Durham is well known for its university life and cathedral, while attractions include Gala Theatre Durham and Durham Cathedral. This welcoming city has something for everyone including its rich culture, restaurants and sights like Adventure Valley and Diggerland.
Much of the city is walkable and the historic attractions are well worth seeing. It is clearly a university city but that gives a vibrancy missing in other cities. Parts of the city are a step back in time and are well worth exploring, day or night.

Cathedral and castle is a great place to visit. Take a guided tour if you're really interested. Eating at Fabios is excellent and great service and friendly and atmosphere. Really good breakfast at Chapters. Indoor market worth a nosey too.

Lots of history all around as well as new areas. Fairly good for clothes shopping if you like EWM, Next, Monsoon and New Look. Tesco's is the local supermarket for the many students here. Pleasant walk along the river when it's good weather.

Love Durham but not brilliant for wheelchair users as lots of cobbled streets and steps into coffee shops and restaurants.

"We stay here for the annual sela cup and its the perfect base for st james park, the city centre and train station. The staff are always friendly and the bag storage even on departing is a godsend. Rooms are pleasant enough and the beds are comfy. "
"Lovely hotel room, nice furnishings and decor. Staff were very helpful at breakfast with gluten free options being taken care of. Hotel building itself was stunning - especially bar and restaurant. "
