AWAY FROM IT ALL
Dreaming of a bit of seaside seclusion? Take in the beachy views of Budle Bay and beyond at Shepherd’s Cottage, near Bamburgh…
TIME OUT
Catch a classic film and scoff fancy, home-baked finger food at Newcastle’s Tyneside Cinema’s Afternoon Tea event on Sunday. Add a glass of fizz to the mix for an extra couple of quid.
In or around Leeds this weekend? If so, brunch it up at Harvey Nichols’ Sunday cocktail masterclass. Start with Mimosas, make your own Bloody Mary and muddle up brekkie martinis.
WITH THE KIDS
Beamish’s tram-tastic Power from the Past event kicks off this weekend. Kids can hop on Tram 147 during its last weekend in service before it returns back to Blackpool.
Take them to see the world premier of Gangsta Granny, written by TV funnyman-turned-children’s author, David Walliams, at Billingham’s Forum Theatre this weekend.
FOODIE
Wrap up warm and mooch the mouthwatering stalls at Stokesley Farmers’ Market on Saturday. Stock up on Sunday brekkie must-haves and brunchy weekend treats. Fill your larder!
It’s Local Food Weekend in Middlesbrough. Dine out at a number of participating cafes, restaurants and foodie outlets (look for the ‘Growing Middlesbrough’ signs) and enjoy fresh, homegrown delights.
