Middlesbrough Town Hall

Those who want to experience the town’s nightlife will be strategically positioned in the town centre, as it’s where the best restaurants, bars, and clubs are located. It’s also where you’ll find the main train station, which provides links across Northern England.

The town is coupled with Stockton-on-Tees, a charming market town home to Durham University Queen’s Campus. Stockton is slightly more expensive than Middlesbrough, as it is considered a more refined town, but thanks to its student population, it has an excellent arts scene and nightlife.

Alternatively, stay in coastal towns Redcar or Saltburn-by-the-Sea to make the most of the Northern Coast. Connected to Middlesbrough by train, it’s easy to reach the town as and when you like.

There’s also a number of beautiful traditional farms, estates, and cottages to stay in in the countryside surrounding Middlesbrough, offering a quiet, peaceful, and nature-rich experience.

Most towns and cities surrounding Middlesbrough, including Stockton, Redcar, Saltburn, Darlington, Sunderland, and Newcastle, are easily reached by train. To truly make the most of your stay in Middlesbrough, a car is recommended.
