Do you mean Newcastle upon Tyne or Newcastle, Shropshire or Newcastle-under-Lyme?
Maybe one of the others in Wales or Scotland?

time of the year?
interests?
how many are we?

Assuming you mean Newcastle upon Tyne (let us know if its is one of the other Newcastles) . . . I'd make the first stop almost anywhere in the Yorkshire Dales -- literally scores of options. Aysgarth or Masham, or closer to Halifax - Bolton Abbey.

From there to Newcastle - Durham, or Hexham, Haltwhistle, Haydon Bridge (or anywhere else along Hadrian's Wall)

Normally we'd drive this route in about 2 and a half to 3 hours maximum, so I'm not sure why you'd want to stay overnight in between. If it's just to see more of that area, then consider Richmond. It's a typical old market town with several decent hotels or pubs with rooms and has a choice of decent restaurants in the centre. From Richmond up to N-O-T is just 60 to 90 minutes, traffic permitting, and is about 50 miles.
