Gateshead

Situated south of the Tyne, Gateshead and the surrounding towns play host to a large proportion of the population of the North-East. Gateshead centre is currently undergoing massive regeneration with innovative buildings like the Sage taking shape. Often described as Newcastle’s poor relation Gateshead is a popular choice for people seeking a place to live as it has excellent transport links and the accommodation is extremely competitive. Typical commuting times to Newcastle range from 5 minutes to 20 minutes using the excellent Tyne & Wear Metro System.
