A New Development in the outskirts of Morpeth, Northumberland

Featuring a Range of Beautifully Crafted Homes

Congratulations on your new home at Edward's Birch, Morpeth!

Lovell has developed this website to ensure that all residents at Edward’s Birch, have access to a full range of travel information about the local area and beyond.

Have you considered the options for travelling around the local area?

Moving home sometimes can mean a big change in lifestyle. For instance, the way you travel to and from your new home would be different depending on the surroundings and amenities nearby. This is a great opportunity for you to re-consider the best travel options which are not only sustainable but also potentially save time and money.

Without a doubt, for many people driving your own car provides the most practical travel option, but how about making some journeys on foot, by bike, using public transport or even car sharing with someone else heading the same way? We hope the information on this website will answer some of these questions and you will find the resources useful in helping you to choose the best modes of travel. However, if you would like further help, tips and advice on travel options, our appointed Travel Plan Coordinator is here to assist. Simply send an email to info@getme2.co.uk and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

The Benefits of Sustainable Travel

Save Money

Did you know that owning a car is one of the biggest annual expenses for UK families? From fuel and insurance to maintenance and tax, the costs can quickly add up to thousands of pounds. But what if you could keep more of that money in your pocket while also helping the environment?

By choosing to drive less, you’re not just cutting costs—you’re making a real difference. Walking, cycling, or using public transport even a few times a week can lead to big savings and a greener, healthier lifestyle.

Small changes add up, so why not start today?

Live a Healthier Lifestyle

Walking, wheeling, or cycling isn’t just great for your fitness—it’s a mood booster too!

Getting your heart pumping releases those feel-good endorphins, making you feel happier and more energised. Plus, it’s an easy way to improve your overall health and wellbeing.

So why not take the scenic route and feel the benefits of the outdoors today?

Save Time

Traffic jams are a daily hassle, but for short trips like heading to the shops or doing the school run, walking or cycling can be the faster, stress-free option.

Skip the car, avoid hunting for parking, and enjoy a quicker, more enjoyable journey right to your destination.
