Latest Corbridge Review

Surrounded by the beautiful Northumberland countryside is the town od Corbridge. It is close to Newcastle city centre and the Metrocentre which is the largest shopping centre in Europe with hundreds of shops, restaurants and even a cinema. We enjoyed lots of outdoor activities such as cycling and horse riding which is an excellent way to explore the area. Historical attractions that we found really interesting are Hexham Abbey and Hadrian's wall.
