​Preston Park Museum's Victorian Street

So, after our visit to the Behind the Seams exhibition, we had a wander through the Victorian Street at Preston Park Museum. This brought back a lot of memories as I hadn't been since a school trip, probably 15 years ago!

There was a lovely atmosphere as it was the run up to Christmas, and the street was decorated with trees, wreaths and lights. There's something about a Victorian Christmas which feels a lot more Christmassy than normal.

​Behind the Seams Exhibition, Preston Park Museum, Teesside

Preston Park Museum, Stockton on Tees, is currently hosting an exhibition, "Behind the Seams," which is showcasing a selection of costumes from some of the biggest films and TV shows around. The exhibition is a glimpse into the world of Angels Costumes, the world's longest established, and largest, professional costume house...

It's Chilly in Kielder

I have wanted to go up to Kielder water for a while now, but living in London makes it all the more difficult, so I took advantage of being in the North East (you know all the annual leave you get stacked up at the end of the year, right?!) and went up for the day with a few friends. If you don't know where it is...

An Afternoon at Seaton Carew Beach

The North East isn't short of beaches, I can tell you that! We're lucky because ours are all sandy and packed with interesting finds. I love to go to the beach, just for a wander, so when I was up North visiting my parents recently, I made a point of going. We went to Seaton Carew, one of the many beaches on Teesside. It's great as it's cleaned daily and was even granted a "Seaside Award" recently. It's also a...

A Short Walk in the Grounds of Raby Castle

If you're from the North East, you'll definitely know that there are tonnes of castles in the region. Castles in use, castles in ruins, whatever your preference of castle is - there'll be one in the NE. I love castles/palaces/stately homes and find the entire subject fascinating. I'm not that great at history but I just love the wonder of what might have happened in the spot where you're stood...

Whitworth Hall and Country Park

What better activity is there to do on Christmas Eve, than go and see Santa's reindeers?! Well... maybe not Santa's ACTUAL reindeers - but reindeers nevertheless. I'd been to Whitworth Hall years ago and knew that there were deer there, but never been recently. I've got a thing about deer - I think they're so majestic and I'd wanted to try and get some close up photos of them for ages. Last time I saw deer was...
