Hadston is a small village in coastal Northumberland, set near stretches of open farmland and the dunes and beaches of Druridge Bay. The setting gives easy access to the Northumberland coast and countryside, so it attracts walkers, birdwatchers and people looking for a quieter base not far from larger towns such as Amble, Alnwick and Morpeth.

Historically the settlement grew from farming roots and has long connections with the wider coastal and mining communities of the area, while today the local economy blends agriculture, tourism and commuter households. Social life is typically village-centred and community-minded, with residents making use of nearby nature reserves and the coast for leisure and events, rather than any large commercial centre within the village itself.
