the hipsters and culture-seekers, it's the locals that make Newcastle a truly special place to visit. "Geordies," as they are often called, embody the pride, industriousness and resilient spirit of their city.

The Mansion House was an outstanding venue for our wedding. Kristina helped us planned every detail to make the day perfect. Nothing was too much trouble for Kristina and she now feels part of our family. We were sad to leave her and the Mansion House behind on the next morning. The day ran like clockwork with Kristina and her team leaving nothing to chance or unchecked, we can’t thank her enough. The food was amazing, both in the afternoon for The Wedding Breakfast and for the Evening Reception, with many of the guests commenting that it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. The breakfast the next morning was also outstanding. Thanks to James also for looking after the later stages of the evening and the next morning. The venue was perfect for all the guests. 74 for the daytime and the full 130 for the evening do was perfect and the venue coped with those numbers with no issues. Plenty areas in the venue for guests to mill about chatting to others. Added bonus were the rooms upstairs, all spacious and very comfortable and allowed us to continue the celebration in the most fantastic venue. Most guests had never even heard of the Mansion House even though we are all local and it was just the most amazing choice Thanks so much again to Kristina and her team.
