Sandhoe is a small, largely rural civil parish in Northumberland, England, lying in the gently undulating farmland just outside the market town of Hexham. The area is characterised by stone-built cottages, dispersed farms and quiet lanes and is popular with walkers and riders who enjoy the nearby river valleys and open countryside.
Historically agricultural, the parish retains a strong farming presence while many residents commute to nearby centres such as Hexham and Newcastle for work and services. Its location gives easy access to the archaeology and scenery of northern England - within reach of remnants of Roman Britain and Hadrian's Wall, and the upland panoramas towards the North Pennines AONB - so local life blends traditional rural rhythms with the pull of regional heritage and outdoor recreation.
