Just a short walk from the village green at Walbottle and partly hidden by deciduous woodland, Mill Vale is a modern housing development that is a haven of calm and relaxation, and yet the vibrant heart of Newcastle is only five miles to the east. Twelve different house types mean there’s something eye-catching around every corner at Mill Vale.
