About Stockton

Stockton sits on a peninsula across Newcastle Harbour from the CBD, reached by ferry or a longer drive around via Hexham. It has its own beach, a small town centre, and a distinct, separate feel from the rest of Newcastle.

Housing is a mix of older beach cottages and more recent builds, with the ferry giving quick access to the city for commuters.
