Middlesbrough is a large town situated on the south bank of the River Tees, and a stone’s throw from the North Yorkshire Dales. Kingsbrook Wood is located in the aspirational area of Stainsby, and not too far from Acklam.
This vibrant and exciting town boasts art galleries, museums, night life and a fantastic range of shops. Major landmarks in the city include the famous Transporter Bridge as well as Acklam Hall; not too far from the development. The Blade Runner inspired ‘Spectra-txt’ building offers something a little unique as this interactive tower of metal and fibre optics allows the public to change the colour of its lights by sending text messages.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, Albert Park offers 100 acres of quiet green space with a boating lake and roller skating rink. Hartlepool Marina is just up the road and is an award winning tourist attraction. Plenty of boutique stores and cosy restaurants can be found nearby such as in neighbouring market town, Yarm, voted the best high street in the country (BBC).
