It's getting close folks! We'll be christmas crackers by the end of November so if you have your favourite bars come early as it's always incredibly busy in this lovely, well organised event with old and new stall holders every year.

Sat & Sun: 10am-4pm

North was delighted to win a prestigious 'Distinctly Delicious' Award at this year's fabulous Darlington Food Festival! Beating stiff competition our Lemon & Lemon Sea Salt - a creamy, dreamy, delicate concoction with a hint of tang from the citrus salt - was a hit not only with our customers but with the judging panel!

North East chocolate goes flying off to Prague this month as North is announced as the official chocolatier to the fantastic Fringe Festival, now in its 15th year. If it all sounds a bit bonkers (and it is) then click here where founder, Carole Wears and Bev, tell journalist Jane Hall how, who, why and when!

A fantastic win at the Newcastle Business Awards for 'Artisan Producer of the Year' took North by delighted surprise. Bev had even took her cagoule and mittens off for the event and thankfully didn't have to make a speech. Huge thanks to all of those who have supported North, all the gorgeous messages we received and to The Beacon in Newcastle for the beast of an award which is a corker!

If you like your interiors like we at North Towers do, then we suspect you've already heard of RE in Corbridge, Northumberland where you can find everything from glass Madonna decorations and Edwardian celery vases to one-off pieces of furniture. As mutual fans North's Bev was recently asked to fill in their Blog's Re:velations, so click here for all its shocking, revelatory glory. It includes Vet In A Spin. You have been warned...

North has done it again! In a recent round up of the best Easter treats the North East region has to offer The Journal's taste test team awarded our Family Easter Hamper top marks - 5/5 - beating Betty's of Harrogate no less! Describing it as "the perfect Easter gift for any age,” read the whole piece here. 

North has won The Journal's (Dec 6th) Festive Chocolate Selection, beating stiff competition with our Angel Christmas Hamper! We're cock-a-hoop as no doubt the Angel would say, with comments such as: 'Definitely my favourite', 'the chocolate was glossy and dark and had a beautiful 'snap' with subtle flavours that play on the palette' and 'Luxurious with very high quality dark chocolate'. It's just made our Christmas...
