Win a Two-Night Family City Break in Newcastle

Living North is delighted to have teamed up with Newcastle's fabulous INNSiDE by Meliá to offer one lucky family the chance to enjoy a two-night stay and dinner at Gino's this summer
With an enviable location on the city’s historic quayside, INNSiDE by Meliá has unbeatable views of the River Tyne from its rooms and the open-air terrace of the hugely popular restaurant. The city itself is the perfect mix of history and contemporary culture – a vibrant combination that is perfectly reflected in this unique urban hotel.
Spacious and welcoming public areas and modern, bright rooms make this a great family destination for exploring the city and beyond. It’s also home to Gino D’Acampo’s riverside restaurant, serving a selection of the most popular Italian dishes and the UK’s largest selection of Franciacorta wines. There’s also a 24-hour gym for those who don’t want to miss out on their workout.
With so much to see and do within easy walking distance, this is the perfect base for a family mini-break. Explore the historic quayside, take a cruise up the river, get crafty at the Baltic, take in a show at one of the city’s many theatres, and visit the countless museums and galleries all within walking distance. The coast is just a 20-minute drive, or a short ride on the metro, or why not head inland to Hadrian’s Wall to discover more about the northerly outpost of the Roman Empire.
Whatever and wherever you decide to explore, you’ll love coming back to INNSiDE by Meliá and its riverside location.
The prize includes a two-night stay in a Studio Room for a family of four (two children aged under 11) and a two-course dinner at Gino’s for two adults including a bottle of house wine, and a two-course meal from the Bambino menu for the children. Plus a celebratory bottle of fizz in the room on arrival.
