Saltwell Park, based in the heart of Gateshead, is one of Britain's finest examples of a Victorian Park. In recent years, the park has seen an impressive transformation and has been restored to its Victorian splendour.
It encompasses 55 acres of landscapes, woodland and ornamental gardens as well as public sports facilities, a refreshment house, a lake, play areas, bowling greens, Saltwell Towers, the animal house, an education centre and a maze.
Saltwell Tower's a fairy tale mansion house, now houses a visitor centre and cafe. The monthly Low Fell Food Market which takes place inside Saltwell Park is not to be missed for all foodies, with some of the region's finest street food stalls and producers selling their goods.
Park open dawn till dusk.
